Chremylus, a poor Athenian, visits the oracle of Delphi
to ask how he should raise his son.
Following the god’s prophecy, he persuades the first man
he meets outside to come to his house.
The blind and ragged old man proves to be Plutus,
the god of wealth himself!
Chremylus decides to make sure the old man
gets his eyesight back, so that he may help
only the just and the virtuous from then on.
However, not everyone is happy with this plan…
