A
Roman Palazzo: Palazzo Farnese
""The object of Mr. Rosier's well-regulated affection dwelt in a high house in the very heart of rome; a dark and massive structure overlooking a sunny piazetta in the neighborhood of the Farnese Palace" (II:XXXVI). "It was not the form of exercise that Pansy
loved best, but she liked it, because she liked everything; and she moved
with a shorter undulation beside her father's wife, who afterwards, on
their return to Rome, paid a tribute to her preferences by making the circuit
of the Pincian or the Villa
Borghese. She had gathered a handful of flowers in a sunny hollow,
far from the walls of Rome, and on reaching Palazzo Roccanera, she went
straight to her room, to put them into order" (Chapter 40, p. 358).
