Excerpt from A Senhora Rattazzi
Mulher escriptora, por via de regra pouco exceptuada, é um homem por dentro. O coração, que devia, ser uma, de suavíssimas lagrimas, faz - se-lhe boti ja, de tinta; e as dôces penas da alma metallisam-se - lhe aguçadas em pennas de ago. 0 fuso de Lucrecia, e da rainha, Bertha desfez-se em canetas. Em vez de tecerem 0 seu braga], urdem intrí gas. Suspiram publicamente em 8.º por tuguez, 250 paginas; e, quando não suspiram, bufam coletas represadas, di zem que tem ídêas, que se querem emancipar, muito aziumadas, naturalis tas, com um grande ar de pimponas que entraram no segredo dos processos.
