Patient! She drew from her bosom, attached to a piece of blue ribbon, the half of an English shilling, kissed it, and blew a soft farewell to me: She had not been long gone when the Princess Ottilia stood in her place.
Distant hills, and folds of receding clouds and skies beyond them, were visible from my window, and beyond the skies I felt her soul. 'Ottilia, you were going to Italy? 'Yes: or whither they please, for as long as they please. I wished once to go, I have told you why. My friends left me to fall at the mercy of this one.
Otherwise, he would be sure to be here. The margravine beckons me. 'Don't go! we cried simultaneously. The Princess Ottilia supplied her place. 'I have sent to our stables for two little pretty Hungarian horses for you two to ride, she said. 'No, I have not yet seen him. He is asked for, and de Markgrafin knows not at all. He bades in our lake; he has been seen since.

'Is not that her wish? said Temple; perhaps with a wish of his own. 'Oh, if you think a lady like the Princess Ottilia is led by her wishes, said Janet. We appointed the next morning at half-past eleven for my father's visit.
An immediate introduction to Ottilia would have won him to enjoy the idea of his grandson's marriage; but not having seen her, he could not realize her dignity, nor even the womanliness of a 'foreign woman.

I have had a lot of worry, too, for little Alice has got a new tooth. Bob's boots fit him very well and he is very proud of them. "You say in your letter that I ought to find a friend of my own sex. Well, I have found one, or, rather, she has found me. Her name is Ottilia Sandegren, and she was educated at the seminary.
The Baron is married to Marie Antoinette, a Countess of the house of Kartoffelstadt, branches of which have taken root all over Germany. He has no sons, and but one daughter, the Fraulein OTTILIA.
