Who ever thinks of Petrarch as the old, timeworn man? 'Who does not see him as when he first gazed on Laura? "Ogni altra cosa ogni pensier va fore; E sol ivi con voi rimansi Amore!" And Violante, thus absorbed in revery, forgot to keep watch on the belvidere. And the belvidere was now deserted. The wife, who had no other ideal to distract her thoughts, saw Riccabocca pass into the house.

But Rosamond could also sing "Black-eyed Susan" with effect, or Haydn's canzonets, or "Voi, che sapete," or "Batti, batti" she only wanted to know what her audience liked. Her father looked round at the company, delighting in their admiration.

And that fact accounts for the motor car, which has been my point of aim from the beginning of this paragraph. The motor car plies between Voi and the German line at exorbitant rates. Our plan was to have it take us and some galvanized water tanks out into the middle of the desert and dump us down there. So after breakfast we hunted up the owner.

An impalpable red dust sifts through and into everything. When a man descends at Voi for dinner he finds his fellow-travellers have changed complexion.

A chance dab with a white napkin comes away like fresh paint, however.

"Il giovane ufficiale della Fratellanza americana grida: "Nessun Wilson potra togliere all'Italia il diritto al conseguimento del sou diritto al diritto che i tricolore italiano sventoli per sempre sulla Torre di Fiume. Io e i miei colleghi sentiama per Fiume lo stesso sentimento che provate voi, o cittadini di Bologna e d'Italia. Togliervi Fiume e una delle piu grandi barbarie del secolo.

And filled with one of the purest joys of the young literary life and therefore untouched by pessimistic counsel, he left the despairing actor. The second, a brighter and more successful man, talked with Paul for a long time about all manner of things.

She picked up from the spot where he had thrown his shawl a handsome morocco-bound pocket copy of Dante, and opening it to discover the name of the owner, she saw written on the fly-leaf in a bold and beautiful hand, "S. E. M., Boboli Gardens, Florence. Lasciate ogni speranza voi ch' entrate." "What does this mean, grandpa?" She held up the book and pointed out the words of the dread inscription.
