"It is not the first time madame has done that trick," he remarked under his hand, as she crossed the courtyard to regain her chair. "She is Normande," I declared, "I am certain of it by the way she said 'Eh ben! And did you not notice her walk back to her table?
It is "Allez," rather than "Allons;" yet even so, become now the voice of the distant motherland, it carries with it the shade of reverence, as well as of affection, which patriotism exacts.
"Bien! bien!" interrupted I for all this chatter and circumlocution began to bore me very much; "I will consult M. Pelet, and the thing shall be settled as you desire. Good evening, mesdames I am infinitely obliged to you." "Comment! vous vous en allez deja?" exclaimed Madame Pelet.
