梅蕾吐艳，新春第一枝，芳香满园。纵欢小说

　　Mérette is a pretty child, living within a patrician, strictly Calvinist family in the Switzerland of the 19th century. She is happy, until her mother dies, and she blames God, and gives up her religion. Her family turns against her, the villagers reject her, and her priest drives her into isolation.
