'By that sign, I quite said to myself, 'he'll conquer' with his good fortune, of course, of having the other necessary signs too. It really," said Mrs. Assingham, "was, practically, the fine side of the wedge. Which struck me as also," she wound up, "a lovely note for the candour of the Ververs." The Colonel took in the tale, but his comment was prosaic. "He knew, Amerigo, what he was about.
Or perhaps even by dashing it with violence say upon a marble floor." "Oh, marble floors!" But she might have been thinking for they were a connection, marble floors; a connection with many things: with her old Rome, and with his; with the palaces of his past, and, a little, of hers; with the possibilities of his future, with the sumptuosities of his marriage, with the wealth of the Ververs.
