Andrea Doria plots to free Genoa from its foreign governor, using his wedding to conceal the conspiracy. He warns the governor to flee, but Vivaldi betrays him and he is imprisoned. Doria's supporter Sporta leads the people to besiege the fortress. Sporta kills the governor during the rescue, and Doria's younger brother kills Vivaldi.
Mélidore and Phrosine plan to elope, but her brothers oppose their marriage. After Mélidore appears to kill Aimar, he disguises himself as a dead hermit and secretly guides Phrosine to him with a nightly beacon. A storm extinguishes the light; Jule mistakes his torch for it and leaves Phrosine to drown, but Mélidore rescues her, and the brothers finally consent to the marriage.
