"I can see that it's fine but, dear God, is there no way out of it? It's so horribly, so unspeakably sad."

We reached Rimini, and put up at an inn; after a short rest, Salimberi left me to call upon the teacher of music, and to make all necessary arrangements respecting me with him; but he soon returned, looking sad and unhappy; Bellino had died the day before.
There was a sad quietness in her expression, but there was no shrinking from him, and no distrust. "My wife need never be afraid of any thing or any body in this house." "I know that."
