Synopsis

A landowner looks for a suitable husband for his daughter, and thinks of the male neighbour. The man visits the daughter and asks for her hand. Apparently, she is flattered and all is well, but when the man's tongue slips at the girl, she feels like he insulted her. The girl is proud to be the daughter of a rich father and she boasts that her estate is greater than that of the man. The two continue an intense argument. The father appears and sees the situation as not very favourable, draws his sword, and threatens the man: He has a chronically weak heart. What will happen next?
