"Sign yourself Jean Fumée de l'Enfer." "Why not the scientific turn?" I asked. "Make it Professor John OxySulphuret, F.R.S. Foreigner Rastling for Selebrity." "My idear's Blue Blazes," put in Saunders bluntly. "Tank you, yentlemen," replied the genial Mynheer. "Mineself, I enyoy der yoke. Bot I am brout of my name.
The loveliest coat in the world "fumée de Londres," the salesman had called it, and in fact, it was the colour of the purple-grey smoke that ascends in solid spirals from factory chimneys. There were stripes too of silvery grey chenil which made a play-ground for lights and shadows.
I know your dislike of this city pleine de boue et de fumee; but I think that if you were to live there for any length of time you would feel more at home, apart from which we should be tolerably near each other, so that I might visit you frequently. Have you had any further news from Carlsruhe?
But by chance the last of the fallen nuts was empty, and had no nourishing pulp from which could have come another nut tree, had the gardener planted it. Has the man with the stick gained his wager? Judge." "The thing is clear enough," said Messire Adam Fumee, a Tourainian, who at that time was the keeper of the seals. "There is only one thing for the other to do."
"It is done, prince," said D'Harmental; "here are their letters;" and taking several from his pocket, he opened two or three by chance and read their contents. "Well, prince," cried Madame de Maine, "what do you think now? Besides these three letters, here is one from Lavauguyon, one from Bois-Davy, one from Fumée.
On the other side, St. Mesmin declares that the Franciscans have counterfeited the affair in hope of 'black-mailing' him. The king, therefore, appoints Fumee to inquire into the case. Thirteen friars are lying in prison in Paris, where they have long been 'in great wretchedness and poverty, and perishing of hunger, a pretty example of the law's delay.
Quel beau courage! son bateau est toujours des premiers!" "That shout is frightful! Do they close?" "On crie des deux parts, je crois. Le vieux capitaine est en avant a present, et Monsieur Blunt s'arrete!" "May Heaven avert the danger! Do you see the gentlemen at all, Mademoiselle?" "La fumee est trop epaisse. Ah! les viola! On tire encore de son bateau."
Chose usurpée legier est consommée, Comme argent vif qui retourne en fumée." From Lyons the captive duke was removed to Lys Saint-Georges in Berry, where he remained during the next four years in the charge of Gilbert Bertrand, the king's old captain of the guard. He was allowed to take exercise in the precincts of the castle and to fish in the moat.
He had his doctor, Adam Fumee, put in prison; persuaded himself that his son had wished, and was still wishing, to poison him; and refused to take any kind of nourishment. No representation, no solicitation, could win him from his depression and obstinacy. It was in vain that Charles, Duke of Berry, his favorite child, offered to first taste the food set before him.
On verra tout ce camp s'enfuir, Comme l'on voit s'évanouir; Une épaisse fumée; Comme la cire fond au feu, Ainsi des méchants devant Dieu, La force est consumée. L'Éternel est notre recours; Nous obtenons par son secours, Plus d'une déliverance. C'est Lui qui fut notre support, Et qui tient les clefs de la mort, Lui seul en sa puissance.
