Knowing what sort of tyrant Alessandro was, and remembering 'hat Guicciardini had written (Ricordi, No. ccxlii.): 'La calcina con che si murano gli stati de' tiranni è il sangue de' cittadini: però doverebbe sforzarsi ognuno che nella citt
You would imagine that the curse of heaven had fallen on the country, but for the large placards on the house-fronts, which prove that missionary fathers have passed through the place. "Viva Gesù! Viva Maria! Viva il sangue di Gesù! Viva il cor di Maria! Bestemmiatori, tacetevi per l'amor di Maria!" These devotional sentences are like so many signboards of the public simplicity.
Of late years, the union of Italian blood and a French education has been found indispensable to create a danseuse "Sangue Napolitano in scuola Parigiana;" and Vesuvius is the Olympus of all our recent divinities. Formerly, a Spanish origin was the most successful.
Gaspare was exclaiming, with indignant gestures of protest to the elderly couple who were in charge of the aprons; "it is not worth two soldi! It is not fit to be thrown to the pigs, and you ask me " "Gaspare!" "Two lire Madonna! Sangue di San Pancrazio, they ask me two lire! Macchè!" He took up another apron. "Gaspare!" "One lira fifty?
He made at the wish of his lady a naked Christ, when He was taken down from the Cross, and His dead body would have fallen at the feet of His most holy Mother, if it were not supported by the arms of two angels; but she, seated under the Cross with a tearful and sorrowful face, raises to heaven both hands with her arms out-stretched, with this cry, which one reads inscribed on the stem of the cross: NON VI SI PENSA QUANTO SANGUE COSTA!
Then, seeing that he only stared, and made no shift to speak: "Maybe," quoth I, "you'll explain why you detain me. I am in haste." "Explain?" he thundered. "Sangue di Cristo! The burden of explaining lies with you. What make you here?" "Why," answered I, in tones of deep astonishment, "I am about the business of the Lord Cardinal of Valencia, our master." "Davvero?" he jeered.
She sits below the cross with a face full of tears and sorrow, lifting both her widespread arms to heaven, while on the stem of the tree above is written this legend, 'Non vi si pensa quanto sangue costa. The cross is of the same kind as that which was carried in procession by the White Friars at the time of the plague of 1348, and afterwards deposited in the Church of S. Croce at Florence.
A man puts on spectacles to suit his complexion: the Captain's was sanguine. "Similemente agli splendor mondani Ordinò general ministra e duca, Che permutasse a tempo li ben vani, Di gente in gente, e d'uno in altro sangue." Inf. vii. 77. Angioletto had cause to believe in that star of his, for it never wavered in the course it held. Borso's court found him much to its taste.
Therefore, if relief is thwarted, they either brood themselves into a green melancholy, or succumb to a sudden "colpo di sangue," like a young woman of my acquaintance who, considering herself beaten in a dispute with a tram-conductor about a penny, forthwith had a "colpo di sangue," and was dead in a few hours. A primeval assertion of the ego . . .
Poterommi trovare in tempo che questi fioriscano? Era bell 'omo...Accadde che uno suo frate fu ucciso, e non ne fu fatta vendetta di sua morte: non lo poteo aiutare; pensa lungo mano vendicare 'l sangue di suo frate; pensa lunga mano dirizzare la cittate di Roma male guidata." "Vita di Cola di Rienzi" Ed. 1828. Forli.
