And no wonder, repeats the Chronicle, it was quite natural
For The Lady was as accomplished and polite as civil
But altho' so endowed, she had a fault
– For who is without fault –
It was so little (insignificant)
That you may call it an atom of dust upon the scarlet of a beautiful rose
And which was that fault? Know it:
"She was at variance with time"
She could not conceive the reason by what purpose
The time was divided into days, nights, and hours.
But she thought was of the opinion, that the eternal time
Is so good and so civil
That be it will, by pure mere regard for her, in the time of balls
Of balls and part dinners, and baptism days
It could stop (s'arreter) for several hours
And stay on one place point like an unmouveable rock.
With this delightful presumption
Her mode of life was analogous
For her The dawn was as at the noon-time, and the midnight at the dawn
Though she received invitation cards; and everywhere whas her that of honour was her place at the table the first
She Ther coach chase
She Her coach
She always arrived to dinner when the dinner was over
And To the the theatre, and when even the pe a new piece was performed
She Usually arrived when the last act was at the end.
even With As to the Church, it was not better. (Though it is a mortal sin.) She did not
come the before till the Bedle has shut the Church doors
But as she was the darling of her parents
They did made not reproaches her.
But the eternal lingers and delay (gurdrancis)
The Chronicle says
Must have something very enchanting and alluring about itself
Her admirers did not dismiss fall off
And thronged around her many, and noble
