CHAPTER II

He had, however, engaged to do more than proved feasible,M in promising to

present his aunt, Mrs. Costello, to Miss Daisy Miller. As soon as the former lady had got
better of her headache, he waited upon her in her apartment; and, after the proper
inquiries in regard to her health, he asked her if she had observed in the hotel an
American family—a mamma, a daughter, and a little boy."And a courier?" said Mrs.
Costello. "Oh yes, I have observed them. Seen them—heard them—and kept out of their
way." Mrs. Costello was a widow with a fortune; a person of much distinction, who
frequently intimated that, if she were not so dreadfully liable to sick headaches, she
would probably have left a deeper impress upon her time. She had a long, pale face, a
high nose, and a great deal of very striking white hair, which she wore in large puffs and
rouleaux over the top of her head. She had two sons married in New York and another
1
who was now in Europe. This young man was amusing him- self at Hamburg, and,
though he was on his travels, was rarely perceived to visit any particular city at the
moment selected by his mother for her own appearance there.

Her nephew, who had come up to Vevey expressly to see her, was therefore more
attentive than those who, as she said, were nearer to her. He had imbibed at Geneva the
idea that one must always be attentive to one's aunt. Mrs. Costello had not seen him for
many years, and she was greatly pleased with him, manifesting her approbation by
initiating him into many of the secrets of that social sway which, as she gave him to
understand, she exerted in the American capital. She admitted that she was very
exclusive; but, if he were acquainted with New York, he would see that one had to be.
And her picture of the minutely hierarchical constitution of the society of that city, which
she presented to him in many different lights, was, to Winterbourne's imagination, almost
oppressively striking.

 He immediately perceived, from her tone, that Miss Daisy Miller's place in the social
scale was low. "I am afraid you don't approve of them," he said.

"They are very common," Mrs. Costello declared. "They are the sort of Americans that one does
one's duty by not—not accepting."

"Ah, you don't accept them?" said the young man.

"I can't, my dear Frederick. I would if I could, but I can't."

"The young girl is very pretty," said Winterbourne in a moment.

"Of course she's pretty. But she is very common."

"I see what you mean, of course," said Winterbourne after

another pause.

"She has that charming look that they all have," his aunt resumed. "I can't think
where they pick up; and she dresses in perfection—no, you don't know how well she
dresses. I can't think where they get their taste."

"She has that charming look that they all have," his aunt resumed. "I can't think where
they pick it up; and she dresses in perfection—no, you don't know how well she dresses. I
can't think where they get their taste."

"But, my dear aunt, she is not, after all, a Comanche savage."

"She is a young lady," said Mrs. Costello, "who has an intimacy with her mamma's
courier."

"An intimacy with the courier?" the young man demanded.

"Oh, the mother is just as bad! They treat the courier like a familiar friend—like a
gentleman. I shouldn't wonder if he dines with them. Very likely they have never seen a
man with such good manners, such fine clothes, so like a gentleman. He probably

3
 corresponds to the young lady's idea of a count. He sits with them in the garden in the
evening. I think he smokes." 2

Winterbourne listened with interest to these disclosures; they helped him to make
up his mind about Miss Daisy. Evidently she was rather wild. "Well," he said, "I am not a
courier, and yet she was very charming to me."

"You had better have said at first," said Mrs. Costello with dignity, "that you had
made her acquaintance."

"We simply met in the garden, and we talked a bit."

"Tout bonnement! And pray what did you say?"

"I said I should take the liberty of introducing her to my admirable aunt."

"I am much obliged to you."

"It was to guarantee my respectability," said Winterbourne.

"And pray who is to guarantee hers "Ah, you are cruel!" said the young man.
"She's a very nice young girl."

"You don't say that as if you believed it," Mrs. Costello observed.

"You two are going off there together? I should say it proved just the contrary.
How long had you known her, may I ask, when this interesting project was formed? You
haven't been twenty-four hours in the house."

"I have known her half an hour!" said Winterbourne, smiling.

"Dear me!" cried Mrs. Costello. "What a dreadful girl!"

Her nephew was silent for some moments. "You really think, then," he began
earnestly, and with a desire for trustworthy information—"you really think that—" But
he paused again.

 "Think what, sir?" said his aunt.

"That she is the sort of young lady who expects a man, sooner or later, to carry
her off?"3

"I haven't the least idea what such young ladies expect a man to do. But I really
think that you had better not meddle with little American girls that are uncultivated, as
you call them. You have lived too long out of the country. You will be sure to make some
great mistake. You are too innocent."

"My dear aunt, I am not so innocent," said Winterbourne, smiling and curling his
mustache.

You are guilty too, then!" Winterbourne continued to curl his mustache
meditatively.

"You won't let the poor girl know you then?" he asked at last.

"Is it literally true that she is going to the Chateau de

Chillon with you?"

"I think that she fully intends it."

"Then, my dear Frederick," said Mrs. Costello, "I must decline the honor of her
acquaintance. I am an old woman, but I am not too old, thank Heaven, to be shocked!"

"But don't they all do these things—the young girls I America?" Winterbourne
inquired. Mrs. Costello stared a moment. "I should like to see my granddaughters do
them!" she declared grimly. This seemed to throw some light upon the matter, for
Winterbourne remembered to have heard that his pretty cousins in New York were
"tremendous flirts." If, therefore, Miss Daisy Miller exceeded the liberal margin allowed
to these young ladies, it was probable that anything might be expected of her.
Winterbourne was impatient to see her again, and he was vexed with himself that, by
instinct, he should not appreciate her justly.

 Though he was impatient to see her, he hardly knew what he should say to her
about his aunt's refusal to become acquainted with her; but he discovered, promptly
enough, that with Miss Daisy Miller there was no great need of walking on tiptoe. He
found her that evening in the garden, wandering about in the4

that she would be very approachable for consolatory purposes. He felt then, for
the instant, quite ready to sacrifice his aunt, conversationally; to admit that she was a
proud, rude woman, and to declare that they needn't mind her. But before he had time to
commit himself to this perilous mixture of gallantry and impiety, the young lady,
resuming her walk, gave an exclamation in quite another tone. "Well, here's Mother! I
guess she hasn't got Randolph to go to bed." The figure of a lady appeared at a distance,
very indistinct in the darkness, and advancing with a slow and wavering movement.
Suddenly it seemed to pause.

"Are you sure it is your mother? Can you distinguish her in this thick dusk?"
Winterbourne asked.

"Well!" cried Miss Daisy Miller with a laugh; "I guess I know my own mother.
And when she has got on my shawl, too! She is always wearing my things."

The lady in question, ceasing to advance, hovered vaguely about the spot at which
she had checked her steps.

"I am afraid your mother doesn't see you," said Winterbourne.

"Or perhaps," he added, thinking, with Miss Miller, the joke permissible—
"perhaps she feels guilty about your shawl."

"Oh, it's a fearful old thing!" the young girl replied serenely. "I told her she could
wear it. She won't come here because she sees you."

"Ah, then," said Winterbourne, "I had better leave you."

"Oh, no; come on!" urged Miss Daisy Miller.

 "I'm afraid your mother doesn't approve of my walking with you."

Miss Miller gave him a serious glance. "It isn't for me; it's for you—that is, it's for
her. Well, I don't know who it's for! But mother doesn't like any of my gentlemen friends.
She's right down timid. She always makes a fuss if I introduce a gentleman. But I do
introduce them—almost always. If I didn't introduce my gentlemen friends to Mother,"
the young girl added in her little soft, flat monotone, "I shouldn't think I was natural."5
