Do you really think you could work as I had to work to keep your mother from starvation? My dear child, you have lived in the lap of luxury all your life. You could no more earn a penny piece than fly over the moon! Kasia’s father laughs scornfully. This is justification for his decision to marry her off to a man she doesn’t love purely to save her from fortune hunters.

As Kasia gains the trust of the child, she earns first the respect and then the growing affection of the Lord.
