Yet ame damnee, or master devil, whichever he might be I felt sure that the key of our success lay in unearthing him. So, while the Princess tracked her brother, I begged off at whiles to haunt the purlieus of the Palazzo Verde for three days without success. But on the fourth I made a small discovery. Halfway up this lane a narrow door broke the wall of the Palazzo Verde's garden.
Those who were in the secret did not wonder at her luck. She was the âme damnee of Flora Bellasys. Whenever the latter ventured on any unusually daring escapade, she was always really accompanied by Miss Thornton, or supposed to be so. How the influence was originally acquired I know not; at the time I speak of she had no more volition left than a Russian Grenadier.
He could not afford to buy milk; but he had fed the boy for more than a year with rice gruel and ame syrup. I said that the child looked very strong, and none the worse for lack of milk. "That," declared Manyemon, in a tone of conviction bordering on reproof, "is because the dead mother nurses him. How should he want for milk?" And the boy laughed softly, as if conscious of a ghostly caress.
In a most thrilling scene weeping women and children bid them farewell. A vast crowd witnesses the affair. A boy suddenly rushes in shouting: "Napoleon is coming." The crowd hurries away to see him, and cries of "Long live Napoleon" are heard in the distance. Such was Vienna a hundred years ago, and it is still the same. Une ville sans âme. I pass on the criticism without comment.
He has been spoken of, indeed, as the ame damnee of Cesare Borgia; but that is a purely romantic touch akin to that which gave the same designation to Richelieu's Father Joseph.
"What a wonderful imagination you old maids have!" exclaimed the Baroness. "To hear you talk, Lisbeth, one might really believe you." "You see, mamma, he is a Pole, and so accustomed to the knout that Lisbeth reminds him of the joys of his native land." They all three laughed, and Hortense sang Wenceslas! idole de mon ame! instead of O Mathilde. Then for a few minutes there was a truce.
She could not send him from her at once, yet with every passing second Death drew stealthily nearer and nearer. Time swept on relentless and inflexible. "Perhaps you will be disappointed in me one of these days, find me depressing and full of moods. I've always been so lonely, you know, till I met you. Je suis une âme detachée." "Never again while I'm alive! I think of you and with you.
Everything characteristic of Verlaine was expressed in these adorable verses of the Fetes Galantes: Le soir tombait, un soir equivoque d'automne, Les belles se pendant reveuses a nos bras, Dirent alors des mots si specieux tout bas, Que notre ame depuis ce temps tremble et s'etonne
Il n'est jamais permis de deteriorer une ame humaine pour l'avantage des autres, ni de faire un scelerat pour le service des honnetes gens. As the reader approaches the termination of this narrative, and looks back upon the many scenes he has passed, perhaps, in the mimic representation of human life, he may find no unfaithful resemblance to the true.
For surely this is the habit of the true poet, and marks the vigour and recurrent origin of poetry, that a man should get his head full of rhythms and catches, and that they should jumble up somehow into short songs of his own. ... Son beau corps est en terre Son âme en Paradis. Tu ris? Et ris, tu ris, ma Bergère, Ris, ma Bergère, tu ris.
