to speak. for her soul shone through her
body like lamp of alabaster, and the
rays from her breast pierced mine.
The lark sang, pale light played
among the curtains.
As soon as Angela saw it, she rose
precipitately, made a sign OF farewell,
and after few steps, she screamed and
fell.
Seized with terror, I sprang forward
My blood freezes at the thought; found
nothing but the coffee-pot broken into
thousand fragments.
At the sight of this, persuaded that l
had been the sport OF some diabolic de-
fusion, was so overpowered with fright
that I tainted.
When / became conscious again l was
in my bed; Arrigo Cohic and Pedrino

a green figure. "There are the strass

about Theodore must have found it in
the corner, and have put it on for fun.
But what made you faint p added Borg
nioli.
"That is all very well for young girls
with white shoulders You unlacc her
corsets, take off her necklace, and it is
good opportunity for them to shipper
and give themselves airs.
1t is only weakness" ! replied
dryly; / am subject to these fits.

ridiculous costume.
At breakfast my three companions ate
heartily hardly tasted anything. The
memory of what had passed distracted
me.
After breakfast, as it was raining
steadily, there was no possibility OF 60
