And when her husband told her to give up her pride, she answered sharply
and shortly and said that she had come from an excellent family-he seemed an
unlikely man to have married her, since her father had formerly been mayor of
the town of N- and afterwards had been alderman of the prestigious Guild of the
Trinity in N-. And therefore she maintained the lofty status of her kin, no matter

as she did. Her whole desire was to have people admire her. She would not put

was, but always desired more and more.
