Colomba
by Merimee, Prosper
Dans les premiers jours du mois d'octobre 181., le colonel sir Thomas Nevil, Irlandais, officier distingue de l'armee anglaise, descendit avec sa fille a l'hotel Beauveau, a Marseille, au retour d'un voyage en Italie. L'admiration continue des voyageurs enthousiastes a produit une reaction, et, pour se singulariser, beaucoup de touristes aujourd'hui prennent pour devise le nil admirari d'Horace. C'est a cette classe de voyageurs mecontents qu'appartenait miss Lydia, fille unique du colonel.
