Herminia, a boxed girl who lost her father and lived alone, is devoted to working in the territory she inherited. He tells her that he will not marry Cestor, the second son of a great lord, but it seems that he's making fun of him. Herminia is a "doll" at the dubious store Atellana recommended by Cestor. He meets a young man named Sanni. He could work, he'd hire a smart man, he'd hire a servant, and he'd "buke." Herminia. She's a kind, gentle, but Zanni has a secret.
