Truly these women are wonderful creatures; changeable and uncertain in their tempers, as the vane on the topmast head! At one moment, my lovely Marchioness vowed she would enter a convent, or see me no more; and the next she was all love and affection. At one time, overcome by fears that her husband, I suppose, in a fit of jealousy, would attempt my life, and then forgetting all about the matter. The truth is, she loves me to distraction, when a woman is always full of alarms; but methinks none of my nobles are of that jealous disposition, that they would endeavour to revenge themselves for the honour I pay their wives.

I thought that Donna Theresa's fears arose from idle fancies, though I now suspect she had some foundation for her warnings, observed the King.

Sebastiao Joze, however, will discover whatever is wrong.

The country is truly blessed, which possesses so good a King, and so wise a Minister,

Which way are we going?

I ordered him to drive the usual way, past the Quinta da Cima, and down by the Quinta do Meyo, answered Teixeira.

We are now near approaching the arch of do Meyo.
