Mouzon. You gave it away? You did something with it!
Etchepare. No—I didn't find it again.
Mouzon. You didn't find it again! The devil! That's not so good. Come! Let's think of something else. You didn't go up the mountain all alone?
Etchepare. Yes, all alone.
Mouzon. Bad luck! Another time, you see, you ought to take a companion. Were you out long?
Etchepare. All night. I got in at five in the morning.
Mouzon. A long time.
Etchepare. We aren't well off, and a horse is worth a lot of money.
Mouzon. Yes. But you didn't spend the whole night on the mountain without meeting someone—shepherds or customs officers?
