Perdita

Perdita was a character in William Shakespeare's play The Winter's Tale.
She was a baby in Act III Scene III, during which Antigonus left her to fend for herself. In the published version of the The Winter's Tale from 1623, this action precipitated Antigonus's departure from the play with the stage direction "Exit, pursued by a bear" while an alternative draft saw him leave by entering his blue box which then vanished. (PROSE: Exit, by Another Means)
