Quote, "An awful destiny!Juana, who felt neither esteem nor love for Diard, was bound to him forever, by a rash but necessary promise.

The man was neither handsome nor well-made.His manners, devoid of all distinction, were a mixture of the worst army tone, the habits of his province, and his own insufficient education.How could she love Diard, she, a young girl all grace and elegance."
