"I would not check thy thirst, sweet friend; drink while I talk to thee. Thus it is: I would have thee know that I have taken a liking to thy craft and would fain have a taste of a beggar's life mine own self."

"John, John, what are you going to do?" the old man called after him in a supplicating voice. "You'll very soon see, I'll warrant you," and he banged the door behind him. The old man turned reproachfully towards Madame Langai.
