Jean-Baptiste

But I don't want to make you cry more, p'tite. You're so little.

Angélique

I'm not very little. I'm bigger than Anne-Marie Dupont, and she's eight.

Jean-Baptiste

But no. She's not eight till next month. She told me.

Angélique

Oh, well—next month. Me, I want to hear about the brave 'Mericans. Did they make this ditch to stand in and shoot the wicked Germans?

Jean-Baptiste

They didn't make it, but they fought the wicked Germans in a brave, wonderful charge, the bravest sort, the grandfather said. And they took the ditch away from the wicked Germans, and then—maybe you'll cry.
