By what error of destiny had this heart-rending phenomenon of discord been caused? Either explanation was very painful to her.

The King and most of the ministers quantities of officials, persons in high social positions and unblemished reputation seem to have been carried away by the fever; Comoundouros himself is accused of participation; and are clearly guilty, and I think the ministry must resign. So far we have no accusation against Tricoupi or any of his friends.
Did we want proof to sustain what we have said we could not do better than refer to Mr. Forsheu, that very excellent gentleman.

She had now been three years a widow, and was consequently at the age of twenty-seven. Despite the tenderness of her poetry and her character, her reputation was unblemished.
