They will hardly have passed theirs last examinations, and
gotten their diplomas of the ignorance, they will be dressed in the
last ways in London, and is turned out into the public walks.
They will walk for never the flooring of the Course, they will bring out
the alleys of the Pincian Hill, the Bourgeois Villa and the Villa
Pamphili. They wants ride, walked, and walked around, armed with a whip,
monocle, or it beats with a reed, as you/he/she can be, until them they are done for marrying himself/herself/themselves. Regular
to Mass, assiduous to the theater, you can see it smiles them, the to be to open mouth,
applauds, face the signal of the cross, with an equal absence of the emotion.
They is almost all writings on the list of some religious fraternity
or other. They belongs to any baton, games timidly, rarely face a parade
of the social irregularities, drinks without enthusiasm, and never the downfall
them from horse-racing. In short, their general behavior is over
every encomium; and the life of dolls made to say "Dad!" and "Mother!" it is
equally faultless.
One excellent day they reaches their twenty-fifth year. To this age, a
American you/he/she has already tried his/her hand to a dozen it deals, it did four
fortunes, and at least a failure, you/he/she has overcome a pair of
countries, had a report, established a religious and new sect, killed
men of mean-a-dozen with his/her revolver, sipped a negress, and it conquered a
island. An English has passed some rigid examinations, is
tied up to an embassy, it founded a factory, it converted a Catholic, gone
you round off the world, and reads the complete jobs of Walter Scott. A
French has rhymed a tragedy, written for two newspapers been
hurt in three duels, suicide twice tried irritated fourteen
husbands, and it changed his/her politics nineteen times. A German has
cut fifteen of his/her favorite friends, it swallowed sixty strokes of
beer and the Philosophy of Hegel, sing eleven thousand couplets,
jeopardized a wait-houseservant of tavern, it smoked a million pipes and state
mixed above with, at least, two revolutions.
