A young American scholar and his
bride takes a villa in Florence, where
the husband delves in the libraries for
data for a work on Michael Angelo and
his times he proposes TO write. The
brides dearest girl friend comes 10
visit them there. The bride Is a wo-

erature or the Renaissance. But her
friend enters ardently into the spirit
OF his work and helps him day after
day. Together the man and woman
dig Information from dusty tones AMI
bend together over yellow manuscripts.
A curious and wonderful mental SYM
patty springs up between them. AS
their studies take them back into the
atmosphere OF the middle ages. they
seem TO themselves detached from
the present and like re-embodle6
spirits OF that far-off time. The wife
learns OF this spell which their liter
AIRY labor has cast upon them. She
sees what TO her appears her duty.
Since she cannot satisfy her husbands
intellectual needs. she will step aside
10 make room for the woman who can,
She makes up her mind 10 give him
up 10 her friend. Her offer TO free
him brings the man TO his senses. The
story ends with husband and wife re-
united.
