Far more noteworthy than Colleoni's own monument is that of his daughter Medea. She died young in 1470, and her father caused her tomb, carved of Carrara marble, to be placed in the Dominican Church of Basella, which he had previously founded. It was not until 1842 that this most precious masterpiece of Antonio Amadeo's skill was transferred to Bergamo. Hic jacet Medea virgo.
"And if you want to know what I think," he retorted, "it is that I know you have." Daisy hesitated a moment, the snow was white on her shoulder and she shook her cloak. "I hate concealment," she said. "I found yards and yards of muslin and a pair of Amadeo's eyebrows in that woman's bedroom the very day she went away."
At last the woman glanced at her clock on the sideboard. "Eight o'clock," said she. "I wonder what Amadeo's doing, now?" "Well, that's according," answered Berlanga. "When did he get to Bilbao?" "This morning." "Then he's probably been asleep part of the time, and now I guess he's playing dominoes in some café.

The lowest one stuck a little, and she had to use force to it.... The smile was struck from her face, as it flew open. Inside it were billows and billows of the finest possible muslin. Fold after fold of it she drew out, and with it there came a pair of false eyebrows. She recognised them at once as being Amadeo's. The muslin belonged to Pocky as well.
