Sophia Chrysanthis is in her twenties when the German archaeologist, Herr Obermann, comes wooing. He wants a Greek bride who is able to read Homer. Soon, Sophia is tying canvas sacking to her legs so that she can kneel on the hard ground in the trench, removing the earth methodically, and identifying salient points.
