I Y Single De Sus Found Pass Evening

Back when I found that I could not pass a single evening, nor even a single hour of the day with her in comfort; that kindly conversation could not be sustained between us, because whatever topic I started, immediately received from her a turn at once coarse and trite, perverse and imbecile--when I perceived that I should never have a quiet or settled household, because no servant would bear the continued outbreaks of her violent and unreasonable temper, or the vexations of her absurd, contradictory, exacting orders--even then I restrained myself: I eschewed upbraiding, I curtailed remonstrance; I tried to devour my repentance and disgust in secret; I repressed the deep antipathy I felt.
Front A cuanto yo hablaba respondía con contestaciones groseras y chabacanas, perversas y estúpidas. Ningún criado paraba en la casa, porque no podían soportar los arrebatos de mal carácter de mi mujer, sus abusos ni sus órdenes absurdas y contradictorias.
