The people take an intense interest in each other, and love each other unusually. Possibly they may hate each other as cordially when occasion offers. It is a charming town, and the society is delightful. I wish I were well enough to enjoy it. For people in the early stages of consumption this climate is perfect, owing to its equability, as also for bronchial affections.
And Gwendolen was not without her after-thoughts that her husband's eyes might have been on her, extracting something to reprove some offence against her dignity as his wife; her consciousness telling her that she had not kept up the perfect air of equability in public which was her own ideal. But Grandcourt made no observation on her behavior. All he said as they were driving home was
Pittoni was in love with her and continued so till her death. His suit lasted for twelve years, and like Petrarch, he still sighed, still hoped, but never succeeded.

"Ah! undoubtedly; I never thought that she loved him so much as you imagine I did: but he pleased her; she admired him.
