"I have often suspected it, dear Iolas, without being able to say exactly what I want." After spending an hour in glancing over Sardini's works, I begged her to spew me her own. "No," said she, "they are too bad." "I expect so; but the good will outweigh the bad." "I don't think so." "Oh, yes! you needn't be afraid.
I told her that she was perfectly right, and that I was wrong, and a feeling of literary vanity prevented her opposing my pressing with my lips a rosy bud, which stood out in relief against the alabaster sphere. "You apply your lips in vain, my dear Iolas, the land is barren. But what are you swallowing?" "The quintessence of a kiss."
"I have foreseen all your objections, and that was the reason I made a mystery of it, but it has been arranged. You don't like it? Speak and tell me your pleasure." "Of course we like it, dear Iolas. The party will be charming, and perhaps, if we knew all, the very conditions are all for the best." "It may be so, but I may not tell you any more now." "And we will not press you."

I might be overwhelmed by your too rapid descent on me. Are you persuaded?" "Persuaded is not the word, fair Hebe. I am ravished in an ecstacy of admiration. Never was paradox so finely maintained. I might cavil and contest it, but I prefer to keep silence to admire and adore." "Thank you, dear Iolas, but I want no favour. Tell me how you could disprove my argument?"
'Tis the kiss that Amaryllis gave to Mistillo." "It comes to the same thing. The kiss has produced its effects, and Iolas is young again." "Dear Eleanore, you have gone too far, for we love each other, and I was dreaming of him." "No, no," said her sister, "Iolas is dressed. Look!"
I will take care not to stumble in the same way; and no Ganymede shall take my place for a like cause." "You are very wise. Jupiter was wrong, and henceforth I will be Hercules. Will that please you, fair Hebe?" "No; because he did not marry her till after her death." "True, again. I will be Iolas then, for . . ." "Be quiet. Iolas was old." "True; but so was I yesterday.
Zenobia took upon herself to say that the first was for Clementine. "How do you know?" "It is the longer, and you are taller than your sister." "That is true. It is really mine, then?" said she, turning to me. "If I may hope that you will deign to accept it." "Surely, dear Iolas, and I will put it on directly."
No one had any suspicion of poison at the time; but it is said that six years after there appeared clear proof that he was poisoned, and that Olympias put many men to death, and caused the ashes of Iolas, who had died in the mean time, to be cast to the winds, as though he had administered the poison to Alexander.
I will forgive the bad grammar, bad style, absurd images, faulty method, and even the verses that won't scan." "That's too much, Iolas; Hebe doesn't need so vast a pardon as all that. Here, sir, these are my scribblings; sift the faults and the defaults. Read what you will."
