My little room with my books is my snuggery during the middle of the day, and at night I have also a large working table at one end of the big school- room, covered with books, papers, &c., and here I sit a good deal, my room being too small to hold the number of books that I require to have open for comparison of languages, and for working out grammatical puzzles.

Then you knew that you were in Monsieur le Maire's private snuggery?" "Perfectly." The constable lightly touched his hat with a respectful gesture. "You are very much in love," said he. "I say no more.
