It was extraordinary that not only was everybody fond of him, but all the hitherto unsympathetic, cold, or indifferent persons were delighted with him, gave way to him in everything, treated his feelings with delicate consideration, and shared his own opinion that he was the happiest man on earth because his betrothed was the height of perfection.
Era straordinario non solo che tutti lo amassero, ma che anche le persone antipatiche, fredde, indifferenti, ammirandolo, gli si sottomettessero in tutto e avessero pel suo sentimento tatto e tenerezza, condividendo la persuasione sua d’essere l’uomo più felice del mondo perché la sua fidanzata era il vertice di ogni perfezione.
