Even the hostess, with bare feet, uncombed hair, and dressed in a garment of doubtful color, received the guests grumblingly.

"You had better lay the cloth below in the stable," said one of the travellers; "there, at all events, one knows what one is breathing."

The windows were quickly opened, to let in a little fresh air.
窗子都大开着，好让新鲜空气流进来。
Quicker, however, than the breeze, the withered, sallow arms of the beggars were thrust in, accompanied by the eternal whine of "Miserabili, miserabili, excellenza!"

some in verse, some in prose, most of them not very laudatory of "bella Italia."
有些是诗歌，有些是散文，大多数都不是在赞美“美丽的意大利”。
