"Sans fin nous prodiguons calculs, efforts, travaux; Cependant, au milieu des succes, des bravos En nous quelque chose soupire; Multipliant nos pas et nos soins de fourmis, Nous vondrions nous faire une foule d'amis.... Pourtant un seul pouvait suffire.

Yet even now I seem to hear the actor Armand, just before 1830, talking thick behind his Directoire cravat, in TOM JONES: Point d'amis, point de grace, A la session prochaine il faudra qu'on y passe! and the whole house rose at him! I remember also being taken to the first night of Henri III., and being very much amused by the cups and balls and the pea-shooters.

But if you are going back to Paris I relinquish the Bois and offer myself as your companion." "And am I to be left alone to achieve a conquest, in which, if I succeed, I shall change into hate and envy the affection of my two best friends? Be it so.

"And am I to be left alone to achieve a conquest, in which, if I succeed, I shall change into hate and envy the affection of my two best friends? Be it so. " Un veritable amant ne connait point d'amis." "I do not comprehend your meaning," said the Marquis, with a compressed lip and a slight frown.

Suzette will be overjoyed at your coming.
