“Ah! I see something.—Where are we, my man?”

“I think we should do as well to return to Paris; it looks like a storm.”

“What’s the odds? then they’ll have the party in the house.”

“The party! Parbleu! we may be there by eleven o’clock!”

“We shall be there at ten; I must whip this infernal beast.”

“Oh! I am beginning to be resigned; I am going to make the best of it.”
