Граф Монте Кристо 1 часть

Slumber refused to visit his eyelids and the night was passed in feverish contemplation of the chain of circumstances tending to prove the identity of the mysterious visitant to the Colosseum with the inhabitant of the grotto of Monte Cristo; and the more he thought, the firmer grew his opinion on the subject.	Всю ночь он перебирал в уме разные обстоятельства, касавшиеся хозяина пещеры и незнакомца в Колизее и доказывавшие, что эти два человека одно и то же лицо; и чем больше Франц думал, тем больше утверждался в своем мнении.
Worn out at length, he fell asleep at daybreak, and did not awake till late.	Он заснул под утро и потому проснулся поздно.
Like a genuine Frenchman, Albert had employed his time in arranging for the evening's diversion; he had sent to engage a box at the Teatro Argentino; and Franz, having a number of letters to write, relinquished the carriage to Albert for the whole of the day.	Альбер, как истый парижанин, уже успел позаботиться о вечере и послал за ложей в театр Арджентина. Францу надо было написать письма в Париж, и потому он на весь день предоставил экипаж Альберу.
At five o'clock Albert returned, delighted with his day's work; he had been occupied in leaving his letters of introduction, and had received in return more invitations to balls and routs than it would be possible for him to accept; besides this, he had seen (as he called it) all the remarkable sights at Rome.	В пять часов Альбер вернулся; он развез рекомендательные письма, получил приглашения на все вечера и осмотрел достопримечательности Рима.
Yes, in a single day he had accomplished what his more serious-minded companion would have taken weeks to effect.	На все это Альберу хватило одного дня.
Neither had he neglected to ascertain the name of the piece to be played that night at the Teatro Argentino, and also what performers appeared in it.	Он даже успел узнать, какую дают пьесу и какие актеры играют.
The opera of	Давали
"Parisina" was announced for representation, and the principal actors were Coselli, Moriani, and La Specchia.	"Паризину"; играли Козелли, Мориани и г-жа Шпех.
The young men, therefore, had reason to consider themselves fortunate in having the opportunity of hearing one of the best works by the composer of	Молодым людям повезло; их ждало представление одной из лучших опер автора
"Lucia di Lammermoor," supported by three of the most renowned vocalists of Italy.	"Лючии Ламмермурской" в исполнении трех лучших артистов Италии.
Albert had never been able to endure the Italian theatres, with their orchestras from which it is impossible to see, and the absence of balconies, or open boxes; all these defects pressed hard on a man who had had his stall at the Bouffes, and had shared a lower box at the Opera.	Альбер, имевший свое кресло в Буффе и место в ложе бенуара в Опере, никак не мог примириться с итальянскими театрами, где не принято сидеть в оркестре и нет ни балконов, ни открытых лож.
Still, in spite of this, Albert displayed his most dazzling and effective costumes each time he visited the theatres; but, alas, his elegant toilet was wholly thrown away, and one of the most worthy representatives of Parisian fashion had to carry with him the mortifying reflection that he had nearly overrun Italy without meeting with a single adventure.	Однако это не мешало ему облачаться в ослепительный наряд всякий раз, когда он ездил с Францем в театр; но все было тщетно; к стыду одного из достойнейших представителей парижской светской молодежи, надо сознаться, что за четыре месяца скитаний по Италии Альбер не завязал ни одной интриги.
