The bargains they had made along the route were now to be rehearsed, seasoned with a joke. "Allons, toi, on ne fait pas de la monnaie blanche comme ca!" "Je t'ai offert huit sous, tu sais, lapin!" "Farceur, va-t'en "
"What harm shall I do you? I'll halt when you halt, I'll go on when you go on. I'll be douce comme un lapin blanc I really can be, Mike." Her eyes asked him if in that respect she was not speaking the truth. "Yes," he said. "You can be anything you want to be." He sighed. "I wish you oftener wanted to be good, Millicent; I wish you oftener wanted to please me and not always only yourself."
In a famous picture by Titian, "La Vierge au Lapin," we have the rabbit. Certain women of the Old Testament are regarded as especial types of the Virgin. EVE. Mary is regarded as the second Eve, because, through her, came the promised Redemption. She bruised the head of the Serpent.
"And what of the Schoolmaster, this man so dangerous, so strong, and so ferocious, who was always with La Chouette? one of the old hands of the Lapin Blanc?" "The Schoolmaster?" said Bras-Rouge, feigning astonishment. "Yes, a galley-slave escaped from Rochefort, named Anselme Duresnel, condemned for life. He has disfigured himself so as not to be recognized. Have you no information of him?"
'Winifred veut tant faire le portrait de Bismarck-! Oh, mais toute la matinee-"We will do Bismarck this morning!"-Bismarck, Bismarck, toujours Bismarck! C'est un lapin, n'est-ce pas, mademoiselle?

But sometimes to vex me, the other children Master Harry among others used to translate them; and, though rabbit, and golden rabbit, sounded very well in English, I did not care to be called cabbage." "Did you like the young people you met in Paris, Jane?" asked Miss Wyllys.
She ceased her chatter, knitted her eyebrows, then raised them, opened her lips and with the vivacity of a Parisienne left her admirers to hurl herself like a torpedo upon our critic. "Tiens, tiens, Toutou! Mon lapin!" she cried, catching Padre Irene's arm and shaking it merrily, while the air rang with her silvery laugh. "Tut, tut!" objected Padre Irene, endeavoring to conceal himself.
Andrews caught the girl's eye and they both started laughing convulsively again. Andrews noticed how erect and supple she walked as his eyes followed her to the door. Andrews's party followed soon after. "We've got to hurry if we want to get to the Lapin Agile before closing...and I've got to have a drink," said Heineman, still talking in his stagey Shakespearean voice.
"Our first born," said Heineman with a wave of the hand. The streets were deserted. A thin ray of moonlight, bursting now and then through the heavy clouds, lit up low houses and roughly- cobbled streets and the flights of steps with rare dim lamps bracketed in house walls that led up to the Butte. There was a gendarme in front of the door of the Lapin Agile.
Ignorant, childishly fond of flowers and the open air of the country, she had made Rigolette's acquaintance, with hardly a deeper object than to have a companion in her jaunts.
