[Letter XI] At the Torre del Carmine I took leave of my new acquaintance, and made the best of my way through the narrow windings of the old city to my first quarters, Madame Gasse's, the remnants of whose table d' hole afforded a hearty dinner to my keen appetite. After a stroll to the Thuilleries in the evening, and a fashionable circuit to two or three ice-cellars, I went to the opera, to see the new piece "Il Ballone Aërostatico." Of all the ludicrous things I ever saw, the quartett, between two people in the balloon half way up in the air, and two on terra firma below, had the most whimsical effect. |
