1857The Romany RyeWell, if you will not consent to be an abbess, perhaps you will consent to follow this young Zingaro, and to co-operate with him and us.1859The Atlantic Monthly (Volume 4, No. 24, Oct. 1859)Zonéla was surely not of gypsy blood. That rich auburn hair, that looked almost black in the lamp-light, that pale, transparent skin, tinged with an under-glow of warm rich blood, the hazel eyes, large and soft as those of a fawn, were never begotten of a Zingaro.1934Gypsy Vengeance (The Shadow Magazine, August 15, 1934)'Where did you come from in the first place?' asked the detective. 'Somewhere in Europe? Are you Zingaro?'Labels: George Borrow, Maxwell Grant, Various
