A mascotte who always brought good luck wherever she went.
Though a mere peasant, she is taken to the Prince of Piombino's palace
of Laurent, to avert his ill-luck; but by marrying Pippo (a shepherd)
she loses her gift. However, the prince is reminded that the children
of a mascotte are hereditary mascottes, and makes Bettina promise that
her first child shall be adopted by the prince. (See Mascotte.)
