There would be no satisfaction in being helped over an easy place; she should like him to help her where it would need some strength and skill to do so. She drew her skirt round her and walked up unaided, and followed by Sassi, leaning on his stick with one hand and on Masin with the other. The descent into the first chamber was less easy.
The panorama, tho' it included little which we had not seen already, was fine all around, and served to impress the mainland marks upon our memory. The Ampezzo Thal opened away to north and south, and the twin passes of the Tre Croci and Tre Sassi intersected it to east and west.
When I see a dog kicked, I always kick the man, if I can, and I do not remember to have regretted any momentary unpleasantness that has followed in such cases. I have only seen Donna Sabina once, but I mean to help her if possible. Now tell me this. Has she any legal claim in the value of the palace or not?" "I am afraid not," Sassi answered.
"I am sorry for him," said I, "though he is a rascally fellow." "I am not at all sorry for him myself," said Sassi, "he's a knave." "I daresay that everybody will be putting down his wooden baptism to my account." "No," said the abbe, "people say that M. Casanova did the deed for good reasons of his own."
The chances are that you will be at home again before the Baroness comes in, and she will never know that you have been out. Does that look very hard?" "No, it looks easy." "What time shall Sassi call for you to-morrow?" asked Malipieri, who wished to settle the matter at once. "At five o'clock," answered Sabina, after a moment's thought. "At five to-morrow, then.
The banker shewed me the bill of exchange, and said that the person who had given it me had deceived me, as it was not in the writing of the Englishman whose name it bore, and that even if it were, the Englishman not having any money with Sassi could not draw a bill of exchange.
"You had a right to be angry," said M. Sassi, "but you must not take any notice of what the poor fellow says in his blind rage." He shook me by the hand and went out. Next day the chief of police, called the auditor at Florence, sent me a note begging me to call on him. There was no room for hesitation, for as a stranger I felt that I might look on this invitation as an intimation.
I will make him consult me, and it will be the same and ten times more conventional and proper." He smiled. "Will you promise that?" he asked. "Yes. I promise. But I wish you would tell me more." "I wish I could. But I hardly know you!" He smiled again, as he repeated her own words. "Never mind that! Tell me!" "No. I cannot. If there is trouble I will tell you everything through Sassi, of course."
"I foresee," he said, "that the auditor will not let go his hold, and if M. Sassi does not succeed with him I advise you to speak to Marshal Botta." "I don't think that will be necessary; the auditor can't force me to pay." "He can do worse." "What can he do?". "He can make you leave Florence."
Situate on the left bank of the Boita, which here runs nearly due north and south, with the Tre Croci pass opening away behind the town to the east, and the Tre Sassi Pass widening before it to the west, Cortina lies in a comparatively open space between four great mountains, and is therefore less liable to danger from bergfalls than any other village not only in the Val d'Ampezo but in the whole adjacent district.
