In the bill, however, were the three, and voices were lowered, mandolins and guitars were stilled, the oyster man forgot his shriek, during the five awful minutes when Vance and the padrone had it out. After that Vance made another trattoria the richer by his daily quinto.
"You asked me, just now, what I wanted. I want, if you must know, what I can never have what the Venetian girl last night was getting." "And what was she getting? I don't understand you, upon my soul!" said Quinto, staring at her, and utterly puzzled. "What was she getting? Love! that was what she was getting!
I can't bear it." "But did you not say that you loved the Marchese Lamberto?" persisted Quinto, dropping his mocking tone, however. "I said that I liked him better than any of the men I have known; that I admired him as a fine and noble gentleman; that I would be a good and true wife to him, and should love him," she added, with a burst of bitterness, "better than he ever will, or can, love me."
Cargaron estas tres naues quando tornaron tanta cantidad de oro en aquella isla, que mõto el quinto q dan al rey vn millon y dozientos mil ducados. ¶Andan por alla Moros contratando con naues, y trocãdo cosas de su tierra por oro, y mantas, y especieria, y por clauos y otras cosas.
On the morning following the conversation related in the last chapter Bianca, hearing Quinto coming out of his bed-room into the sitting-room about nine o'clock, called out to him from her bed: "Oh, papa! I forgot to tell you last night that the Marchese and Signor Stadione are to be here at one o'clock to-day to hear me, and settle about the night of the 6th, you know." "All right, bambina mia!
At Arrecifes, the Glyptodon, sent to the College of Surgeons, was found; and I have seen two teeth of a Mastodon from this quarter. At S. Carlos, I heard of great bones. I have seen, I may add, in the possession of Mr. The furthest point westward in the Pampas, at which I have HEARD of fossil bones, was high up on the banks of R. Quinto.
Quinto Lalli, with startled ear, listened attentively; got round to where he could see the child's face; marked well, with knowing eye, the little brown feet and legs bare to the knee; and then determined to abandon the fare paid for the remainder of his diligence journey to Rome. The business for the sake of which he made that sacrifice was easily and quickly done.
"The Marchese Ludovico was in the left-hand stage-box with his uncle." "Of course he was; but I mean between the acts. I saw him from the wing by the side of that girl with her face the colour of mahogany, and her half-alive look. I hate the look of her, and I know she hates me!" Old Quinto looked at his pupil curiously for a minute before he replied to her.
Unstable, improvident, unthrifty, fond of pleasure, and not fond of work, nothing had succeeded with him. Nevertheless, a cleverer man in his own line, or a shrewder judge of the article he dealt in, than Quinto Lalli did not exist in all Italy. And his judgment did not fail him when he fell in with little Bianca degli Innocenti.
You might as well go and flaner, Quinto; for I must dress ready for the Marchese, in case he comes this morning." "He'll come sure enough," said Quinto; as he prepared to leave the room. "It's quite time, then, that I made myself ready to receive him," returned Bianca, getting up from the sofa.
