A rather too-cheerful novella. The young, idle narrator is thrown out by his hard-working father, so taking his violin he decides to travel the world. His handsome appearance, good-nature and music ensure every encounter is a happy one. He is either comfortably one with nature or given work as gardener, treated like royalty in a castle, or shown to the beauty he fell in love with. After several botched meetings he is finally happily married.
