"I have what you want."
"Is it possible? An estate?"
"Better than that—a small château."
"A château?—You are a delightful man!"
"With towers, too, and battlements."
"Battlements!—Allow me to embrace you!"
"And moats—they are dry, to be sure."
"I will have them filled with water."
"Plenty of rooms, many guest chambers, stable for twenty horses."
"I will stable asses there."
