Though only certain small details of this narrative had been unknown to Vinicius, he listened with pleasure, for his enormous pride of family was pleased that an eye-witness had confirmed Lygia's royal descent.
And while speaking of this, Lygia blushed like a maiden who loves and trusts.

There was not the slightest movement in the air; the cypresses stood as motionless as if they too were holding breath in their breasts. All at once the silence was broken by an unexpected thunder, deep, and as if coming from under the earth. A shiver ran through Lygia's body.
