A menina soltou um grito de susto e entrou rapidamente no jardim, Álvaro apanhou no ar a pequena flor que se escapara dos dedos de Cecília e beijou-a julgando que ninguém ali estava. Quando o cavalheiro deu com os olhos na moça, ficou tão perturbado que deixou cair o jasmim sem sentir.

The setting

The girl let out a cry of fright and hurried into the garden. Álvaro caught in the air the little flower that had slipped from Cecília's fingers and kissed it, thinking no one was there. When the knight caught sight of the girl, he was so flustered that he let the jasmine fall without noticing.
