English tale of a young cheerful girl whose glimpse of an ancestress' portrait and dream of her life - deserted at last by her lover - convinces the girl to die in her youth and beauty while her lover still cares. Odd tale of maiden's self-destruction rather than face life; she dies in her mother's arms not her lover's.
