MARQUESA. Así, así ... tengo coche ... dos mil reales al mes de alfileres ... y en cuanto a mi marido ... es como todos los maridos, ni feo, ni bonito, ni ... tu suerte, Matilde, es la que no me parece muy envidiable. DOÑA MATILDE. Al contrario ... ayer me casé con el hombre que adoraba. MARQUESA. ¡Calla! ¿Serías acaso la novia que estuvo a pique de acostarse anoche a oscuras?

DOÑA MATILDE. Entonces también temblaría usted, porque es bien seguro que tampoco habrá usted tomado nada. DON EDUARDO. , por cierto; he tomado, según mi costumbre, una jícara de chocolate, con sus correspondientes bollos y pan de Mallorca. DOÑA MATILDE. ¡Chocolate y pan de Mallorca en un día como éste! DON EDUARDO. ¿Es requisito acaso el pedir la novia en ayunas?

One of the most charming of Yradier's Andalusian songs, addressed by a contrabandista to his novia, runs thus: Pero tengo unas patillas. Que patillas puñála! Es lo mejor que se ha jecho En de Jesu Cristo acá! "But I have such a stunning pair of whiskers! The best that have ever been seen since those of Jesus Christ!" And no one is offended; in fact, no irreverence is probably meant.

He wore elaborately decorated gaiters, the usual short, close-fitting jacket, and a broad-brimmed hat; in his belt were a knife and a revolver, and slung across his back a long gun. He would have made an admirable brigand of comic-opera; but was in point of fact a farmer riding, as he told me, to see his novia, or lady-love, at a neighbouring farm.

The Spaniard who has a novia, a guitar, a cigarillo, and the knowledge that he has enough to pay for a seat at the bull-fight, possesses all that he can possibly need. He will eat a plateful of gazpacho or puchero, a sardine, half a roll of bread, and drink clear water as often as wine. Food is always of secondary importance: he ranks it after his novia, after his cigarillo, after the bulls.

Impulsively she sprang for the prim white mirror that capped her prim white bureau and stood staring up into her own entrancing, bright-colored Novia Scotian reflection with tense and unwonted interest. Except for the unmistakable smirk which fatigue had clawed into her plastic young mouth-lines there was certainly nothing special the matter with what she saw.

They also say that he went into Portugal, where he raised to life the daughter of his host at Guimaraens, a town of the diocese of Braganza, which caused him to be spoken of as a saint throughout the whole country; and that he went through nearly the whole of the Kingdom of Arragon and the adjacent provinces; and, finally, they relate the following most extraordinary circumstance: Francis being one evening on the banks of the River Orbego, with his companions, where there was no food, a young man of the Town of Novia overtook them, and carried them over on some horses he had with him, and received them hospitably.

He signed as good as any of us and he's shown himself as good " "Better!" broke in a Novia Scotia man. "Better than some of us! When we struck the sealing-grounds he turned out to be next to the best boat-steerer aboard. Only French Louis, who'd been at it for years, could beat him. I'm only a boat-puller, and you're only a boat-puller, too, Emil Johansen, for all your twenty-two years at sea.
