THE PRIMA DONNA CHAPTER XIV AT THE MAESTRO'S DOOR The house of the Maestro Rocco Ricci turned off the Borgo della Stella. Carlo Ammiani conducted Vittoria to the maestro's door. They conversed very little on the way. 'You are a good swordsman?' she asked him abruptly. 'I have as much skill as belongs to a perfect intimacy with the weapon,' he answered. 'Your father was a soldier, Signor Carlo.' |
