Mi esposa, que unas veces era Doña Inés, otras la dama feudal amada por
el trovador, y otras la doncella romántica de ojos pudorosos con una
rosa en la mano, se abría en los entreactos la pechera del vestido para
que la niña pudiera alimentarse, medio cegada por el resplandor de un
mechero.

My wife, who was at times Dona Ines, at others the feudal dame loved by a minstrel, and sometimes the romantic maiden with a demure look and a rose in her hand, would open the front of her dress during the intervals so that the girl could feed herself, half blinded by the glow of a lamp.

"El mechero o lámpara de alcohol es normalmente empleada cuando no se necesita un gran poder calorífico. Funciona con alcohol etílico que impregna una mecha de algodón (los más habituales tienen capacidad para 150 ml). El alcohol sube por capilaridad hacia la mecha, prende y se va consumiendo lentamente."
