This was the substance: He of courseadored her; and wished to share with her a large fortune of whichhe was already in possession, without counting what he was toinherit at his father's death. She should be sole mistress ofhis heart and fortune; and as an immediate token of hisliberality, he was ready at once to supply her with an equipage, a furnished house, a lady's maid, three footmen, and a man-cook.
"`There is indeed a son, ' said I, `very different from his father!But tell me truly, now, ...does not such an offer tempt you?'`Me!' she replied, adapting to the idea two verses from Racine-- Moi! vous me soupconnez de cette perfidie? Moi! je pourrais souffrir un visage odieux, Qui rappelle toujours l'Hopital a mes yeux?
`No I' replied I, continuing the parody-- J'aurais peine a penser que l'Hopital, madame, Fut un trait dont l'amour l'eut grave dans votre ame.
`But it assuredly is a temptation--a furnished house, a lady'smaid, a cook, a carriage, and three servants--gallantry can offerbut few more seductive temptations.
