Just at sunset, the air turned cold and the sky cloudy: I went in, Sophie called me upstairs to look at my wedding-dress, which they had just brought; and under it in the box I found your present--the veil which, in your princely extravagance, you sent for from London: resolved, I suppose, since I would not have jewels, to cheat me into accepting something as costly.
Sophie me llamó para que examinara mi vestido de boda, que acababa de traer en aquel momento. Encontré el velo que usted me regala y que, en su principesca extravagancia, ha hecho que me traigan de Londres, sin duda con objeto de chasquearme en mi propósito de no aceptar objetos costosos, como hice cuando me negué a aceptar las joyas.
