"Take, also, all that belongs to your daughter. You are very rich?"
"Very rich."
"Do these things belong to Monsieur, your son?"
"Monsieur is not my son; he is a German. Since I am English how could I have a German son?"
"That is true. Have you twenty thousand francs income?"
"More."
"A carpet for these ladies! Are you rich enough to have thirty thousand francs income?"
"We have more than that."
"Sophocles is a villain whom I shall chastise. Logothète, tell them to prepare dinner for these ladies. May it be possible, Madame, that you are a millionaire?"
"I am that."
