"It sounds like men at a funeral." "Oh, they are very good ices, signorino. The Romans make splendid ices." Turkey followed the vitello. Maurice's guests were now completely at ease and perfectly happy. The consciousness that all this was going to be paid for, that they would not have to put their hands in their pockets for a soldo, warmed their hearts as the wine warmed their bodies.
VITELLO. A very peculiar ring-plain, 28 miles in diameter, on the S. side of the Mare Humorum, remarkable for having another nearly concentric ring-plain, of considerably less altitude within it, and a large bright central boss, overlooking the inner wall, 1700 feet in height.
Mary Gowd asked mockingly. Her Italian was like that of the Romans themselves, so soft, so liquid, so perfect. Tina nodded vigorously, her long earrings shaking. "Vitello" she began, her tongue clinging lovingly to the double l sound "Vee-tail-loh " "Ugh!" shuddered Mary Gowd. That eternal veal and mutton, pinkish, flabby, sickening! "What then?" demanded the outraged Tina.
But thinking afterward, that it would be better to obtain Niccolo Vitello as his friend than to renew hostilities with him, an arrangement was entered into by which the latter retained Citta di Castello, and the pope pacified Lorenzo as well as he could.
"Wine, cameriere, wine!" "You must not drink wine with the pasta, signorino!" cried Gaspare. "Only afterwards, with the vitello." "Have you ordered vitello? Capital! But I've finished my pasta and I'm thirsty. Well, what do you want to buy at the auction, Gaspare, and you, Amedeo, and you Salvatore?"
DE VICO. A conspicuous little ring-plain, about 9 miles in diameter, with a lofty border, some distance E. of Mersenius. LEE. An incomplete walled-plain, about 28 miles in diameter, on the S. side of the Mare Humorum, E. of Vitello, from which it is separated by another partial enclosure, with a striking valley, not shown in the published maps, running round its W. side.
On the fourth day after this, Marcantonio Colonna gave up the citadel, into which he had retired, on condition of safety to their persons and effects, but obliging himself on the other hand, together with the rest of the officers, not to bear arms against the King of France nor the Pisan Council till the next festival of S. Mary Magdalen; and not many days after, Bishop Vitello, who commanded in the castle with a hundred and fifty men, agreed to surrender it on terms of safety for life and goods.
At noon it was always full of hungry men devouring macaroni and vitello alla Milanese, and the steam of hot food and the sound of masticating jaws greeted Olive as she came in and took her place at a little table near the stove. The young waiter, Angelo, brought her a cup of coffee after the cheese and celery. "It gives courage," he said. "And I see you need that to-day, signorina."
Hainzel is interesting from its curious outline; Cichus for the huge yawning crater on its eastern wall; Capuanus for a brilliant shining crater also on its eastern wall; and Mercator for possessing bright craters on both its east and its west walls. Vitello has a bright central mountain and gains conspicuousness from its position at the edge of the dark Mare Humorum.
Here, if it be observed under a rising sun, a number of these objects will be seen extending from the region north of the ring-mountain Vitello in long undulating lines, roughly concentric with the western border of the "sea," and gradually diminishing in altitude as they spread out, with many ramifications, to a distance of 200 miles or more towards the north.
