Two carabinieri held the car up
Two carabinieri held the car up. thats nothing to how it will feel later. she said. I wore one when we went up to the posts and carried an English gas mask. brought by Gordini who looked very white and sick. There were trees along both sides of the road and through the right line of trees I saw the river. The major was at the telephone sitting on a box.Ah. The others were shouting. it was slow in the traffic. Its only a little sometimes. If youve got a fracture you dont want inflammation. I hurried up the driveway and inside the reception hall I asked for Miss Barkley.
And then you are so very beautiful. Well crack in France. if the war should end. When I came back to the front we still lived in that town.Im going on. I said.At dinner I ate very quickly and left for the villa where the British had their hospital. felt him climb up into the front seat.All right. He looked at the priest and shouted. baby How do you feel I bring you this It was a bottle of cognac. baby.Passinis dead.
Firenze. she said.When you come back bring a phonograph. I think so.Ive come back to Catherine in the night. How is GordiniHes all right.It is very valuable.No.Slit the tunic. Then. I had gone to no such place but to the smoke of cafe and nights when the room whirled and you needed to look at the wall to make it stop.Most of them dont. Outside the window it was a lovely spring morning.
Outside the sergeant adjutant knelt down beside me where I lay. He started the car. but the nights were cool and there was not the feeling of a storm coming. and my winter boots. I tried to move sideways so that it did not fall on me. I wanted to go to the Hartz Mountains. and a few more houses had been hit by shell fire. Thats what keeps you from being court martialled for self inflicted wounds. I wished I were in Milan with her.Sit down to it. You see the point. is a short cut. I took another mouthful and some cheese and a rinse of wine.
with many tastes alike.Wop. It ought to be good. At first it dropped slowly and regularly. Please put your hand there again. We stopped at the side of the road. Really. Driving in convoy is not unpleasant if you are the first car and I settled back in the seat and watched the country. I had gone to no place where the roads were frozen and hard as iron. The war was changed too. the stump of his leg twitching. Oh Jesus lovely Mary stop it. He lived in Udine and came out in this way nearly every day to see how things were going.
Drink that.It would be fine if you would take the cars. my bed was made up with blankets and my things hung on the wall.I dried my hands and took out my pocketbook from the inside of my tunic hanging on the wall. They carried wounded in and brought them out. The cognac is under the bed. Miss Ferguson was with her. I could not see the guns but they were evidently firing directly over us. It does not go so well. Passini said sarcastically.Do the men know that who attackI dont think so. Sculpture had always seemed a dull businessstill.It is very valuable.
He said that if the thing went well he would see that I was decorated. and the argument went on. I wore a real one and felt like a gunman until I practised firing it. Through the other noise I heard a cough. I said I thought they had them. I did not care what I was getting into. Tell me just exactly how it happened. The snow slanted across the wind. maybe yes. He patted Gordini on the shoulder. I should drink cup for cup and glass for glass with Bassi. and I spoke Italian. I forget exactly what they were.
The captain waved to me. TenenteWhere is Gordini and GavuzziGordinis at the post getting bandaged. you cant kiss me here. But they say a Saint Anthonys very useful. I would like to eat at the Cova and then walk down the Via Manzoni in the hot evening and cross over and turn off along the canal and go to the hotel with Catherine Barkley. You could stay with my family. Well take you back with us. Im all right. baby. It is just bad administration. Bring him a glass of brandy. At the gate of the driveway that led up to the British villa. and went through the trenches in the smasheddown town and along the edge of the slope.
Good evening. First we passed the regiment. I suppose it was mutual tolerance because the Austrians still kept a bridgehead further down the river.Yes. Its much cooler. Is there anything youd like to talk aboutBut I do love you. It was a hot day and there were many flies in the room. They were moderately clean.You did exactly right. But even the peasants know better than to believe in a war.The Pope wants the Austrians to win the war. darling. Put it on the floor.
Now the fighting was in the next mountains beyond and was not a mile away.The next afternoon we heard there was to be an attack up the river that night and that we were to take four cars there. I said. Your lovely cool goddess.I went out to look at the cars and see what was going on and then came back and sat down in the dugout with the four drivers. I learn how to do it. Signor Tenente. This took place at B?ziers.After a while I walked with her to the door of the villa and she went in and I walked home.It was dark outside and the long light from the search lights was moving over the mountains. Here now we have beautiful girls. They did very well last summer. Isnt itWhat is the stick I asked.
We passed a long column of loaded mules. A V.They dont give them like that. I said and went back to the house and drank another bowl of coffee at the mess table. I never hurt anybody. said the major.Ill take the American Tenente. far below.We kissed and she broke away suddenly. They would take me as soon as possible. I wore one when we went up to the posts and carried an English gas mask. the dust rising from the wheels and going off through the trees. He was the Kings uncle and commanded the third army.
stirred by the breeze.Three hundred fives. the stump of his leg twitching. The saint hung down on the Outside of my uniform and I undid the throat of my tunic.I say its rotten. She let me take it and I held it and put my arm around under her arm. Yes.Is there anything I can do. Theres no place to drop it. Tenente.You did say you loved me. They were sitting in the dugout talking and when I came in they stopped. No.
The orderly brought a chair and he sat down.I washed. Goodby. Please put your hand there again. When I came back to the front we still lived in that town.All right.Well crack. Underneath we are the same.Jesus Christ. I kissed her hard and held her tight and tried to open her lips; they were closed tight.How are the cars Manera asked. the instruments shining in the light. We talk too much even for the Tenente.
you have nothing to worry about if it doesnt infect and it rarely does now. it seemed. I said in English. darling. He came in very fast and bent down over the bed and kissed me. It was quite evident he had stolen the bonds.No. We went on and passed the regiment about a mile ahead. It was quiet.Will you tell her how sorry I amYes. My legs felt warm and wet and my shoes were wet and warm inside. I lay still and let the pain ride.I will send Miss Barkley.
