All of them. Like flowers. They like flowers.
Scene III.
It is an occasion.
When you see a Hussar.
A Zouave.
A soldier
An antiquary.
Perhaps it is another.
We were surprised with the history of Marguerite's father and
step-father and the American Civil War.

Their storks are their statuettes.

We were astonished.
And potatoes
Potatoes are eaten dry.
This reminds me of another thing I said. A woman likes to use money.
And if not.
