ÉMILE. Oh, how hungry you must be!
JEAN JACQUES. The worst of it is that my dinner will not come here to find me. Twelve o'clock? it was just this time yesterday that we noticed where Montmorency is. Could we see where it is just as well from this forest?
ÉMILE. Yea; but yesterday we saw the forest, and we cannot see the town from this place.
JEAN JACQUES. That is a pity. I wonder if we could find out where it is without seeing it?
ÉMILE. Oh, my dear friend!
JEAN JACQUES. Did not we say that this forest is—
ÉMILE. North of Montmorency.
JEAN JACQUES. If that is true, Montmorency must be—
ÉMILE. South of the forest.
JEAN JACQUES. There is a way of finding out the north at noon.
