One of the Englishmen returned very briskly, "What had they to do there? that they came on shore without leave; and that they should not plant or build upon the island; it was none of their ground." "Why," says the Spaniard, very calmly, "Seignior Inglese, they must not starve." The Englishman replied, like a rough tarpaulin, "They might starve; they should not plant nor build in that place."
"Where is my father? Oh, show me my father?" I whispered faintly, as she raised me in the bed and held a large spoon to my lips. "You shall you shall; it is too very much Inglese; me tell you when have long Sunday time to think. My shild, take the good food from poor old Suan."
But I am too grateful for your amiability to let you run such a risk. Addio, Signor Inglese. There are many reasons why I can't let you draw my picture, but I am not ungrateful, see!" and she offered me her cheek, on which I instantly imprinted a chaste and fraternal salute. "Don't think that you've seen the last of me, carrissima," I called out, as she turned away.
Vere's coolness to him, even avoidance of him, had struck hammer-like blows upon his amour propre. He saw her now yes, he saw her coming down the stairs behind Peppina. Had they been together? Did they talk together, the cold, the prudish Signorina Inglese so he called Vere now in his anger and the former decoy of Maria Fortunata?
He had a wonderful gift for languages; and it pleased him to sit up half the night, drinking the rough wine of the country, smoking innumerable cigarettes, and laughing heartily at the stories of the fisher-folk, until the simple-minded Italians were filled with admiration and astonishment at this Inglese who was so much more like one of themselves than any of the Inglesi that they had ever met.
"Why, you speak what looks white this way, and black that way; gay one way, and dull another way: you tell him it is a good wall to keep out Tartars; you tell me, by that, it is good for nothing but to keep out Tartars; or, will keep out none but Tartars. I understand you, Seignior Inglese, I understand you," said he, joking; "but Seignior Chinese understand you his own way."
"What do you think of the /Inglese/?" said Madame de Montaigne to her husband, as they turned towards the house. "He has a noble bearing for one so young," said the Frenchman; "and seems to have seen the world, and both to have profited and to have suffered by it."
This was said just after the freest draught the stranger had taken, and with an unguarded warmth that he himself immediately regretted. "This is extraordinary, in an Inglese! Ah I see how it is you are in the opposizione, and find it necessary to say this. It is most extraordinary, good Vito Viti, that these Inglese are divided into two political castes, that contradict each other in everything.
To Cecil and Lucy it promised something quite different personal love. Hence Cecil's irritation and Lucy's belief that his irritation was just. "How tiresome!" she said. "Couldn't you have escaped to tennis?" "I don't play tennis at least, not in public. The neighbourhood is deprived of the romance of me being athletic. Such romance as I have is that of the Inglese Italianato."
But the Signore Inglese must be very careful very careful. He must never go out in the daytime. You can buy him English papers and books of Luccoli, in the Via Bosco. They will serve to while away the time." "I shall, no doubt, pass the time very pleasantly," laughed Hugh, speaking in French.
