Capitolo 65

"I cannot really say my good person, woman", he responded, "I am sorry for
Your position, but you/he/she cannot afford to lose the lease of my room, I am
forced to pay my taxes, and it sustains him from the money that I receive
from lease."

"I cannot leave to-day", her Mrs. Wentworth cried in a desperate tone. "ME
you/he/she cannot leave to-day. Oh, gentleman! you look at my child that lies on that unfortunate
bed, and it tells me, if you can have the heart to result me, homeless,
without friends and alone."

"My good Donna", he responded. "I cannot help Your adversities, neither it is able
I make anything to assist her/it. If you can pay the lease, I have anybody
objection to remaining, but if you are not able, I will be forced
to find another tenant that will be able."

"Mr.", her remarked, slowly speaking. "I am a woman with two children,
alone in this State. My husband and protecting you/he/she is now languishing in a
Yankee jail, a sacrifice on the altar of his/her country. Allow me to ask to you
as a man, and perhaps a father, to make a first break you turn a defenseless woman
from the refuge of Your ownership. You appear rich, and the sum
debited for the lease it would do but few would differentiate to you, if it
it was never paid. Oh! I/you/he/she don't send forth us from this room. My child lies
there it burned with fever, and to remove can be her/it fatal."

"There is no necessity for some appeals to me", he responded. "If I were
I should be to give way to so eccentric applications in Your case,
made necessary to do so in others, and the result would be, that me
you/he/she should be himself/herself/themselves protecting all of my tenants without receiving some,
you pay for lease of house. Idea cannot be entertained for a moment."

"You leave that Your his/her own heart speaks", she said, "and not the promptings of
worldly thoughts. All those that you/they rented Your houses are not situated as me
it is. They is at home among friends that will help and they will assist them, if
necessity ever reached them. I go far street to house and friends.
