I never knew the old lady, though I dare say I should love her if I did know her.

Madame used to say Rosabella inherited pride from our Spanish grandfather.

I think I have some of it, too; and it makes me shy of being introduced to your stylish acquaintance, who might blame you if they knew all about me.

I like people who do know all about me, and who like me because I am I.That's one reason why I like Florimond.

He admired my mother, and loved my father; and he thinks just as well of me as if I had never been sold for a slave." "Do you always call him Florimond ?" inquired Mrs.Delano.
"I call him Mr.Blumenthal before folks, and he calls me Miss Delano.
But when no one is by, he sometimes calls me Miss Royal, because he says he loves that name, for the sake of old times; and then I call him Blumen, partly for short, and partly because his cheeks are so pink, it comes natural.
