Don instantly introduces himself and begs her to pose for him. At first Mary refuses, but he insists and she finally consents. In his luxurious studio. Don poses Mary in the robes of the Madonna, and is about to start on the canvas when a poor woman enters with a baby and asks for charity. A happy thought strikes Don, he places the babe in Mary's arms and starts to work out his masterpiece of the Madonna and child. Some months later the picture is finished and Mary leaves. A number of art critics are called in and pronounce Don's canvas a masterpiece. Mr. Knighton, a financier, is so impressed with the work that he purchases and presents it to the cathedral of Saint Hillaire. Many weeks later Don is walking to his studio when he again meets Mary on the street. She is ragged and tries to pass him unobserved, but he stops her and asks why she has sunk to such depths of misery. With tears in her eyes Mary tells him she fears she is lost, but Don points to the distant cathedral, tells her of the wondrous painting within its portals and leads her there. Kneeling before the painting of herself in the robes of the Madonna, Mary pours out the bitterness of her heart while the bishop and Don watch. But the light of salvation has come to the poor girl and, in the weeks that follow, she becomes a nun and prepares to devote her life to the glorious Kingdom that has led her to the light.
