My Asiatic and Babylonian splendours arc very imperfect, and I scarcely manage to attain the midiatrilas a urea of Horace, A hermit might live her«." In point of fact, the room into which he had led Musidora was exceedingly plain. It had no other fur- niture than a very low divan which ran around it.
The walls, the ceiling, the floor were covered with accecdingly fine matting adorned with brilliant pat- terns. Through blinds of China reeds^ kept damp with scented water, showed the soft outlines
... of the distant landscape; the windows were glazed with white U6 FORTUNIO panes adorned with red vine-leaves. In the centre of the ceilings In a sort of round window, was fitted a glass globe filled with clear, limpid water, in which swam blue fishes with golden fins. Their constant motion filled the room with changing prismatic rcftec- tions which produced the most curious cfFcct. Exactly below the globe a small jet of water shot up in a slen- der crystal thread, that wavered at the least breath and fell back into a porphyry basin in pearly, sparkling spray • In one corner swung a palm-leaf hammock, and in the other stood a magnificent hookah, its supple bkck rings twisted around the rock-crystal vase adorned with silver filigree-work in which the smoke was cooled.
