There's little rain here, so it's not like Ireland, and the green is not so green; but the flowers are marvellously bright, and the birds sing almost as well as they sing in Ireland, though there's no lark.

Ivanov stood still and Lydia went up to him. She had dark shadows under her eyes, and the hand of time already bearing away her youth and beauty lay upon her marvellously white skin, at her lips and on her cheeks, in faint, scarcely visible wrinkles.
