That might be rather an awkward proceeding, but I was not to be stopped by any nice observances, now that I had set my mind upon the matter. Unluckily, however, I could by no means recollect the exact address of Mr. Montenero.
Montenero; and, I fear, prevented him from hearing the answers to various inquiries, upon which he, with better regulated judgment, was intent. An orator is the worst person to tell a plain fact; the very worst guide, as Mowbray observed, that a foreigner can have. Still Mr.
I am incapable of the base treachery of taking advantage of any confidence reposed in me." "My good sir," said Mr. Montenero, when at last I was forced to pause for breath, "why this vehemence of defence? I do not accuse I do not suspect you of any breach of confidence. Pray compose yourself."
The sun rose from behind the Apennines and masts and towers became visible through the golden haze, as we approached the shore. On a flat space between the sea and the hills, not far from the foot of Montenero, stands Leghorn.
Coates had warned me that Miss Montenero was touchy on the Jewish chapter, and his lordship was aware it was as the champion of the Jews that I had first been favourably represented by Jacob, and favourably received by Mr. Montenero. Soon Lord Mowbray appeared to be deeply interested and deeply read in very thing that had been written in their favour.

One returns always, I think, with regret from Montenero to Livorno; yet, after all, not with more sadness than that which always accompanies us in returning from the country to any city, howsoever fair and lovely.
Coates, whom I accidentally met at a fruit-shop, that "Miss Montenero was taken suddenly ill of a scarlet fever down in the country at General B 's, where," as Mrs. Coates added, "they could get no advice for her at all, but a country apothecary, which was worse than nobody." Mrs.
Montenero back with me," said my mother, "for I am going to pay a visit I should have paid long ago to Miss Montenero." I kissed my mother's hand I don't know how many times, till my father told me I was a fool.
