Just then he had only five dogs in the kennel, and two of them were quite young, though certainly old Bourreau counted for several, but after all, they could risk a battle against him and the other three, with the two couples of the custom-house officer, and they must profit by the occasion.
The Abbe laughed with great glee; and that very evening sent off to his Court a most ludicrous spicy description of the whole scene of meeting between this amiable father and child; in which he said that young Billings was the eleve favori of M. Kitch, Ecuyer, le bourreau de Londres, and which made the Duke's mistress laugh so much that she vowed that the Abbe should have a bishopric on his return: for, with such store of wisdom, look you, my son, was the world governed in those days.
I was in a very bad way, as you may guess, but I let down the glasses, and sat as still as a frightened mouse: once I diverted Harriet by crying out, "Ah, mon cher cocher, arretez;" like Madame de Barri's "Un moment, Monsieur le Bourreau." It never was so bad with us that we could not laugh.
The breaker had no time to go to the kennel to let out his pack, for Bourreau had been seized by the custom-house officer's four dogs.
"The town had to buy a new rope for everybody hanged, and present it to the bourreau, or compound with him in money: and she was not in his opinion worth this municipal expense, whereas decided characters like her late confederates, were."
"On a pour sa nuque Et son front vermeil Fait une perruque Avec le soleil. "Il règne, il végète Effroyant zéro; Sur lui se projette L'ombre du bourreau. "Son trône est une tombe, Et sur le pavé Quelque chose en tombe Qu'on n'a point lavé." But how to get the first line of the last stanza into five syllables I cannot think.
