But get us a bottle of wine, some eggs, and a frying-pan. By Jove, I am a capital hand at an omelet!" The serrurier nodded again, grinned, and withdrew. "Rest here," said Birnie, in his calm, passionless voice, that seemed to Morton, however, to assume an unwonted tone of command. "I will go and make the best bargain I can for our furniture, buy fresh clothes, and engage our places for Tours."
