A provincial matchmaking comedy in which a senile prince is manoeuvred towards a marriage, and a second story about a husband who befriends his late wife's lover.

This edition adds 59 plates of painting from 1807 to 1925, among them Tropinin, Kustodiev and Korzukhin, in Frederick Whishaw's translation.
