Notes: |
A photogravure: Maria. Here, a girl sits by a river-bank petting her dog; she has a flute on her lap, wears her long hair loose, and has a lace bodice. Next to her sits a man (the author), wearing a hat and coat, and shoes with knee-length stockings; he is gazing at her. He is in love with her. When we had got within half a league of Moulines, at a little opening in the road, leading to a thicket ,I discovered poor Maria sitting under a poplar. She was sitting with her elbow in her lap, and her head leaning on one side within her hand; a small brook ran at the foot of the tree. (p. 191) |
