A Duke adores her sister, the daughter of the house her brother, and for herself she has many protestations in honour of her charms: nor are they empty ones. She can confound Mrs. Melville, if she pleases to, by exposing an adorer to lose a friend.
The very fact that the writer in the Outlook can talk about such people as poor shows that he does not understand what the modern problem is. The reader will remember that when the Periwinkle-girl was adored by two Dukes, the poet added "A third adorer had the girl, A man of lowly station; A miserable grovelling Earl Besought her approbation."
And blissful indeed was the fortune of Olindo; for love, so proved as his, awoke love in the noble bosom of Sophronia; and so he passed from the stake to the marriage-altar, a husband, instead of a wretch condemned a lover beloved, instead of a hopeless adorer. Canto ii. st. 16. Argument.
Margaret meant to marry him if she married at all, for he had been faithful in his devotion to her nearly three years; and his rivalry with Constantine Logotheti, her other serious adorer, had brought some complications into her life. But on mature reflection she was sure that she did not wish to marry any one for the present.
The insulter did not insult; the adorer outraged the object of adoration. She, who buffeted, deified him. Her tones imparted to her violent yet amorous words an indescribable Promethean grandeur. According to Æschylus, in the orgies in honour of the great goddess the women were smitten by this evil frenzy when they pursued the satyrs under the stars.
Bainrothe had carried his injustice and perfidy toward me, but for the loquacity of Lieutenant Raymond, a young adorer of mine, who revealed to me, the very evening before I left Saratoga, along with his passion a hopeless one of course, which, but for this connection, would not be noted here the strategic course of my guardian.
Bradshaw somewhat acrimoniously declared, that they were all desperately bent on capturing husbands, then assuredly the poor girls went about their enterprise with singular lack of prudence. Each had her role. Barbara's was to pose as the adorer of Italy, the enthusiastic glorifier of Italian unity.
It neither troubled him nor invited though the girl was beautiful enough, he continued to admit. So were her pearls and neither were genuine, thought Barry with more humor than a former adorer has any right to feel. Then he amended his thought. Something of her was real the invitation in that letter the inclination that he had always known she felt.
At a small writing-table sat the beautiful La Meronville. She was folding this billet when a page, fantastically dressed, entered, and, announcing Lord Borodaile, was immediately followed by that nobleman. Eagerly and almost blushingly did La Meronville thrust the note into her bosom, and hasten to greet and to embrace her adorer.
And while consuming adoration he had a young Dionysian way of inhaling a cigarette a way which Dionysus, poor god, might have exhibited, had tobacco grown with the grape on Mount Cithaeron and a way of exhaling a cloud of smoke, holier than the fumes of incense in the nostrils of the adorer, which moved me at once to envy and exasperation.
