I take credit to myself for not believing in such honour." Cazalès himself arose indignantly. "I could not listen tamely to such calumniating language," he exclaimed. I have listened to the previous speaker, because I am, and I assert it, a partisan of the most unlimited declaration of opinions; but it is beyond human endurance for me to conceal the contempt I feel for such diatribes.
