CHAPTER III. -- --These are the Villains Whom all the Travellers do fear so much. -- ------Some of them are Gentlemen Such as the fury of ungoverned Youth Thrust from the company of awful Men. Two Gentlemen of Verona. The Marquis and Lorenzo proceeded to the Hotel in silence.
The Former employed himself in calling every circumstance to his mind, which related might give Lorenzo's the most favourable idea of his connexion with Agnes.
The Latter, justly alarmed for the honour of his family, felt embarrassed by the presence of the Marquis: The adventure which He had just witnessed forbad his treating him as a Friend; and Antonia's interests being entrusted to his mediation, He saw the impolicy of treating him as a Foe.
He concluded from these reflections, that profound silence would be the wisest plan, and waited with impatience for Don Raymond's explanation. They arrived at the Hotel de las Cisternas.
The Marquis immediately conducted him to his apartment, and began to express his satisfaction at finding him at Madrid.
