"You'd better attempt," shouted at last the fictitious Capuzzi, "you only dare, Pasquale, you amorous old ape, to interfere with the happiness of these two young people, whom Heaven has destined for each other." At this moment there appeared at the back of the stage Antonio Scacciati and Marianna locked in each other's arms.
Signor Pasquale of course came out on to the balcony, and scolded down at the singers, ordering them to hold their peace; but the neighbours, whom the beautiful music had brought to their windows, cried out to him, asking him whether, as he and his friends were in the habit of howling and screaming like all the demons in hell, he wouldn't suffer such a thing as a little good music in the street?
"I am afraid Stenson must have misdelivered my message," said I. "Then you do not want me at all, and I must go away?" Oh, those eyes! I am growing so tired of them. I hesitated, and was lost. "Please let me stay and talk to Pasquale." "Mr. Pasquale," I corrected. She echoed my words with a cooing laugh, and taking my consent for granted, curled herself up in a corner of the sofa.
Beroviero had already called to Marietta that it was time to go home, though the mid-day bells had not yet rung out the hour, when Pasquale appeared in the garden and announced that Venier was waiting in his gondola and desired an immediate interview on a matter of importance.
A considerable time elapsed, when one day Antonio burst into Salvator's studio breathless and pale as death. "Salvator!" he cried, "Salvator, my friend, my protector! I am lost if you do not help me. Pasquale Capuzzi is here; he has procured a warrant for my arrest for the seduction of his niece." "But what can Signor Pasquale do against you now?" asked Salvator.
He felt a tremor in his hands and could not speak aloud, but as he held her he bent down and whispered something in her ear; and she smiled through the shower of her happy tears, though he could not see it, for her face was hidden. Just then Beroviero entered from the corridor, followed by Pasquale, and the two old men stood still together gazing at the young lovers.
Some of my people went there from Temecula; but it is a poor little village, Majella. Majella would not like to live in it. Neither do I believe it will long be any safer than San Pasquale. There was a kind, good old man who owned all that valley, Senor Ravallo; he found the village of Saboba there when he came to the country.
At last Pasquale left the room. Old Saracinesca gave a sigh of relief. "And now, Giovannino," he said familiarly, "what have you got to say for yourself?" "I?" asked his son, in some surprise. "You! What are you going to do?" "I will stay at home," said Giovanni, shortly. "That is not the question. You are wise to stay at home, because you ought to get yourself healed of that scratch.
Having intelligence and energy and the racial persistence which is as much a part of his breed as their hands and their feet are, he was looked upon in the department as a detective with a future ahead of him. As for him who had once been Pasquale Gallino, he now occupied a position of prominence amid congenial surroundings while following after equally congenial pursuits. There was a gang.
They plainly saw Marianna standing at the window, notwithstanding that Signor Pasquale besought her in the sweetest phrases and protestations not to expose herself to the noxious night air. Next evening the most remarkable company that ever was seen proceeded down the Via Ripetta towards the Porta del Popolo.
