piment

Updated: May 1, 2025

"Que je ne beuvrai de piment, Devant un an, si je cy ment.* * That I will drink no spiced and honeyed wine for a year, if I am lying now. "'Tis moonlight, my charmer; see yonder through the window how the wind is tearing the clouds to tatters! Even thus will I do to your gorget. Wenches, wipe the children's noses and snuff the candles. Christ and Mahom! What am I eating here, Jupiter?

Victor Hugo - Notre-Dame De Paris
