And your pearls! You shall have . . . emeralds set in a footstool! Every soldo is for you, carissima, it is all yours, YOURS!" Gently she stopped him.

"Ne touchez pas ne touchez pas!" I refrained, somewhat wonderingly, from touching. Madame Brandt explained. "He thinks you would spoil the magnetic influence. It is a superstition of his." "But you are touching." "He believes I have his magnetism whatever that may be," she said, with a smile. "Would you like to see an experiment? Anastasius!" "Carissima."
