The police were much diverted, I assure you, and so was I. I was in the hotel; I gave them the key to all the ladies." "You might have done better than waste your fine energies in making ladies names public town-talk," said Orsetti, frowning. "Well, that's a matter of opinion," replied Orazio, with a certain calm insolence peculiar to him. "I have no ladylove in Lucca."
'Wine in a ruby! he exclaims, gazing into his mistress's eyes: I'll solemnize their beauty in a draught Pressed from the summer of an hundred vines. Meanwhile Marcello pushes himself forward, and attempts to salute his brother. Orazio. Insolent beggar! Marcello. Prince! But we must shake hands. Look you, the round earth's like a sleeping serpent, Who drops her dusky tail upon her crown Just here.
In the other is Duke Orazio taking as his wife the daughter of King Henry of France, with this inscription: HENRICUS II, VALESIUS, GALLORUM REX, HORATIO FARNESIO CASTRI DUCI DIANAM FILIAM IN MATRIMONIUM COLLOCAT, ANNO SALUTIS 1552.
"Why did you make her so angry? She will always hate you now. I did not know you were civetta." Olive looked startled. "Angry? What do you mean?" "Why did you speak so much to Orazio? Gemma thought you wanted to take her husband from her and she will not forgive." "Why, I could see it made her ill to look at him and that she shrank from his touch, and I did as I would be done by.
Will you give the signorina her shoe?" He handed it to Orazio, who took it awkwardly. "The incident is closed," Olive said as she came back to her cooling tea. "I hope there is a heaven for horses and a hell for men. Oh, how I hate cruelty! Carmela, if that is Orazio I must say I sympathise with Gemma. How could any woman love a mean, narrow-shouldered, whitey-brown paper thing like that?"
"Compromising very," murmured Franchi, feebly, leaning back out of the range of Orsetti's arm. "The Red count was a communist, we all know," observed Malatesta. "Mon cher! he was a poet also," responded Orazio. Orazio's languor never interfered with his love of scandal. "When any lady struck his fancy, Marescotti made a sonnet a damaging practice. These sonnets are a diary of his life.
While at Ferrara the Pope, Leo X., asked Titian to go to Rome; but he longed for his home he wished for his yearly visit to Cadore, and he declined the honorable invitation, and returned to Venice. In 1530 Titian's wife died, leaving him with two sons, Pomponio and Orazio, and his daughter, Lavinia. In this same sad year the Emperor Charles V. and Pope Clement VII. met at Bologna.
Elizabeth's time, like our own, was distinguished by new fashionable colors, among which are mentioned a queer greenish-yellow, a pease-porridge-tawny, a popinjay of blue, a lusty gallant, and the "devil in the hedge." These may be favorites still, for aught I know. Mr. Furnivall quotes a description of a costume of the period, from the manuscript of Orazio Busino's "Anglipotrida."
I went over to the mantlepiece, and finding that a little chainless bronze censer, set, upon the outside, with pieces of painted china by Orazio Fontana, which I had filled with antique amulets, had fallen upon its side and poured out its contents, I began to gather the amulets into the bowl, partly to collect my thoughts and partly with that habitual reverence which seemed to me the due of things so long connected with secret hopes and fears.
Every device was resorted to that could lend novelty to the scenes; in Carlo Noci's Cintia the heroine returns home disguised as a boy to find her lover courting another nymph; in Francesco Contarini's Finta Fiammetta , on the other hand, the plot turns on the courtship of Delfide by her lover Celindo in girl's attire; while in Orazio Serono's Fida Armilla we have the annual human sacrifice to a monstrous serpent all of which later became familiar themes in pastoral drama and romance.
