Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Pride, One of the Seven Cardinal Sins, Vol. 2 of 2: Illustrated With Etchings
Why, go, of course, my dear Hortense. You must do the honours of your house, certainly, replied Her minie, not sorry, perhaps, to be left alone awhile.
So Mlle. Herbaut rejoined her mother, who was wel coming Ernestine with simple cordiality.
You will soon become used to our ways, my dear, she was saying. The young girls and the young men dance in the dining-room, while their mothers and fathers - when they come - play cards in the draw ing-room, so you see each guest amuses himself to his liking.
