I feel a little unwell. Audiffret reappears with the Marquis de Saëtone — I didn't blush, thank God.
I have scarcely slept — a dreadful cold was tormenting me.
God has had mercy on me. He deigned to hear my desperate prayer — it was only the effect of the cold.
I took all my lessons and am pleased.
Unfortunately I do not forget — it calms my anger, but it is a great sin before God.
I am not going to church — but Dina, that pious creature, certainly will, her hair curled at the front, taking care to display her most golden locks...
I did not miss my lessons and am satisfied. Appetite comes with eating, and love of study comes with studying. I had begun to despair — I feared I...
Why the devil am I not as attractive by day as I am in the evening!
I am going to Monte-Carlo — that is, I am invited to go; Maman asks me to come so that the party may be complete.
I wake at noon, lunch at half past two, and at three o'clock Biasini arrives with plans and drawings. We build, undo, draw again, and I believe this...
We went as far as Valrose — Nina wanted to see Derwies, their former steward and someone they had helped. How the roles have changed! It is she who...
It had been agreed last evening that we would go riding — Pâris, Paul, and young Lubimoff, that little creature of pitiful appearance, dressed like a...
Ange's husband has arrived and they paid us a visit, as did Patton and Mme Howard. I met Lise and Hélène on the Promenade — tomorrow they are coming...
It seems to me that Dina has overheard how I recounted her foolishness — for up to now there has been nothing, and what could there be? She is...
M. Allen and family have arrived.
Nina and Pâris are with us, looking for lodgings in Nice. I went out very little. We had a little tea-party this evening — a few people only: M. and...
I go to the concert with Dina — our people are at Monaco. M. de Patton is giving a party this evening to which they have not been invited. Death to...
It is cold — cold as winter; I have no doubt that the mountains are covered in snow. (Brown Worth dress, Manby jacket, Parisian collar — nice.)
Nous étions trois sur le devant, moi, Dina et Zoé, en noir et très élégantes. Tout à coup ma tante dit: - Et voilà Merjeewsky.
While Maman and Dina were at church we were greatly frightened — Dori collapsed dead from the bed. She was sent to Walitsky who, by means of...
Ange with her husband, Pelikan with his daughter, and Bihovetz and Daniloff lunch with us at home. I find the lunch was far too good for such simple...
I was at the concert, but I felt badly dressed, I do not know why.
Mmes Prodgers and la Vigier are here.
