In this case the,hei� is a confirmed misogamist. Atfirst he refuses to marry pointblank.Upon moral suasion 'being exercisedby some weird actors, who playas hisfriends, a great desire for the moneyawakens in his soul. In the secondact he proposes to as many youngladies as the title indicates. Despitehis oncoming avalanche of wealth,they will have .none of him-one isalready engaged, another longs for apurely !Platonic affection, 'a third desiI'J!s to wed a ca'f'eman, a :fourth com-_miserates his lack of proper romanticchivalry. and so on.
