The Florentine, Benvenuto Cellini, was the most famed of gold- mith of the 16th century, but he was far more than' that, a great lover, a gay philanderer, a brave soldier and with a temper that was forever keeping him in hot water. The one girl he really loved, Della Santini, was reported dead of the plague. The enmity of a Cardinal' in Rome and an affair discovered with a noble born widow, drives him from that city. Back" in his native Flor ence, he is favoured by Duke Alessandro, one of the greai Medicia, but he makes many enemies. On a trip to Naples to get the per- jest Greek features of a young lady, he pays more attention to love than to art, and is cornered in a gorden by her brother and her fiance.

Then he saw in the doorway of a shabby building a girl of such exquisite beauty that he stopped and stared at her. Her figure gave evidence, from what he could Judge, of being quite as perfect as her face.
