"It is not tiring you?" "Ma che! I must see that you begin well and with the right people. Some painters are canaglia. Ah, I know that," the girl said with a little sigh and a shrug of her shoulders.
The poodle, probably excited by the unusualness of all the proceedings, suddenly sank on to its front paws and began barking. 'Tartaglia canaglia! the old man hissed at it. But at that instant the girl's face was transformed. Her eyebrows rose, her eyes grew wider, and shone with joy. Sanin looked round ...
