"I don't know," said Josephine doggedly. Her eyes never left the ground. "We could not let him die for want of care." "He will not thank us. Better for him to die than live. Better for me." At this instant Dard came running down. "Good news, mesdemoiselles, good news! the wound runs all along; it is not deep, like mine was. He has opened his eyes and shut them again.
"Accept'!" they cried, "that beautiful true story of 'The 'Oly Crozz' is accept'! Mesdemoiselles they have strug the oil!" Mme. Castanado had a further conviction: "'Tis the name of it done that! They coul'n' rif-use that name! and even notwithstanding that those publisher' they are maybe Protestant!" The good nights were very happy.
"They would be very difficult to please," replied Raoul, faithful to his regular system of gallantry. "Thank you, Monsieur le Vicomte. We were saying, then, that the king is coming to Blois?" "With all the court." "Mesdemoiselles de Mancini, will they be with them?" "No, certainly not." "But as the king, it is said, cannot do without Mademoiselle Mary?"
"Mais, monsieur je ne sais pas suivre vous allez si vite." "Je n'ai rien compris, moi!" Here a general murmur arose, and the teacher, opening her lips for the first time, ejaculated "Silence, mesdemoiselles!" No silence followed on the contrary, the three ladies in front began to talk more loudly. "C'est si difficile, l'Anglais!" "Je deteste la dictee."
Bad weather, Monsieur Philomène, for the voice!" Then, to the two girls: "Mesdemoiselles Achille Dorinet prostrates himself at the feet of youth, beauty, and talent! Mademoiselle Honoria, I salute in you the future Empress of the tragic stage.
Being cast upon the ledge, the first care of our gallantry was to look after the ladies, who were scared and astonished by the naked savage brutes, who were shouldering the poor things to and fro; and bearing them through these and a dark archway, we came into a street crammed with donkeys and their packs and drivers, and towering camels with leering eyes looking into the second-floor rooms, and huge splay feet, through which mesdames et mesdemoiselles were to be conducted.
How could God love me, a poor, forlorn, useless old woman, who never loved Him, nor served Him. You come back again. Perhaps I'll end up by understanding better. And now, good-bye, mesdemoiselles. I have delayed you both too long." We shook hands with her. Oh, what a cold hand it was! The touch of it sent a shiver through me!
"Here, Leah," continued Bertha, laughing, and winking her roguish eyes at Lizzie, "how much do you know of the verb aimer?" "More than I wish I did," was the laconic reply of the beautiful Jewess. "I suppose so, judging from what I saw on last Saturday evening. But here we are at the lion's den, and our levity had better subside." "Bon jour, madame!" "Bon jour, mesdemoiselles."
Maurice let his mother praise him for a few moments, looking at her with a pleasant smile which became a trifle saddened. Finally he interrupted her: "It is granted, mamma, that I am a perfect phoenix," and he gayly embraced her. At this moment the pretty maid announced, "Monsieur and Mesdemoiselles Lantz," and Madame Roger arose hastily to receive the newcomers.
But madame and mesdemoiselles have every possible tribute paid to their charms: their beauty, their wit, their dash and sparkle, their independence, receive as large a share of admiration as the most insatiable among them could desire. It must be owned that the American spirit, tempered by European education or influences, makes a very delightful compound.
