After all, I cannot conclude without repeating that I believe the whole world cannot equal the lovely, the divine Anna St. Ives: and, whatever else you may say or think of me, do not lead her to imagine I am unjust to her supreme beauty, and charms. An insinuation of that kind I would never forgive Never! Sir Arthur St. Ives to Abimelech Henley Paris, Hotel d'Espagne, Rue Guenegaude,

The bed was in the middle of the room; the table which stood beside it was upset, and the night-lamp lay thrown on the floor. "I hope that no accident has befallen your majesty," said Constant, rushing toward the emperor. "No," said Napoleon. "But this accursed white spectre was here again. It wanted to treat me like General d'Espagne; to upset my bed and throttle me.

It was from 1824 to 1826 that the poet published his principal poems. It was in 1826 that his romance of Cinq-Mars appeared. Victor Hugo published Les Orientates in 1829; Alfred de Musset, Les Contes d'Espagne et d'Italie in 1830. It may be said then that before the Revolution of 1830, romanticism had reached its complete expansion.

The King always opened the grand ball by leading out his sister, and each equaled the other in majesty and grace. I have often seen them dancing the Pavane d'Espagne, which must be performed with the utmost majesty and grace.

Out from Paris, on the old Route d'Espagne, running from the capital to the frontier, down which rolled the royal cortèges of old, lie Maintenon and its famous chateau, some sixty odd kilometres from Paris and twenty from Rambouillet.

She had arrived the night before; she had taken a room in the Hôtel d'Espagne, in the Rue de Médicis, opposite the Luxembourg Garden. I was as yet the only member of the old set she had looked up. Of course I knew where she had gone first but not to cry to kiss it to place flowers on it. She could not cry not now. She was too happy, happy, happy.

In SPAIN, they have a dance, called, Les Folies d'Espagne, which is performed either by one or by two, with castanets. There is a dress peculiarly adapted to it, which has a very pleasing effect, as well as the dance itself. In FRANCE, their Contre-dances, are drawn from the true principles of the art, and the figures and steps are generally very agreeable.

The air wafted her over to the enemy of her house, and, by the thunder of her wrath, she awakened him from his slumber." "And that was the reason why the emperor sent for you last night?" "Yes, I had the honor of narrating to him the history of the White Lady," said Schluter, laughing scornfully. "I did so, and told him also what happened here to General d'Espagne."

I expect she will soon put on boots and buckskin, and horsewhip her fellows herself; for she improves apace. Once more farewell. Anna Wenbourne St. Ives to Louisa Clifton Paris, Hotel d'Espagne, Rue Guenegaude, Fauxbourg St. Germain After abundance of jolting in carriages, sea sickness, and such-like trifling accidents, incidental to us travellers, here we are at last, dear Louisa.
