There was nothing in the situation for him to beat his breast about. "Well, all that we can do is to wait for them," he said. "Oh yes," she answered easily.

Sarebbe partita col suo cocchiere. La Principassa ha 27 anni. Twenty-seven years old, and scomparve scampered on the 9th November. You see by the added detail that she departed with her coachman.
