We are not peasants. I said.

 You may come and see her after seven oclock if you wish
 You may come and see her after seven oclock if you wish.They are big through the chest by measurement. great general but he looked like a man.5 mm. Ill always come back. But youre very nice. gentlemen.Goodnight. I stop by. I knew. They would take me as soon as possible.Fine.How are you.Goodevening.Bassi wins.Also they make money out of it.

 I looked across the wire at the Austrian lines. I looked back and saw the three cars all climbing.You dont wear himNo. when they wouldnt attack and they shot every tenth manNo. Bless me. That is why we have this war. I thought she was very beautiful. It does not go so well.Do we eat yet.You dont need to say a lot of nonsense. I said. I said.You dont need to say a lot of nonsense. There was a cough. Oh Jesus shoot me Christ shoot me mama mia mama Mia oh purest lovely Mary shoot me. I had imagined that the condition of the cars.

 The lieutenant.Oh. Hes a better man than I am. Now the fighting was in the next mountains beyond and was not a mile away. Rinaldi shook his head. I thought somebody was screaming. I couldnt move. he said to me.You have beautiful hair. What made it pretty was that it sounded like Island. But youre very nice. Manera said. but instead we had Ii Generale Cadorna. There had been a little town but it was all rubble. I said.Captain doctor (interested in something he was finding).

 TaorminaYou talk like a timetable. and the frescoes on the wall and waited for Miss Barkley.Hello.Kiss me. But I found a place where the cars would be sheltered after they passed that last badlooking bit and could wait for the wounded to be brought across the pontoon bridge. It was the first time I had ever heard her laugh. Now I must go back to sleep to be fresh and beautiful for Miss Barkley. She did not seem tall walking toward me but she looked very lovely.I wish you were back. Now the fighting was in the next mountains beyond and was not a mile away. sitting on the small of my back. There are much worse wounded than me. You see I didnt care about the other thing and he could have had it all. I said in English.Fine. Suddenly to care very much and to sleep to wake with it sometimes morning and all that had been there gone and everything sharp and hard and clear and sometimes a dispute about the cost.

 Everybody is proud of you. an ambulance was waiting by the side door and inside the door. The snow slanted across the wind. baby How do you feel I bring you this It was a bottle of cognac. Im not. I felt something dripping. we are. Thats where the money comes from.Yes.In the legs. Fillipo Vincenza Bassi or Bassi Fillippo Vicenza had never touched a drop all evening and what was his name anyway He said was my name Frederico Enrico or Enrico Federico I said let the best man win. This is close to the front. They are all without law to protect them. sir. Helen. brushed my hair and we started.

 Manera said. although I learned it later. Drink that. A. the thumb up and fingers outspread as when you make shadow pictures. and instead of going on I felt myself slide back. went to the jail and asked to see the priest.Youre dirty. under a hill beyond the river. This chap of yours was very anxious for me to see you. without embarrassment. Not Ba?chus.Also they make money out of it. Bassi said no that was no test because he had already drunk twice as much as I.He does really.How are you.

 Now everything is arranged.Are you hit badly he asked.Beyond the mule train the road was empty and we climbed through the hills and then went down over the shoulder of a long hill into a river valley. the long barrels of the guns covered with green branches and green leafy branches and vines laid over the tractors. was blonde and had a tawny skin and gray eyes. What kind of time did you haveMagnificent. He shook his head at me. Rinaldi took the note. At the foot of the bed was my flat trunk. I did hurt you. crossed the pontoon bridge. You get out and fall down by the road and get a bump on your head and Ill pick you up on our way back and take you to a hospital. Tell me just exactly how it happened. These V. The Austrian trenches were above on the hillside only a few yards from the Italian lines. Drink that.

They cant do anything.Where is the gasoline park nowAt the same place.Poor man. I had gone to no place where the roads were frozen and hard as iron.Well crack. Firenze. One side must stop fighting. I said that was a foul lie and. But dont bring a lot of Italians.Its way out.As the ambulance climbed along the road.I am happy. Something landed outside that shook the earth. I stop by. Jt was warm and like the spring and I walked down the alleyway of trees. said the priest.

It was because we were scared. I watched her face. I do not believe in the Free Masons however. shes very nice. I love you too much. There was nothing to write about.The next afternoon we heard there was to be an attack up the river that night and that we were to take four cars there. then from all the guns behind us the bombardment started. I said I thought they had them. They were sitting in the dugout talking and when I came in they stopped. He shook his head at me. Where did you meet her In the Cova Where did you go How did you feel Tell me everything at once. They were afraid. and well see.Theyll shell the   out of us. He could have had anything he wanted if I would have known.

 Naples.Shes not awfully well. Drink that. higher snow mountains.Isnt there anywhere we can goNo. I say its rotten.How are you.Go to hell. I denied this. I did not care what I was getting into. He breathed very heavily. I wouldnt be able to get the stretcher out alone.The granatieri are tall. I knew it. Rinaldi came in while I was undressing. went to the jail and asked to see the priest.

Wed take quite good care of them and return them to the villa. Manera and Gavuzzi each went off with a load of wounded. The major said he had heard a report that I could drink.Saint Anthony asked the driver. The lieutenant said I slipped the truss on purpose.All right.Im awfully tired. A shell had fallen and while we waited three others fell up the road. One is dead. he explained to me. It was the first time I had ever heard her laugh. Rinaldi carried a holster stuffed with toilet paper. and in the fall when the rains came the leaves all fell from the chestnut trees and the branches were bare and the trunks black with rain. I wore one when we went up to the posts and carried an English gas mask.Can Gordini driveI dont think so. Ill send your English girl.

 after all. I could see the river far down below. dry and white in the sun.We think. We work very hard but no one trusts us. Ive known him before.Whats the matter nowNew rings.Thank you for the coffee beans. He slapped the bed with his glove. You wont worry now. then from all the guns behind us the bombardment started.It could not be worse. Ive seen the holes. I wanted to go to the Black Forest. I was after him. What was the matter with this war Everybody said the French were through.

 That day I visited the posts in the mountains and was back in town late in the afternoon. however. said Passini. Rinaldi shook his head. Not very well.The captain.Arent you a nurseOh.Do the men know that who attackI dont think so. We in the auto ambulance cannot even realize at all how bad it is. the major said. Maria. I said. sometimes it backed on a turn. Oh oh oh oh. said the major. he straightened up.

 I said. I said. You are my great and good friend and financial protector.I know how you talk. stepping carefully among the wounded. Shes a nurse.Bersaglieri have run too.I will get it for you. My knee wasnt there. We crossed the brickyard. Another nurse was with her.Outside something was set down beside the entrance.I felt his breath come toward me.I went back to the majors dugout and he said the field kitchen would be along and the drivers could come and get their stew. cartridges.Abbastanza bene.

Rinaldi picked up the candle. sucking in the ends. said Passini and spat on the floor. I lowered it into the mouth.A rivederla. A. Its only the ambulance. The British hospital was a big villa built by Germans before the war. my bed was made up with blankets and my things hung on the wall.Tonight you will tell me everything. I do. The major was a little man with upturned mustaches. it seemed. You will be decorated. No one to come in at night from adventures. They arent girls; they are old war comrades.

 he straightened up. Signor Tenente. she said. I said. Bless me. I got out and told the driver to go on and that if we had not caught up to them at the junction of the road to Cormons to wait there. He had always known what I did not know and what. Im leaving now for a show up above Plava. The fields were green and there were small green shoots on the vines. I was after him.Were not far from the top. Beautiful young girlsaccompanied by their mothers. They returned it with his things. Sometimes still pleasant and fond and warm and breakfast and lunch.I saw Catherine Barkley coming down the hall. He did not see me and I did not know whether to go in and report or go upstairs first and clean up.

 Close to the bank I saw deep pools. but not losing sight of the priest.Im afraid it will make it bigger. isnt there I was brought up to think there was. Ill look up their adjutant to do your papers and it will all go much faster.Probably. The officers were not good but dull. She wore what seemed to me to be a nurses uniform.You love Italy Rinaldi asked Miss Ferguson in English. Then there was one that we did not hear coming until the sudden rush. Or shot through the shoulder. she said. God.Look. I come to see you again soon. I tried to move but I could not move.

 It was the first time I had ever heard her laugh.At the start of the winter came the permanent rain and with the rain came the cholera. I looked back and saw Rinaldi standing watching me and waved to him. They returned it with his things. I dressed. Why did you join up with the ItaliansI was in Italy. You havent any fracture.The next year there were many victories. Hang onto my neck. but it was not Catherine. I suppose. Im something called a V. There were lighted candles on the table.Bring Caruso. We are not peasants. I said.
