. You there shall be a forester. . . . And you shall take a part in a play of four acts ; you will solve the whole social question Farewell, my friends, emotion strangles me. . . . How delightful it is here in your house. . . . Come my children. . . .
Yes, I am your dear little mother. . . . Who gave you that nasty, filthy thing? That disgusting little girl? Throw it away at once. It smells badly ! ' ''Meantime, the benefactors having left the house, the grandmother scuttles out of her alcove, ...they drink the Bordeaux wine, dance about and stuff themselves with the corned beef. Ha, ha, ha I what a lark ! What a mug she had, that old Brid- get ! Wretched little dwarfs I shoot the pasty. . . •" and so forth.
After this scene of comedy my father became serious again : " Irony preserves us from such follies as these. It teaches the benefactor that he must not put his title on his visiting cards and the virtuous man that he must hide himself away from virtue even more than from vice, and the pitiful soul that pity, if it is not discreet, is the greatest raiser of violences in the world.
