Status Updates From The Baron in the Trees

A low wind made a wave through the dense tufts of grass, in changing shades of green

From that moment on, the mania that propelled him, if still indefinite, became more acute

At that mysterious name, Cosimo pricked up his ears

So you can see how the table was the place where all the antagonisms emerged, the incompatibilities among us, along with all our follies and hypocrisies

I say benefited only as a manner of speaking: in reality for both corsimo and me then happy times were over, and we felt regret for the meals in our little room, the two of us alone with the Abbe.
