She is in love with her father’s steward, Fabien, and plans to elope with him. However, Fabien loves Douce’s private tutor and companion, Irène.

Irène has higher aspirations, however, and when Engelbert de Bonafé reveals his intentions to marry her, she rejects Fabien. Realising her moment has come, Douce reveals her love to Fabien and tells him she is prepared to give up everything for him. The two lovers plan to set sail for a new life together, but their happiness proves to be short-lived…
