couldnt stand the nurseseveningoff aspect of it.You.Sure.

We looked at each other in the dark
We looked at each other in the dark.The next year there were many victories. All fire and smoke and nothing inside. the lieutenant said. stepping carefully among the wounded. sometimes it backed on a turn. As far as I could make out the last mile or so of the new road where it started to level out would be able to be shelled steadily by the Austrians. Then I floated. They take your home. Or shot through the shoulder. Im sending you now with the English ambulance. The forest had been green in the summer when we had come into the town but now there were the stumps and the broken trunks and the ground torn up. But if you have had it you know. The shock dulls the pain; but this is all right.

 Perhaps. It was really very large and beautiful and there were fine trees in the grounds. But youre very nice. I decided to go on upstairs.I was very dusty and dirty and went up to my room to wash.Yes. He can handle the English.I felt his breath come toward me. Well stop by the road here. Up the river the mountains had not been taken; none of the mountains beyond the river had been taken. The road was screened because it was in sight of the Austrians across the river. doing things that hurt sharply and severing tissue Are you sureMe trying to lie still and feeling my stomach flutter when the flesh was cut. People lived on in it and there were hospitals and cafe and artillery up side streets and two bawdy houses. I put thumb and fingers into the macaroni and lifted.

 We parked the cars beyond a brickyard. Manera said. I said. Now Ill probe for some of this if you like but its not necessary. It is just bad administration. Passini said respectfully. My orderly had finished pouring water and the bed felt cool and lovely and I was telling him where to scratch on the soles of my feet against the itching when one of the doctors brought in Rinaldi. I was still angry and as I held her suddenly she shivered. then came the chuh chuhchuh chuh then there was a flash.Thats nothing. When this road was finished the offensive would start. There were many marble busts on painted wooden pillars along the walls of the room they used for an office. I said. The ground was torn up and in front of my head there was a splintered beam of wood.

Its rotten. Tenente. A shell burst short near the river bank. Well. I said. It does not go so well.You must go on leave at once.Bring him in. Her hand had hit my nose and eyes.We shook hands and he put his arm around my neck and kissed me. the shellmarked iron of the railway bridge.I didnt know about anything then.Ill be right here. I could look down through the woods and see.

 Youve had it before. How is GordiniHes all right. When he stopped swishing and fell asleep they came down and I blew them away and finally covered my face with my hands and slept too. then came the chuh chuhchuh chuh then there was a flash. because they did not bombard it to destroy it but only a little in a military way. the lieutenant said. I looked in the door of the big room and saw the major sitting at his desk.At dinner I ate very quickly and left for the villa where the British had their hospital. said Passini.I would like to go with you and show you things. Rinaldi said that the French had mutinied and troops marched on Paris.Were you thereNo. Goodby. Then he was quiet.

 He laughed. He came back with a handful of roasted coffee beans.Be a good boy and be careful.Not Strega. I saw the blanket open.Ill take the American Tenente. It would only be worse if we stopped fighting. All right. But the little Scotch one is very nice. He started with the upright thumb and named in their order the thumb and four fingers. One side must stop fighting. far below. great general but he looked like a man. Dont be a bloody hero.

 But they say a Saint Anthonys very useful.Bersaglieri have run too. The river ran behind us and the town had been captured very handsomely but the mountains beyond it could not be taken and I was very glad the Austrians seemed to want to come back to the town some time. In the bed of the river there were pebbles and boulders. Ill look up their adjutant to do your papers and it will all go much faster. bronzes looked like something. His nose was skinned and there was dust on the bloody patch and dust in his hair. that there had been three others. This was a joke. He stopped working and smiled. They come back for me.Yes. Rinin. New girls never been to the front before.

 British ambulance drivers were killed sometimes. they would not be loaded. The river ran behind us and the town had been captured very handsomely but the mountains beyond it could not be taken and I was very glad the Austrians seemed to want to come back to the town some time. The frescoes were not bad. I kissed both her shut eyes.I walked behind her out into the garden. little puppy. I learn how to do it. Why do you get yourself woundedYou can make fun of the priest. I had a drink with a captain that I knew in one of the dugouts and went back across the bridge.It is a filthy and vile book. In the bed of the river there were pebbles and boulders. I did not want to go there anyway. Bersaglieri are fools.

Ill go and see now.All right. Stretcher bearers came in all the time.They cant do anything. biting his arm. when they wouldnt attack and they shot every tenth manNo. He brought them over to me. Passini said. I drove back to Gorizia and our villa and. I will go now and bring her here. The mechanics were working on one out in the yard. I lied.He wiped his hands on his jumper and grinned.I pressed her hand.

 dry and white in the sun. The men were hot and sweating. TaorminaYou talk like a timetable.I looked in her eyes and put my arm around her as I had before and kissed her.Rinaldi was talking with the other nurse. One killed and the fellow that brought you.I cut the cheese into pieces and laid them on the macaroni. Its good. the car looking disgraced and empty with the engine open and parts spread on the work bench. you see. The road here was below the level of the river bank and all along the side of the sunken road there were holes dug in the bank with infantry in them. youre very good. Its only the ambulance.Bersaglieri.

 Catherine. He was sitting up beside one of the brick walls. the pillars with the marble busts.Well be most careful of them. Passini said. They were laughing.Goodnight. she said. on purpose.The battery in the next garden woke me in the morning and I saw the sun coming through the window and got out of the bed.As the ambulance climbed along the road.Well be most careful of them.The Italians didnt want women so near the front. That night in the mess after the spaghetti course.

I sat on a chair and held my cap. three men nurses and a doctor and picked you up out of bed and carried you into the dressing room so that the beds could be made while we were having our wounds dressed. You wont worry now.There were small gray motor cars that passed going very fast usually there was an officer on the seat with the driver and more officers in the back seat. But the little Scotch one is very nice.A new wide road was being finished that would go over the mountain and zigzag down to the bridge. and well see. That left three. sometimes it backed on a turn. when you lie here all the time in the hot weather dont you get excitedSometimes. FrancoI am all right.Cough. I said to Gordini. It would not finish it if one side stopped fighting.

 I went on home. then stopped and kissed her. Did you think I was Italian There were some Italians with one of our units.Ill walk down with you. I say he bellows!I would like you to go to Abruzzi. The town was very nice and our house was very fine. first fingers extended. Goodnight. baby. The officers were not good but dull. Ill look up their adjutant to do your papers and it will all go much faster. We drank the second grappa. I kissed her hard and held her tight and tried to open her lips; they were closed tight.Its better to wear him.

 which every one ate very quickly and seriously.No. my bed was made up with blankets and my things hung on the wall. go to hell. He was goodlooking. There isnt always an explanation for everything. It would have been much simpler.After a while we said good-night and left. There were many more guns in the country around and the spring had come. she said. There were not enough stretchers. the meal was finished. brown mountains with a little green on their slopes.I left them working.

 I had on wool stockings but Passini wore puttees. I will probably marry Miss Barkley.How do you do Miss Barkley said.All right. He didnt have a sabre cut. It tells you about those priests. I asked him what happened and he said. We work very hard but no one trusts us.I didnt carry anybody.I think we can get you the silver. Firenze. It did not have anything to do with me.All right. The sun was going down and the day was cooling off.

He ought to go to Capri.Yes.What is itThe man on the stretcher over me has a hemorrhage.Im not.Ive come back to Catherine in the night. I said. I tried to move sideways so that it did not fall on me.That doesnt matter.I thought you said he was a Frenchman. We were just beginning to get some of them. Oh oh oh oh. I just couldnt stand the nurseseveningoff aspect of it.You.Sure.
