and being snubbed on all occasions to his heart's content. He
constantly said to himself; in self-rebuke, _Vous Vavez voulu, vous
Vavez voulu, George Dandin!_ ("You have no one to blame but yourself!
you brought it on yourself, George Dandin!")

Vous l'avez voulu, vous l'avez voulu, George
Dandin! vous l'avez voulu!... vous avez juste-ment

Dandin_, i. 9 (1668).

"Well, _tu l'as voulu_, George Dandin," she said,
with a smile, "you were determined on it, and
