I did not make her wait.

I found her in 'vestito di conidenza', in an undress more than wanton, unknown to northern countries, and which I will not amuse myself in describing, although I recollect it perfectly well.
I shall only remark that her ruffles and collar were edged with silk network ornamented with rose--colored pompons.

This, in my eyes, much enlivened a beautiful complexion.

I afterwards found it to be the mode at Venice, and the effect is so charming that I am surprised it has never been introduced in France.

I had no idea of the transports which awaited me.
