A fragment from Oliver Wendell Holmes presents a speaker lamenting aging and longing to relive youth while balancing desires for love and family. The listening angel notes the impossibility of being both boy and husband, ending with the speaker choosing to please the gray-haired boy by the dawn.
In a Paris salon a grand testament is opened by notary Dubois. Anne, sister to the deceased, receives a prayer book and a share, while Madame de Villeboys and Vatry push for cash and titles. A hidden fortune in the book shocks all, and Anne’s acquirement of a hotel follows. The scene closes with a poignant image of a mother and son praying beside Heures de la Vierge.
