She had sent a carpenter
to measure the front pew...

1:09:07
...in case it might be altered
to accommodate her.

1:09:10
But this idea,
like the great lady herself...

1:09:13
...was unwieldy, and she settled
for giving the wedding breakfast.

1:09:19
The Countess Olenska sent her regrets.
She was traveling with an aunt.

1:09:24
But gave the bride and groom
an exquisite piece of old lace.

1:09:29
Two elderly aunts in Rhinebeck
offered a honeymoon cottage.

1:09:33
Since it was thought "very English"
to have a country house on loan...

1:09:39
...their offer was accepted.
1:09:41
When the house proved suddenly
uninhabitable, however...

1:09:45
...Henry van der Luyden offered...
1:09:48
...an old cottage
on his property nearby.

1:09:52
May accepted the offer
as a surprise for her husband.

1:09:56
She'd never seen the house,
but her cousin Ellen had mentioned it.

1:10:00
She had said it was
the only house in America...

1:10:04
...where she could imagine
being perfectly happy.

1:10:09
They traveled to the expected places,
which May had never seen.

1:10:13
In London, Archer ordered his clothes.
They went to the National Gallery...

1:10:18
...and to the theater.
1:10:20
I hope I don't look ridiculous.
I've never dined out in London.

1:10:25
English women dress like
everyone else in the evening.

1:10:28
How can you say that when they're
at the theater in old ball dresses?

1:10:33
Maybe they save their
new dresses for home.

1:10:37
- Then I shouldn't have worn this.
- You look very fine.

1:10:42
Really, quite beautiful.
1:10:51
In Paris, she ordered her clothes.
1:10:54
There were trunks of dresses
from Worth.

1:10:56
They visited the Tuileries.
