sent down to then! a present, confining of twelve
-baskets filled with chit chat; and that the baskets
being emptied, the contents were scattered abqpt
the garden. It happened in the mean time that
Adam, being rather in a pensive mood, paid less
attention to this prefect than his fair partner did,
so that hegatfrered but only three baskets full,
