ABSTRACT

With voluptuous movements, with virginal gestures, with persuasive countenances, with girlish caresses, with lascivious glances, with sweet words – soothing and flattering they led me towards the place. I was happy with everything present, except that my golden-haired Polia was not there to complete my supreme felicity, being a sixth with them to constitute the perfect number. On the other hand, I was ill at ease because my clothing was not appropriate among this delightful company. But having made myself more at home, I began to be amiably jolly with them; and they were laughing sweetly, and I likewise was laughing with them. Finally we arrived at the place.
