Marchdale: It will give me great pleasure if you can dine with us on Thursday evening next, at eight o'clock, to meet my uncle, Cardinal Udeschini, who is staying here for a few days. "I have been re-reading 'A Man of Words. I want you to tell me a great deal more about your friend, the author. Yours sincerely, BEATRICE DI SANTANGIOLO."
Marietta's eyes blinked, in stupefaction before such stupidity. "But I have just told you," she cried "She is the Duchessa di Santangiolo." "Who is the Duchessa di Santangiolo?" he asked. Marietta, blinking harder, shrugged her shoulders.
"At all events, the Duchessa di Santangiolo is a very beautiful woman." "The Signorino has seen her?" Marietta asked. "I have grounds for believing so. An apparition a phantom of delight appeared on the opposite bank of the tumultuous Aco, and announced herself as my landlady. Of course, she may have been an impostor but she made no attempt to get the rent.
"Oh-h-h!" shuddered Beatrice and Emilia, in a breath; and they resumed their walk. Francois was dining with an appearance of great fervour. Peter sat on his rustic bench, by the riverside, and watched him, smoking a cigarette the while. The Duchessa di Santangiolo stood screened by a tree in the park of Ventirose, and watched them both.
But though Peter remained in it all day long though he haunted the riverside, and cast a million desirous glances, between the trees, and up the lawns, towards Castel Ventirose he enjoyed no briefest vision of the Duchessa di Santangiolo. Nor the next day; nor the next. "Why does n't that old dowager ever come down and look after her river?" he asked Marietta.
O'Donovan Florence; but the printed visitors' list there told him that she had left nearly a fortnight since. On his return to the villa, he was greeted by Marietta with the proud tidings that her Excellency the Duchessa di Santangiolo had been to see her. "Oh ? Really?" he questioned lightly. "Ang," said Marietta. "She came with the most Eminent Prince Cardinal. They came in the carriage.
