Pamela recounts her rags to riches London life and the Chodd scandal, while Kit Marlowe charms Jeanne, who finds herself entranced by a life beyond constraint and propriety.
In Count Paul’s study Jeanne and Wolfgang clash over satire and power as she parries his magnanimity with wit. She defends Miss Vivash against his condescension while probing his control, hinting at past towns and London scandal. Jeanne warns him before departing, leaving tension unresolved.
A fragment from Agee Rie 208 reflects on reading a poem aloud.

Novelty wraps in satin de Lyon and corded silks dominate outdoor garments while camel’s hair remains a favored texture for ordinary wear.

New colors include old gold, drab, pearl gray, lilac, lavender, pale lemon, white, and black with undyed kid leathers for warm weather. Silver eggs and spring-activated pencil watches, plus snake-skin pocket-books, round out the gifts for close friends.
