AM I dead? If I were, could I pledge you in this wine?" "Was your name," I asked, quite bewildered, "was your name, pray, then, ever Blueb ?" "Hush! the waiter will overhear you. Methought we were speaking of Blanche de Bechamel. I loved her, young man. My pearls, and diamonds, and treasure, my wit, my wisdom, my passion, I flung them all into the child's lap. I was a fool.
As we progress, the exact difference between each will be explained. Béchamel.
"Are you of our fraternity? I see you are not. The secret which Mademoiselle de Bechamel confided to me in her mad triumph and wild hoyden spirits she was but a child, poor thing, poor thing, scarce fifteen but I love them young a folly not unusual with the old!" Go to! It is not good to love me, friend. They prosper not who do. I divine you. You need not say what you are thinking "
They listened together. His feet stopped. Turned. Went out of the diningroom. Down the passage to the bedroom. Stopped again. "Poor chap!" said the barmaid. "She's a wicked woman!" "Sssh!" said Stephen. After a pause Bechamel went back to the dining-room. They heard a chair creak under him. Interlude of conversational eyebrows. "I'm going up," said Stephen, "to break the melancholy news to him."
I may here remind the reader that when aspic or béchamel is used for masking or for pouring into a mould as lining, etc., it must not be made hot, only softened in a bowl set in warm water, just enough to be free from lumps. It must, of course, be stirred from the moment it begins to soften.
Béchamel is another sort of fine white stock, thickened with cream, there is more flavouring in this than the former, the stock is made of veal, with some of the smoked meats used in English kitchens, butter, mace, onion, mushrooms, bay leaf, nutmeg, and a little salt.

Try out a few slices of bacon in a frying-pan; remove the bacon. Roll the oysters in fine bread-crumbs and sauté until brown on both sides. Place on hot buttered toast; sprinkle with lemon-juice and garnish with olives. Chicken a la Bechamel. Clean and season a fat hen. Put a few slices of chopped bacon in a saucepan; let get hot.
Went into the yard, sir, got out the two bicycles, sir, and went off, sir about twenty minutes ago." Bechamel stood with his eyes round and his knuckle on his hips. Stephen, watching him with immense enjoyment, speculated whether this abandoned husband would weep or curse, or rush off at once in furious pursuit. But as yet he seemed merely stunned. "Brown clothes?" he said. "And fairish?"
We leave the wicked Bechamel clothing himself with cursing as with a garment, the wretched creature has already sufficiently sullied our modest but truthful pages, we leave the eager little group in the bar of the Vicuna Hotel, we leave all Bognor as we have left all Chichester and Midhurst and Haslemere and Guildford and Ripley and Putney, and follow this dear fool of a Hoopdriver of ours and his Young Lady in Grey out upon the moonlight road.
