Gets acquainted with the O'Neill brothers, who he visits during his trip to Portugal in 1866:

"By the way, as luck would have it, a cruel arrow has struck me right in the heart.

The eldest seems a little too serious and silent, but of late I like him far more, as he so kindly approached me and showed me some Italian and Portuguese opera texts; otherwise we did not talk much, for a number of reasons"
