"It infuriates me to find myself overthrown here."
"You could not wish for a better place, my Pietro."
"What will you do?" said Buttons. "We must not waste time here. Can we go on?"
"How is that possible?"
"We might get a wheel at the next town."
"We could not find one if we hunted all through the three next towns."
"Curse your Italian towns!" cried Buttons, in a rage.
"Certainly, Signore, curse them if you desire."
"Where can we get this one repaired then?"
"At Civita Castellana, I hope."
