CHAPTER VII
CHAPTER VIII
One morning, about three years after his conviction, Costantino awoke
in a bad humour. The heat was oppressive, and the air of the cell was
heavy and sickening. One of the prisoners was snoring and puffing like
a kettle letting off steam.
Costantino had slept with Giovanna's last letter beneath his head, and
a sad little letter it was; short, and depressing in the extreme. She told
of her and her mother's dire poverty, and of the boy's serious illness. It
never occurred to Costantino to reflect how cruel it was to write to him
in this strain; he wanted to know the truth about them, however bad it
might be, and he felt that to share all Giovanna's sorrows and to
agonise over his inability to help her was a part of his duty. A barren
duty,—alas!—merely an increase of his misery.
