An able financier, with the support of a popular chamber and the assent of the sovereign, could have had no difficulty in restoring the public credit.
In the afternoon men went about washing clothes and hanging them out to dry in the unprosperous breeze with the meditative languor of disenchanted philosophers. Very little was said.
