Verdi did not like them, but since there was no time to lose, chose the least offensive and set to work. The Verdis were living in a small house near the Porta Ticinesa; the family consisted of the composer, his wife and two little sons. Almost as soon as work was begun on the comic opera, Verdi fell ill and was confined to his bed several days.
He's a short, squatty, low-browed party with gold rings in his ears and a smallpox-pitted face. He gazes doubtful at Eggleston durin' the talk, and at the finish grins back at us. Likely he thought Eggy'd been makin' a comic speech. "An ingenious prophecy," says Mr. Hubbard; "but unfortunately all Italians are not Verdis." "Few have the chance to be," says Eggy.
