From a Ricordo dated October 19, 1524, we learn in fact that he then drew his full pay for eight months. Since Michelangelo was now engaged upon the Medicean tombs at S. Lorenzo, it will be well to give some account of the several plans he made before deciding on the final scheme, which he partially executed.

"Well, why not as a small ricordo." "But a ricordo of what?" "Why, of 'this' as you yourself say. Of this little hunt." "Oh, I say it but hasn't my whole point been that I don't ask you to. Therefore," she demanded but smiling at him now "where's the logic?" "Oh, the logic !" he laughed. "But logic's everything. That, at least, is how I feel it.

Wearily she leaned against the window bars, twining her hot fingers around them, pressing her forehead to the cold barrier; and everywhere "Ricordo" stabbed her eyes like glowing steel. The door opened, some words were uttered in an undertone, then the bolt clicked in its socket, and Mr. Dunbar approached the window. Mechanically Beryl glanced over her shoulder, and a shiver crept across her.

From a letter addressed to Figiovanni on the 15th of October, we learn that he was then impatient to leave Florence for Rome. But a Ricordo, bearing date October 29, 1533, renders it almost certain that he had not then started. Angelini's letters, which had been so frequent, stop suddenly in that month. This renders it almost certain that Michelangelo must have soon returned to Rome.

"Well, why not as a small ricordo." "But a ricordo of what?" "Why, of 'this' as you yourself say. Of this little hunt." "Oh, I say it but hasn't my whole point been that I don't ask you to. Therefore," she demanded but smiling at him now "where's the logic?" "Oh, the logic !" he laughed. "But logic's everything. That, at least, is how I feel it.

But whatever weight we may attach to this single date, there is no corroborative proof that he travelled twice to Venice, and everything in the Ricordo indicates that it refers to the period of his flight from Florence. The sum paid to Corsini comes first, because it must have been disbursed when that man broke the journey at Ferrara.

My memory is defective, my learned friend. Non mi ricordo. I know nothing about it." Randal changed his tone. "We have amused ourselves long enough," he said. "I have serious reasons, Sarrazin, for wishing to know what passed between Miss Westerfield and you and I trust my old friend to relieve my anxiety." The lawyer was accustomed to say of himself that he never did things by halves.

She did call again two or three times, never announcing her name; then she did not reappear. She might be Madame Duval I can't say. "'But did you never hear his Excellency speak of the real Duval after that time? "'No non mi ricordo I don't remember. "'Nor of some living Madame Marigny, though the real one was dead?

She struck her palms together, and I never heard such an agonizing cry, 'There is no help! I must believe it oh Ricordo! Ricordo Ricordo'. She fell back and shivered as if she had an ague. I tried to soothe her, and told her she had a bad dream.

Daymond held her broad, lace-trimmed parasol over the small black head, while May gave her a glimpse of the world through each end of her opera-glass. The child was a self-contained little person, and betrayed no special elation over these blandishments. When the time for parting came, Kenwick, with much ceremony, presented her with a bright piece of nickel, as a ricordo of the visit.
