Noemi

Noemi, who had remained true to the faith of her fathers, divided her time between Brussels and Italy.

"I have had a letter from Italy," she said, after gently waving aside Noemi's pressing inquiries.

Here Carlino interrupted his story, avowing, in parenthesis, that he really did not know what kind of belief Noemi held.

Nevertheless Jeanne and Noerni leaned for some time against the parapet, gazing into the gloomy depths; Noemi talked incessantly.

His sister and Noemi aroused themselves and started in the direction of the Rue des Laines.
