Tanto hablar
de París, y cuando Barbarita creía ver entrar a su hijo hecho una
lástima, todo rechupado y anémico, se le ve más gordo y lucio que
antes, con mejor color y los ojos más vivos, muchísimo más alegre, más
hombre en fin, y con una amplitud de ideas y una puntería de juicio que
a todos dejaba pasmados.

So much talk about Paris, and when Barbarita thought she saw her son come in looking pitiful, gaunt and anaemic, he looked fatter and more lucid than before, with better colour and livelier eyes, much happier, more manly, in short, and with a breadth of ideas and a sharpness of judgement that left everyone stunned.
