True, she had vigorously reproved him later. She had, alas, occasion, during her first season, to reprove several demonstrative young men for their unconventionally athletic manner of declaring their suits.

It was this that made Nera so attractive. She was perfectly natural and unconventionally bold "like an English mees," it was said with looks of horror. The Boccarini were in reality so poor that it was no uncommon thing for them to remain at home because they could not afford to buy new dresses in which to display themselves.
