"Such a name is in itself higher than a title." Don Cesare bowed to Don Giovanni as though to say, "You see! thus it is!" The subject would have simmered down, had not Tornik at this point set it boiling, by saying in an undertone to Nina, "Why all this fuss? It is stupid, don't you think?" He spoke in French, carelessly articulated, but the sharp ears of Carpazzi overheard.
Nina had already observed the young girl in question and she and Carpazzi made their way toward her. Gradually other young people joined them until a merry group was formed at that side of the room. The boy had real talent, and the princess had denied herself not a few things in order to help him complete his education.
All that Carpazzi said was perfectly true. There was little therefore that Minotti could have answered. He was a man of plebeian origin. His father, a rich speculator, had bought a piece of property and assumed the title that went with it. To a Roman the name Carpazzi was a great deal higher than that of any number of dukes and princes.
