Events the most momentous might culminate furiously about his head, but he never knew that anything had happened. "The Honourable George," I began, "was with you yesterday? Perhaps he ate something he shouldn't." "He did, he did; he done it repeatedly. He et pretty near as much of that sauerkraut and frankfurters as the piano guy himself did, and that's some tribute, believe me, Bill!
I could have cried, yes cried, for disappointment when I first wandered about Rome, with an invitation to dine at the German Embassy in my pocket, and three or four Berlin and Munich Vandals at my heels, telling me where the best beer and sauerkraut could be had, and what the last article by Grimm or Mommsen was about. Is this folly? Is it falsehood?
She was a German Fredechen we call 'er and she could make Sauerkraut eh bien, I moi qui vous parle une bonne Francaise I make myself sick with 'er Sauerkraut. Afterwards she grow too stout and marry ze proprietaire of what you call it? a public-'ouse 'Ze Crown and Garter' at some town where we stop a week. By now, I think she 'ave many children and a chin for each." Cosgrave laughed noisily.
Here you 've planted five hundred cabbages for winter just as if we were a sauerkraut factory and the probabilities are we shall go to town this winter " "Go where!" I cried. "And as for pigs, your head is as full of pigs as Deerfoot Farm or the Chicago stockyards Mullein Hill Sausages Made of Little Pigs that's really your dream" spelling out the advertisement with pea-pods on the porch floor.
In 1814, the young man obtained his liberty, his family, and his Germany, and it is to be hoped that he afterwards became a respectable pater-familias, a sort of Aulic councillor, and that, during the troublesome times in the land of Sauerkraut, he was before, and not behind, the barricades of his darling patria.
Mayors and aldermen swap stories and compliments over turtle and sherry, or over sauerkraut and Johannisberger; bands of students visit Oxford or Heidelberg, and there is a chorus of praise of Goethe from one side, of Shakespeare from the other; and all the while there is an unceasing antiphonal of grimaces and abuse in the press.
Within a day or two he was running about with the rest to beer-cellars and music-halls and dance-rooms, smoking bad tobacco, drinking poor beer, and eating sauerkraut and sausages as though he knew no better. This was easy. One can always descend the social ladder. The trouble came when he asked for the education he was promised.
Madame, avez-vous du vin? It isn't any use, Doctor take the witness." "Madame, avez-vous du vin du fromage pain pickled pigs' feet beurre des oeufs du boeuf horseradish, sauerkraut, hog and hominy anything, anything in the world that can stay a Christian stomach!" She said: "Bless you, why didn't you speak English before? I don't know anything about your plagued French!"
They still have plover's eggs early in the season at White's, and they still recognize the subtle distinction there between "port wine" and "port"; while in Weimar nobody, unless it be the duke, even boils his sauerkraut in white wine! One could easily write a chapter on Weimar and its self-satisfied social and literary activities.
Sausages, to be sure, have their place, and beer as well, but sauerkraut I have never been able to regard as an at all possible food for persons that really matter. Germans, to be sure! Discreetly I renewed my inquiry: "I dare say the Honourable George was in good form?" I suggested. "Well, he et a lot. Him and the piano guy was bragging which could eat the most sausages."
