Beatrice!" cried the Marchesa, with the same affectation of horror as before. "Dear mamma, are you uncomfortable? Oh no! I see now. You are horrified. Have I said anything dreadful?" she asked, turning to San Miniato. "Anything dreadful? What an idea! Really, Marchesa carissima, I was just beginning to explain to Donna Beatrice what charm is, when you cut me short.

Here he placed his hands together and repeated, like a child who is begging for something, "It will be some days before Pomponia returns; so do this, diva, do this, carissima." "But Pomponia will do as she likes," answered Lygia, blushing still more deeply at mention of the pronuba. And again they were silent, for love had begun to stop the breath in their breasts.

Were not the others so taken up with the throbbing influences of the moment they must have heard the rustling of the leaves. But they paid little heed to external affairs. The Italian was speaking.

He slipped his arm round her, there in the shade.

Pray give me your advice, Marchesa carissima." "Of course you are right you always are. You were right about the moon yesterday though I did not notice that it was shining here when we came home," she added thoughtfully, not by any means satisfied with the insufficient demonstration he had given her at first. "No doubt," replied San Miniato indifferently.

For herself she felt at that moment equal to any struggle involving either cunning or courage. She could combat to death for one she loved. "Who was that man, carissima? Why was he here at this hour of the night? You are a little imprudent, are you not, to receive such visitors without me?" said Madame, having caught a glimpse of the intruder's retiring figure. Cynthia laughed.

Morning is dawning as I write, and all the feeling of my soul can be expressed in one word, the sublimest of all words, which is intelligible to many of different languages and different races.

When Paul of Tarsus teaches me your faith, I will receive baptism at once, I will come here, gain the friendship of Aulus and Pomponia, who will return to the city by that time, and there will be no further hindrance, I will seat thee at my hearth. Oh, carissima! carissima!"
