Synopsis:
Having sworn that he would kill any wife who deceived him, the Count Grazia is forced to make good when he discovers the Countess entertaining a gentleman friend in her rooms. The Count attempts to strangle the Countess, but thinks better of it and sends her away. He tells his friends, however, that he has killed her and thrown her body in the lake. Which leads to a comic funeral and the wife's return, veiled, to watch herself buried. After which she proves her innocence and wins back the Count.
