Give us a ring (reflections of Valhalla)

Avid readers of this blog will recall that Wolfram Bettel's nephew Leporello Swinson has asked Cortally Bakewell for the address of a possible pen-friend. Bakewell sent him Prigentia's address, and an earnest exchange of letters  has developed between them. When Leporello learns that Prigentia's mother will be visiting Gundelfingen he drops his commitments in Dubrovnik, and returns home to show her and her companions (Emelda and Sevalanz) around the sites of the Roßkopf. The young musician makes a great impression on Grapella Colswain, who decides that (despite the age difference) this beautiful man would be the perfect partner for her daughter. Leporello Swinson however is struck by the beauty of Grapella, and falls for the mother rather than the daughter.
