Emily--may you never know the torture of a passion like mine! What do I say?
O, that, for me, you might be sensible of such a passion!' Emily looked impatient to be gone.

'I entreat you, Count, to consult your own safety,' said she, 'and linger here no longer.

I tremble for the consequences of Signor Verezzi's passion, and of Montoni's resentment, should he learn that you are still here.' Morano's face was overspread with a momentary crimson, his eyes sparkled, but he seemed endeavouring to conquer his emotion, and replied in a calm voice, 'Since you are interested for my safety, I will regard it, and be gone.

But, before I go, let me again hear you say, that you wish me well,' said he, fixing on her an earnest and mournful look.
Emily repeated her assurances.

He took her hand, which she scarcely attempted to withdraw, and put it to his lips.
