Your voice always is," she said loyally. "But somehow it doesn't ring. The glad sound has gone out of it. That's it!" Patricia had been knowing it herself ever since she had realized that Tancredi was only keeping her for friendship's sake, and it had been almost too much to bear alone. Without thinking, she blurted it out. "I can't really sing, after all, Ju," she told her passionately.
In the language of one writer, whose enthusiasm seems not to have been excessive: "It was a triumph of histrionic art, and afforded every opportunity for the display of all the resources of her genius the varied powers which had been called forth and combined in Medea, the passionate tenderness of Romeo, the spirit and animation of Tancredi, the majesty of Semi-ramide, the mournful beauty of Nina, the dignity and sweetness of Desdemona.
He commanded a Neapolitan warship called the Tancredi, and had fought in Admiral Hotham's action on the 14th March, 1795, and gained distinction, accompanying the Royal Family to Palermo. He was given permission by the King to return for the purpose of protecting his large property.
She sang it to the end and then sat mutely on the bench, with her anxieties returning slowly as the silence grew. When she could bear it no longer she turned a pale face to where Tancredi sat staring into space. "S shall I try it again?" she faltered uncertainly. Tancredi shook her head silently.
Patricia felt a surge of agonizing regret for all the bright hopes that she had lost forever, but she tried to laugh down into Judith's eager face. "That sounds exactly like Tancredi," she declared. "How strange you should dream it so truly." "It sounds true, doesn't it?" persisted Judith. "Should you be very cross with me if it weren't all a dream, Miss Pat?"

In this work, Rossini, by the new riches which he draws from his prodigious imagination, is no longer the author of 'Otello, 'Tancredi, 'Zoraide, and all his preceding works; he is another composer, new, agreeable, and fertile, as much as at first, but with more command of himself, more pure, more masterly, and, above all, more faithful to the interpretation of the words.
You're with Tancredi, too, aren't you?" Patricia nodded. "I suppose she has a name, though I haven't heard it," the girl said to Constance, who was chatting with someone at an opposite table. Constance did not hear her, but Patricia readily supplied the deficiency. "I'm Patricia Kendall," she said, feeling rather apologetic for herself, though she did not know quite why.
Petersburg, while I was listening to the music of 'Tancredi. Two gentlemen were talking behind me, and one was telling the other his recollection of that brilliant scene I have just recounted.
