The picture of the two fair ladies was still in my brain, and I was thinking of enquiring of Greppi when I chanced to see Triulzi in the pit of the opera-house. He saw me at the same moment, and came up to me, saying gaily that he was sure I had had a bad dinner, and that I had much better dine with him every day. "You make me blush, marquis, for not having called on you yet."
"Then I will get you an invitation from the fair bride herself on the condition that the countess comes as well. I must warn you that the company will consist of honest people of the lower classes, and I cannot have them humiliated in any way." "I will persuade the countess," said Triulzi. "To make your task an easier one, I may as well tell you that the wedding is that of the fair Zenobia."
Further I was no longer at that brilliant age which fears nothing, and I was afraid that my appearance would hardly overcome them. It is true that Barbaro had made me hope that presents would be of some use, but after what the Marquis Triulzi had said, I feared that Barbaro had only spoken on supposition. When the company was sufficiently numerous, the card-tables were brought in.
"If you behave well to me, you will always find me so. "And will you love me?" "That depends on you. So you are going to sacrifice Canano to me this evening." "Yes, and with the greatest pleasure. He has won a lot from me already, and I foresee that he will win the fifteen thousand francs I have in my pocket to-morrow. This is the money the Marquis Triulzi gave me for the dress."

Countess A B had sent me a note asking me to sup with her, her husband, and the Marquis Triulzi, and other friends. This engagement prevented my paying a visit to Canano, who had won a thousand sequins of me since my great victory as Pierrot. I knew that he boasted that he was sure of me, but in my own mind I had determined to gain the mastery. At supper the countess waged war on me.
I added, "I know the Prince Triulzi, at Venice; I suppose he is of your family?" "He says he is, and it may be so; but I am certainly not a member of his family." This let me know that I should do well to say no more about the prince. "You must stay to dinner, marquis," said Count A B ; "and as you only like dishes prepared by your own cook you had better send for them."
I had made up my mind to shew my gratitude to the worthy man for his hospitality, so on the fourth day of Lent I took leave of Therese, Greppi, and the affectionate marchioness, for two weeks, and we set out on our way. To my great delight the countess did not care to come. She much preferred staying in Milan with Triulzi, who did not let her lack for anything. We got to St.

No one replied; but after some thought the Marquis Triulzi said that to make the chances perfectly equal the players would have to be equal, which was almost out of the question. "All that is too sublime for me," said Canano; "I don't understand it." But, after all, there was not much to understand.
