The story of the novel is a simple one. Both Daphnis and Chloe were abandoned as infants by well-born parents who found themselves unable to take care of them, and each was separately rescued and brought up by shepherds, Daphnis by Lamon and Chloe by Dryas. They grow up together, and gradually fall in (very innocent) love. Adventures befall both, including a visit by pirates, and towards the end of the story the two sets of parents are re-found, and Daphnis and Chloe are able to marry. The setting is a purely pastoral one, and the landscape as well as the seasons are a vital component of the charm the novel has never lost. The final scene is in the bridal chamber, when the two lovers enjoy the fruits of married love.
