lorsqu'il lui adressait la parole, when he addressed her

11. elle aimait un peu trop qu'on rendit hommage à sa beauté, she was rather toc fond of being admired for her beauty. (Mark the Subjunctive Mood after aimait, which hère expresses désire ; and notice also that, since that verb is in the Imperfect, it governs the next verb in the Imperfect Subjunctive, qu'on rendît. Notice the Indefinite Pronoun on rendered hère by the English Passive voice.) sans le vouloir, unwillingly.
