Excerpt from The Lily of the Arno: Or Florence, Past and Present
The coal-dealer is rigid in the observance of all holi days. He is ready at any time to close his door, place his felt hat jauntily over his left ear, take his little son by the hand, and seek the Arno bank, if any spectacle, such as dragging the current of the river for the corpse of a. Suicide, invite his interest. Failing result of such grew some dredging, he contents himself with basking in the sun with his back to the parapet, and inspecting the feathers on the hats of the ladies, the jewels sparkling in their ears, the rich furs, as the file of brilliant equipages passes in the drive of the afternoon to the Cascine.
Who so proudly elated as the son of the widower, on such occasions? A fig for stay-at - home, coddling mothers and sisters, if one can walk abroad with the father, making shrill, infantile comments on men and things, so patiently and indulgently responded to by the daddy (babbo) in the streets.
