"I do hope you found the yard in order." The yellow dress she was wearing did not match the tone of her voice, and the frilly blue apron tied round her waist belied the frostiness of her gray-green eyes. Nevertheless, her rancor was real.

Madame des Grassins was one of those lively, plump little women, with pink-and-white skins, who, thanks to the claustral calm of the provinces and the habits of a virtuous life, keep their youth until they are past forty. She was like the last rose of autumn, pleasant to the eye, though the petals have a certain frostiness, and their perfume is slight.
It was impossible to believe they could ever rot there was a kind of joyous frostiness we went in and asked a little man what kind of grapes they were, and he answered like a phonograph, without looking or showing politeness: 'Black Hamburgs and White Muscats of Alexandria' your old Sienkiewicz never said anything as beautiful as that, 'White Muscats of Alexandria " "Dear little heart," I said.
