The play is divided into three acts, each focusing on a different aspect of Cain's story. In the first act, Cain is shown as a proud and rebellious figure who refuses to accept God's authority. In the second act, Cain is forced to confront the consequences of his actions and the reality of sin. In the final act, Cain struggles with his own mortality and the idea of divine justice. The play is known for its powerful language and its exploration of complex philosophical themes.
