Gladstone, the Duke of Argyll, Pasteur, Canon Farrar, Bartholdi, Salvini, and a score of others represented English and European opinion.
And we practice with the knives. I am then already famous. Everybody in Italy knows Salvini, the great knife thrower. They say, 'Never has there been a young man of such genius with the knives. But I am only begin. "Our debut is a success. What do I say, 'Success! Bah! It is like wildfire. They stand up and cheer. 'Salvini, Salvini! they cry.
That guide had spoken of this man, and Oswald thinks here is a possible chance to learn present whereabouts of Marco Salvini. He is shocked to hear that two days before this Italian had been nearly crushed to death by a car collision, and is now at St. Vincent's. Oswald loses no time in delay. Going promptly to the hospital, he is admitted to proper ward.
"It is difficult to make a woman stop eating, signor." "Difficult! Aha, but she must stop, or what become of me, the great Salvini, who have 200 medals? Look! I will show you from my book what they say of me. They say, 'Salvini is the greatest in his line. They say, 'Here is genius; here is a man whose skill transcends the imagination. So what I do if madam keep on growing fatter?
Salvini plucked Alessandro out of the seat, flung himself into it, resumed the scene, and as I lifted the cross before his convulsed features, his breath halted, slowly he lifted his face, when, divining his meaning, I pressed the cross gently upon his trembling lips, and with a sob his head fell weakly upon my breast. It was beautifully done; even the actors were moved.
With a player so variable as Salvini, who trusts to the feelings of the moment for so much detail, and who, night after night, does the same thing differently but always well, it can never be safe to pass judgment after a single hearing. And this is more particularly true of last week's Macbeth; for the whole third act was marred by a grievously humorous misadventure.
"You'd make a good actor, a holy good actor. You got a way with you. Coquelin, Salvini, Bernhardt! Voila, you're just as good! Bagosh, I'd like to see you on the stage." "So would I," said Larue. "I think you could play a house full in no time and make much cash I think you could. Don't you think so, Luzanne?" Luzanne laughed.
I was to wear the black cross so commonly seen on the breast of the Roman peasant women, and once at an outbreak of Conrad's, I thought if I raised that cross without speaking, and he drooped before it, it would be effective and quite appropriate, as he was supposed to be superstitiously devout. I mentioned it to young Salvini, who cried eagerly, "Did you tell my father did he see it?"
'Giacometti's ELISABETTA, I find him writing, 'fetched the house vastly. Poor Queen Elizabeth! And yet it was a little good. And again, after a night of Salvini: 'I do not suppose any one with feelings could sit out OTHELLO, if Iago and Desdemona were acted. Salvini was, in his view, the greatest actor he had seen.
In short, Salvini was a delight to eye and ear, and satisfied both imagination and judgment in that first act.
