Has the Illustrissimo any further commands? 'None, began the Chevalier; then, suddenly, 'This unhappy infant is it healthy? Did it need any of your treatment? 'Signor, no. It was a fair, healthy bambina of a year old, and I heard the mother boasting that it had never had a day's illness.
I had the honour to purchase from her certain jewels, that the Eccellenza will probably redeem; and even pardon, sir I cut off and bought of her, her hair. 'Her hair! exclaimed the Chevalier, in horror. 'The miserable girl to have fallen so low! Is it with you, fellow? 'Surely, Illustrissimo.
The landlord looked after him, muttering to himself: "Ah! so not finding the excellent young signor, he has turned his back on the beautiful young signora. I know it! The other ancient and illustrious signor, who raised the devil in Beppo's cottage last year, and carried off the bride, was her father; but this illustrissimo is his father, wherefore he cares not to bring away the lovely signora."
You wander around through the aisles of trim-cut lime-trees, bullied and overborne by the insolent statues, and expect at every turn to come upon intriguing spectres in bag-wigs, immense hoops and patches.

I had been asleep for about an hour, perhaps, when I thought I heard a voice near me repeating "Illustre Signore!" I did not wake.

Like Don Sebastian, George read this precious effusion of a pompous, consequential, pig-headed official twice before commenting upon it. Then he turned to the secretary and said: "Senor, are you cognisant of the contents of this letter?" "I believe so, in a general way, Illustrissimo," answered Senor Montalvo.
Illustrissimo, Eccellenza, Altezza, will sometimes open the purse, when plain "Mosshoe" will not. The profession of a beggar is by no means an unprofitable one. A great many drops finally make a stream. The cost of living is almost nothing to them, and they frequently lay up money enough to make themselves very comfortable in their old age.
