Chonita entered the sala at eleven o'clock, looking like a snow queen.

At length he tore himself away, closed the door, and, crossing the sala, knocked at the door of the marchesa's apartment.

After the early supper the guests of Casa Grande, and our neighbors of the town, filled the sala, the large bare rooms adjoining, and the corridors.
