Saracinesca

CHAPTER III
18/35

Donna Tullia is a relation.

The union of two such fortunes will be of immense advantage to your children.

There is everything in favour of the match--nothing against it.

You shall marry her a month from to-day.

I will give you the title of Sant' Ilario, with the estate outright into the bargain, and the palace in the Corso to live in, if you do not care to live here." "And if I refuse ?" asked Giovanni, choking down his anger.
"If you refuse, you shall leave my house a month from to-day," said the Prince, savagely.
"Whereby I shall be fulfilling your previous commands, in setting up an establishment for myself and living like a gentleman," returned Giovanni, with a bitter laugh.
