“She suffered incessantly, feeling herself born for all delicacies and luxuries.
She suffered from the poverty of her apartment, the shabby walls and the
worn chairs. All these things tortured and angered her.
When she seated herself for dinner opposite her husband who uncovered the
tureen with a delighted air, saying, “Oh! the good potpie! I know nothing
better than that...,” she would think of elegant dinners of shining silver; she
thought of the exquisite food served in marvellous dishes. She had neither
frocks nor jewels, nothing. And she loved only those things.
She had a rich friend, a schoolmate at the convent, who she did not like to
visit- she suffered so much when she returned. She wept for whole days from
despair and disappointment.”
