📕 On the very doorstep of a dignified marriage, George experiences a moment of weakness -- ardent seduction and wayward sexual conquest! -- only to suffer horrendous remorse and fear, living as he does in a time when syphilis is raging across Paris, killing men, women and children . . . and his dread only grows when his doctor forbids him to marry -- for four years!
