Passage-I

It is all beside the mark. The truth is that the “Mona Lisa” is a study of modeling.

It interested him to produce a smile wholly by these delicate changes of surface; hence the mysterious expression.

Passage-II

It is possible to give wedding presents, birthday and Christmas presents, without any thought of affection at all, they can be ordered by postcard; but the unbirthday present demands the nicest care.
