Mathilde suffered ceaselessly, feeling herself born to enjoy all delicacies and all luxuries. she was distressed at the poverty of her dwelling, at the bareness of the walls, at the shabby chairs, the ugliness of the curtains. all those things, of which another woman of her rank would never even have been conscious, tortured her and made her angry. the sight of the little breton peasant who did her humble housework aroused in her despairing regrets and bewildering dreams. she thought of silent antechambers hung with oriental tapestry, illumined by tall bronze candelabra, and of two great footmen in knee breeches who sleep in the big armchairs, made drowsy by the oppressive heat of the stove. she thought of long reception halls hung with ancient silk, of the dainty cabinets containing priceless curiosities and of the little coquettish perfumed reception rooms made for chatting at five o’clock with intimate friends, with men famous and sought after, whom all women envy and whose attention they all desire. which statement best summarizes how mathilde is characterized in this passage? mathilde is content with her position in life at this time. mathilde has always been perfectly at ease in her luxurious life. mathilde lived in poverty but felt she ought to live in luxury. mathilde fought for the rights of the poor.
