"And great charm, I think." "Ah well of course I daresay. We Romans cannot help thinking that for an artist he is a little too much occupied in being a gentleman and for a gentleman he is quite too much an artist." The remark was not original with Donna Tullia, but had been reported to her as Spicca's, and Spicca had really said something similar about somebody else.
He hardly believed Donna Tullia would appear at all; and if she did, he expected some extraordinary outburst, some pitiable exhibition of insanity.
"That will be difficult," answered Donna Tullia, although she knew very well that she would receive Giovanni kindly enough when she had once had an opportunity of speaking her mind to him. "Do not be hard-hearted," urged the Prince. "I am sure he is very penitent." "Then let him say so." "That is exactly what I ask." "Is it? Oh, very well.
Donna Tullia dreamed many things that night, and she afterwards accomplished most of them, to the surprise of everybody, and, if the truth were told, to her own considerable astonishment. "Giovanni, you are the victim of some outrageous plot," said old Saracinesca, entering his son's room on the following morning. "I have thought it all out in the night, and I am convinced of it."
Saracinesca looked up and started. The Duchessa d'Astrardente raised her black eyebrows in surprise. "Our dance!" exclaimed Giovanni, in considerable agitation. "It is the one after this " "On the contrary," said Donna Tullia, in tones trembling with rage, "it is already over. It is the most unparalleled insolence!" Giovanni was profoundly disgusted at himself and Donna Tullia.
"So you were not going to speak to me to-day?" she said rather roughly, after her manner. Giovanni turned sharply and faced her, bowing low. Donna Tullia laughed. "Is there anything so amazingly ridiculous in my appearance?" he asked. "Altro! when you make that tremendous salute " "It was intended to convey an apology as well as a greeting," answered Don Giovanni, politely.
"Yes," answered her companion, with a significant smile, "I presume you do." Donna Tullia laughed harshly as she got into her carriage. "You are detestable, Valdarno you always misunderstand me. Are you going to the ball tonight?" "Of course. May I have the pleasure of the cotillon?" "If you are very good if you will go and ask the news of Del Ferice." "I sent this morning.
I have already said that Ugo Del Ferice had returned to Rome soon after the change, had established himself with his wife, Donna Tullia, and was at the time I am speaking about, deeply engaged in the speculations of the day. He had once been, tolerably popular in society, having been looked upon as a harmless creature, useful in his way and very obliging.
And as they differed the one from the other, so also did their wives, the daughters of King Servius; and it so fell out that she that had the fiercer temper of the two, a certain Tullia, was married to Aruns, and she that was gentle to Lucius.
This is how the matter lies. Listen, Tullia mia. The old Leone Saracinesca who last bore the title of Marquis " "The one mentioned here?" asked Donna Tullia, breathlessly. "Yes the one who took service under Murat, under Napoleon. Well, it is perfectly well known that he laid claim to the Roman title, and with perfect justice.
