If, while the air is thickened by this frosty drizzle, the calendar should happen to indicate that the blessed vernal season … text/html 2025-11-05T16:12:04+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://systemd-c20-dokuwiki:8080/en:translate:the_europeans:ch2?rev=1762359124&do=diff <!DOCTYPE markdown> The European: Chapter II CHAPTER II The next day was splendid, as Felix had prophesied; if the winter had suddenly leaped into spring, the spring had for the moment as quickly leaped into summer. This was an observation made by a young girl who came out of a large square house in the country, and strolled about in the spacious garden which separated it from a muddy road. The flowering shrubs and the neatly-disposed plants were basking in the abundant light and warmth; the … text/html 2025-11-05T16:12:04+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://systemd-c20-dokuwiki:8080/en:translate:the_europeans:ch3?rev=1762359124&do=diff <!DOCTYPE markdown> The European: Chapter III CHAPTER III That evening at dinner Felix Young gave his sister, the Baroness Münster, an account of his impressions. She saw that he had come back in the highest possible spirits; but this fact, to her own mind, was not a reason for rejoicing. She had but a limited confidence in her brother’s judgment; his capacity for taking rose-colored views was such as to vulgarize one of the prettiest of tints. Still, she supposed he could be trusted to give … text/html 2025-11-05T16:12:04+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://systemd-c20-dokuwiki:8080/en:translate:the_europeans:ch4?rev=1762359124&do=diff <!DOCTYPE markdown> The European: Chapter IV CHAPTER IV A few days after the Baroness Münster had presented herself to her American kinsfolk she came, with her brother, and took up her abode in that small white house adjacent to Mr. Wentworth’s own dwelling of which mention has already been made. It was on going with his daughters to return her visit that Mr. Wentworth placed this comfortable cottage at her service; the offer being the result of a domestic colloquy, diffused through the ensui… text/html 2025-11-05T16:12:04+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://systemd-c20-dokuwiki:8080/en:translate:the_europeans:ch5?rev=1762359124&do=diff <!DOCTYPE markdown> The European: Chapter V CHAPTER V Mr. Wentworth, with his cane and his gloves in his hand, went every afternoon to call upon his niece. A couple of hours later she came over to the great house to tea. She had let the proposal that she should regularly dine there fall to the ground; she was in the enjoyment of whatever satisfaction was to be derived from the spectacle of an old negress in a crimson turban shelling peas under the apple trees. Charlotte, who had provided the … text/html 2025-11-05T16:12:04+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://systemd-c20-dokuwiki:8080/en:translate:the_europeans:ch6?rev=1762359124&do=diff <!DOCTYPE markdown> The European: Chapter VI CHAPTER VI Going of an afternoon to call upon his niece, Mr. Wentworth more than once found Robert Acton sitting in her little drawing-room. This was in no degree, to Mr. Wentworth, a perturbing fact, for he had no sense of competing with his young kinsman for Eugenia’s good graces. Madame Münster’s uncle had the highest opinion of Robert Acton, who, indeed, in the family at large, was the object of a great deal of undemonstrative appreciation.

I am afraid it must be confessed that he was a decidedly flattering painter, and that he imparted to his models a romantic grace which seemed easily and cheaply acquired by the payment of a hundred dollars to a young man who made “… text/html 2025-11-05T16:12:04+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://systemd-c20-dokuwiki:8080/en:translate:the_europeans:ch8?rev=1762359124&do=diff <!DOCTYPE markdown> The European: Chapter VIII CHAPTER VIII Charlotte and Mr. Brand had not returned when they reached the house; but the Baroness had come to tea, and Robert Acton also, who now regularly asked for a place at this generous repast or made his appearance later in the evening.

It was hard to say exactly what, except her telling him that she had taken her resolution with regard to the Prince Adolf; for Madame Münster’s visit had made no difference in their relations. He came to see her very often; but he had come to see her very often before. It was agreeable to him t… text/html 2025-11-05T16:12:04+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) http://systemd-c20-dokuwiki:8080/en:translate:the_europeans:ch10?rev=1762359124&do=diff <!DOCTYPE markdown> The European: Chapter X CHAPTER X The first sunday that followed Robert Acton’s return from Newport witnessed a change in the brilliant weather that had long prevailed. The rain began to fall and the day was cold and dreary. Mr. Wentworth and his daughters put on overshoes and went to church, and Felix Young, without overshoes, went also, holding an umbrella over Gertrude. It is to be feared that, in the whole observance, this was the privilege he most highly valued.

It was not that Mrs. Acton had failed to appreciate Madame Münster’s charms; on the contrary, her perception of the graces of manner and conversation of her brilliant visitor had been only too acute.

It was in the morning; Mr. Wentworth was in his office; and, on going in, Felix found that Charlotte was at that moment in conference with her father. She had, in fact, been constantly near him since her interview with Felix; she had made up her mind that it was her duty to repeat very literally her cousin’s passionate pl…
