fini-ni-ni

Updated: May 6, 2025

If my niece hadn't deserted me I could have made it. Now all that is past fini-ni-ni! The clan Berteuil has set the Faubourg against me. They've the power, too. It's all so intricate, so silent, such wheels within wheels but it's done. They've never wanted me. They don't want any of us not for ourselves. It's the sou! the sou! the everlasting sou! Noble or peasant it makes no difference.
