Those drawers were to me a museum; in them I always came across something rare or antique, which exhaled an archaic and mysterious scent, the aroma of the sandalwood fans which perfumed her white linen.

 Fascinating Stories of Spanish Life Emilia Pardo-Bazan and Others LITTLE BLUE BOOK NO. 1195 Edited by E. Haldeman-Julius HALDEMAN-JULIUS COMPANY GIRARD, KANSAS CONTENTS First Love _Emilia Pardo-Bazan._ An Andalusian Duel _Serafin Estebanez Calderon._ Mariquita the Bald _Juan Eugenio Hartzenbusch._ The Love of Clotilde _Armando Palacio Valdés._ Captain Veneno's Proposal of Marriage _Pedro Antonio de Alarcón._ FIRST LOVE Emilia Pardo-Bazan How old was I then? Eleven or twelve years? More probably thirteen, for before then is too early to be seriously in love; but I won't venture to be certain, considering that in Southern countries the heart matures early, if that organ is to blame for such perturbations. If I do not remember well _when_, I can at least say exactly _how_ my first love revealed itself. I was very fond--as soon as my aunt had gone to church to perform her evening devotions--of slipping into her bedroom and rummaging her chest of drawers, which she kept in admirable order.
