She burnt it unopened. I leave it to you to consider whether you have been betrayed and who has betrayed you. The secret was bought. Beppo himself caught the words, 'from a mercenary Italian. The duchess tells me that Countess Anna is in the habit of alluding to Countess d'Isorella in those terms." Carlo stretched his arms like a man who cannot hide the yawning fit.
"Countess d'Isorella, I have the extreme honour." Wilfrid marvelled to hear this titled and lovely woman speaking almost in tones of humility in reply to such outrageous insolence. She craved a private interview. Irma was temporarily expelled, and then Violetta stooped to ask what the Greek's reason for his behaviour could be.
"Meantime, his brothers in arms had broken up and entered Piedmont, and he remained waiting for you still. You are thinking that he had not waited a month. But if four months finished Lombardy, less than one month is quite sufficient to do the same for us little beings. He met the Countess d'Isorella here. You have to thank her for seeing him at all, so don't wrinkle your forehead yet.
"This doesn't leave me a choice, then," said Victoria, joining her humour. "Ah, but think over it," Laura suggested. "No! not think at all," cried Vittoria. "You do not fear Carlo's anger?" "If I think, I am weak as water. Let us go." Countess d'Isorella wrote to Carlo: "Your Vittoria is away after the king to Pavia.
Carlo's marriage is too surprising and delicious. I shall be laughing presently. I hinted at his marriage I thought it among the list of possible things, no more to see if that crystal pool, called Violetta d'Isorella, could be discoloured by stirring. Did you watch her face?
Countess d'Isorella proved her friendship to have survived the old passion, by travelling expressly from Turin to obtain leave to visit him in prison. It was a marvellous face to look upon between prison walls.
She was ashamed also to have it thought, even by Carlo, that she had not gathered every detail of his occupation, so that she could not argue against him, and had to submit to see her dearest wishes lightly swept aside. "I beg you to tell me what you think of Countess d'Isorella; not the afterthought," she said to Vittoria. "She is beautiful, dear Countess Ammiani." "Call me mother now and then.
Making smooth allowances for a feeling natural to his youth and the circumstances, she said, "I am your sister, for you were my husband's brother in arms, Carlo. We two speak heart to heart: I sometimes fancy you have that voice: you hurt me with it more than you know; gladden me too! My Carlo, I wish to hear why Countess d'Isorella objects to your marriage." "She does not object."
Laura Piaveni travelled with Countess d'Isorella and the happy Adela Sedley, from Lago Maggiore. Laura came, as she cruelly told her friend, for the purpose of making Victoria's excuses to the duchess. "Why can she not come herself?" Amalia persisted in asking, and began to be afflicted with womanly curiosity. Laura would do nothing but shrug and smile, and repeat her message.
He echoed Agostino, but Agostino does not sting as he did, and Carlo cannot avoid seeing what the king has sacrificed. Perhaps the Countess d'Isorella has shown him promises of fresh aid in the king's handwriting. Suffering has made Carlo Alberto one with the Republicans, if he had other ambitions once. And Carlo dedicates his blood to Lombardy: he does rightly. Dear countess my mother!
