But the good King Rene, taking in the situation at a glance, ordered Bertrand to marry the shepherdess, and the Count, fearing his majesty's displeasure, consented to the ceremony in private, but later refused to acknowledge her publicly. In spite of the girl's entreaties, Bertrand goes to war. Before leaving he tells his wife that so soon as she is able to secure a ring which he wears on his finger, then only will be publicly acknowledge her. The peasant-wife swears to conquer the Count and, woman-like, proceeds at once to gain the desired end. Joining him at camp she learns he is infatuated with a young woman of high rank who, however, does not return his affection. Taking fresh courage, the wife in name only seeks out this woman and tells her story. The heart of her listener is touched and her aid is won, whereupon a social affair is arranged, to which Bertrand is invited as the guest of honor. Thinking himself specially favored, the Count is for the moment thrown off his guard and readily allows the clever hostess to remove his ring from his finger. She contrives to transfer the much-wanted jewel to the waiting wife, who brings it in triumph to her husband, the Count. Realizing he has been outwitted, and recognizing his wife's cleverness, he finds he really loves her and willingly proclaims her The Lady of Narbonne, his wife.
