John, a struggling writer living in Fetter Lane, falls in love with a girl he meets almost by chance, but she is promised to a richer man. Their whimsical courtship moves from greengrocers and ballad-mongers to Kensington Gardens and finally to Venice, the city of beautiful nonsense, where everything must be decided.
