The omnibus driver leaned from his seat and swore. Corpo di Bacco! Did he think the boat would wait all day for the sake of one passenger? As it was, they were ten minutes late and would have to gallop every step of the way. The turmoil of ejaculation and gesture was approaching a climax; when suddenly, who should come sauntering into the midst of it but the young American man himself!
Open-eyed, open- mouthed, she stared at the tide of foaming steeds, like a maiden martyr gazing at the on-rushing waves of ocean! "Caramba!" said Marmalada, "voila une jeune fille pas trop bien gardee!" Giovanelli turned pale, and, muttering Corpo di Bacco, quaffed a carafon of green Chartreuse, holding at least a quart, which stood by him in its native pewter. Young Ponto merely muttered, "Egad!"
She had on her magenta Sunday shawl, and the color of her wrinkled cheeks almost matched it. "What is Bertuccio?" asked the girl. "A kitten?" "A kitten!" gasped Assunta. "Corpo di Bacco!" swore Giacomo. Then the two brown ones devoted mind and body to explanation. Giacomo gesticulated and waved the napkin he had in his hand; Assunta shook her black silk apron: and they both spoke at once.
That same night he left the town for the second time: and next day he went and buried himself in a mountain village, hidden from the world by driving blizzards. There he would bury his heart, stupefy his thoughts, and forget, and forget!... "Epero leva su, vinci l'ambascia Con l'animo che vinea ogni battaglia, Se col suo grave corpo non s'accascia.
We ought to reconcile the tenor and la Clarina; otherwise the season will be ruined in Venice." The invitation was accepted. "Gondoliers!" called Cataneo. "One minute," said Vendramin. "Memmi is waiting for me at Florian's; I cannot leave him to himself. We must make him tipsy to-night, or he will kill himself to-morrow." "Corpo santo!" exclaimed the Duke.
"A man who can't mend a hole in his own donkey can never demean himself by patching up my great kettle." "Lord, sir!" said the tinker, archly, "if I had known that poor Neddy had had two sitch friends in court, I'd have seen he vas a gintleman, and treated him as sitch." "Corpo di Bacco!" quoth the doctor, "though that jest's not new, I think the tinker comes very well out of it."
"Are they cruel to travellers?" said a beautiful young Venetian lady, who had been hanging on the gentleman's arm. "Cruel, signora!" echoed the estafette, giving a glance at the lady as he put spurs to his horse. "Corpo del Bacco! they stiletto all the men, and as to the women "
"Corpo di Dio!" said a man of huge stature, pressing onward, like some bulky ship, casting the noisy waves right and left from its prow, "this is hot work; but for what, in the holy Mother's name, do ye crowd so? See you not, Sir Ribald, that my right arm is disabled, swathed, and bandaged, so that I cannot help myself better than a baby? And yet you push against me as if I were an old wall!"
I pressed through the crowd to obtain a nearer view, and as I did so a sudden savage movement of Neri's bound body caused the gendarmes to cross their swords in front of his eyes with a warning clash. The brigand laughed hoarsely. "Corpo di Cristo!" he muttered "think you a man tied hand and foot can run like a deer? I am trapped I know it!
How do I know that your Greek was not an addle-headed ass like yourself? Corpo di Dio! His treasure of Saba may be a piece of moon-madness akin to this tragi-comic plot of yours." "I would have bent her to my will. I could make her go to this Austrian dog and tell him begone. I could force her to confess to the Englishman that she had deceived him." "Saetta!
