Dot Meess Norvell, she makes me mooch monies vile I shows her how to be an actress, oh, it vos yoost beautiful to see her act, und now you comes mit me also, und cares nottings for vot I bay you, und I can see you haf der actor genius. Mein Gott! it vos too goot to be true." Winston broke away gladly, and drifted back toward the cigar stand, where the mystified Tommy yet stood staring at him.
You must have the solemnity of the actors, as they Meess and Milor one another, and the perfect gravity and good faith with which the audience listen to them. Our stage Frenchman is the old Marquis, with sword, and pigtail, and spangled court coat.
"As strong!" said the Franco-Pole. "A woman that has been married is always more admired than a meess." "Sophie, might I ask you and Captain Clavering to be a little less personal?"

"Savez-vows qu'elle est furieusement belle, la fille du Reverend?" whispered His Highness to me. "I have made eyes at her during the sermon. They will be of pretty neighbours these meess!" and Paul looked unutterably roguish and victorious as he spoke.
