Madam de Merveilleux, provoked at his proposals, persuaded me not to accept them; her son was of the same opinion; something else was to be thought on, but no situation was procured.
Il n'y a pas dans le monde d'oiseaux si merveilleux. Il n'y a aucun roi du monde qui possede des oiseaux aussi merveilleux. Je suis sur que meme Cesar ne possede pas d'oiseaux aussi beaux. Eh bien! je vous donnerai cinquante de mes paons. Ils vous suivront partout, et au milieu d'eux vous serez comme la lune dans un grand nuage blanc . . . Je vous les donnerai tous.
I showed this scribble to Madam de Merveilleux, who, instead of discouraging me, as she ought to have done, laughed heartily at my sarcasms, as well as her son, who, I believe, did not like M. Godard; indeed, it must be confessed, he was a man not calculated to obtain affection.
"If you please . We have another of these so beautiful days, eh? This so glorious weather, these moonlight nights, this snow C'est merveilleux. Last night I sat myself for a long time in my window. Ah la nuit the moon past its full, say you not? the sea superbly dark, superbly blue, the wonderful white country! As I sat there, messieurs, a sight too beautiful greeted my eyes.
A white napkin was spread daintily upon a flat-topped rock, and on this were set a large pink and white cake and a box of fondants. "Goodness!" ejaculated Chris. "Merveilleux!" exclaimed the Frenchman. She turned upon him. "Now, Bertie, you needn't pretend you are not at the bottom of it, for I am old enough to know better.
The reports, and belief of those who are not in the secret, are out of all credibility. Lady Holland's second will, or codicil, will not be opened till the family returns to town. Everybody is inquisitive to know if you and Foley are safe. Il est merveilleux l'interet que tout le monde prend a tout ceci, aussi bien qu'au manage de notre Prince, dont je ne saurois pour dire des nouvelles.
"They work like men, these English young girls, is it not so?" said another. "Sapristi, c'est merveilleux." "One would truly say from the distance that they were men, but this one, when one sees her close, is not too bad!" said a third. "Passing remarks about you, they are, I should say," said McLaughlan to me as I fixed the spare wheel in place. "You wait," I panted, "I'll pay them out."
What he chiefly felt was his inadequacy for even gazing on the sight, much less for recording it, when he became aware that in the crowding of people to the edge of the terrace the stranger was standing near him. It was an opportunity not to be missed. "Ça, c'est merveilleux, n'est-ce pas, monsieur?" The words were banal, but they would serve to break the ice.
"I can," he said in a tone of finality, and without effort he calmly lifted his arm to its full height above his head. He held it there triumphantly for a moment while the whole company applauded and encouraged him. Coué reached for his hand and shook it. "My friend, you are cured." "C'est merveilleux," the man answered. "I believe I am." "Prove it," said Coué. "Hit me on the shoulder."
Madam de Merveilleux appeared to have been handsome; her hair was of a fine black, which, according to the old mode, she wore curled on the temples. She appeared satisfied with mine, and did all she could to render me service; but no one seconded her endeavors, and I was presently undeceived in the great interest they had seemed to take in my affairs.
