e wild fellows Who built the high house at which Heaven turn'd jealous�察�Making human audacity stumble and stammer When seized by the throat in the hard gripe of Grammar。 But the language of languages dearest to me Is that in which once�察�O ma toute cherie�察�When�察�together�察�we bent o'er your nosegay for hours�察�You explain'd what was silently said by the flowers�察�And�察�selecting the sweetest of all�察�sent a flame Through my heart�察�as�察�in laughing�察�you murmur'd Je t'aime。

The Italians have voices like peacocks�察�the Spanish Smell�察�I fancy�察�of garlic�察�the Swedish and Danish Have something too Runic�察�too rough and unshod�察�in Their accents for mouths not descended from Odin�察�German gives me a cold in the head�察�sets me wheezing And coughing�察�and Russian is nothing but sneezing�察�But�察�by Belus and Babel� �I never have heard�察�And I never shall hear ��I well know it���察�one word Of that delicate idiom of Paris without Feeling morally sure�察�beyond question or doubt�察�By the wild way in which my heart inwardly flutter'd That my heart's native tongue to my heart had been utter'd And whene'er I hear French spoken as I approve I feel myself quietly falling in love。
XIII。
Lord Alfred�察�on hearing the stranger�察�appeased By a something�察�an accent�察�a cadence�察�which pleased His ear with that pledge of good breeding which tells At once of the world in whose fellowship dwells The speaker that owns it�察�was glad to remark In the horseman a man one might meet after dark Without fear。 And thus�察�not disagreeably impress'd�察�As it seem'd�察�with each other�察�the two men abreast Rode on slowly a moment。
XIV。
STRANGER。
I see�察�Sir�察�you are A smoker。 Allow me��
ALFRED。
Pray take a cigar。
STRANGER。
Many thanks� � 。 。 Such cigars are a luxury here。 Do you go to Luchon��
ALFRED。
Yes�察�and you��
STRANGER。
Yes。 I fear�察�Since our road is the same�察�that our journey must be Somewhat closer than is our acquaintance。 You see How narrow the path is。 I'm tempted to ask Your permission to finish ��no difficult task�。� The cigar you have given me ��really a prize�。� In your company。
ALFRED。
Charm'd�察�Sir�察�to find your road lies In the way of my own inclinations� �Indeed The dream of your nation I find in this weed。 In the distant Savannahs a talisman grows That makes all men brothers that use it 。 。 。 who knows�拭�That blaze which erewhile from the Boulevart out´broke�察�It has ended where wisdom begins�察�Sir��in smoke。 Messieurs Lopez ��whatever your publicists write�� Have done more in their way human kind to unite�察�Perchance�察�than ten Prudhons。
STRANGER。
Yes。 Ah�察�what a scene��
ALFRED。
Humph� �Nature is here too pretentious。 Her mien Is too haughty。 One likes to be coax'd�察�not compell'd�察�To the notice such beauty resents if withheld。 She seems to be saying too plainly�察 �Admire me� ─�And I answer�察 �Yes�察�madam�察�I do�此�but you tire me。;
STRANGER。
That sunset�察�just now though 。 。 。
ALFRED。
A very old trick� �One would think that the sun by this time must be sick Of blushing at what�察�by this time�察�he must know Too well to be shocked bythis world。
STRANGER。
Ah�察�'tis so With us all。 'Tis the sinner that best knew the world At Twenty�察�whose lip is�察�at sixty�察�most curl'd With disdain of its follies。 You stay at Luchon��
ALFRED。
A day or two only。
STRANGER。
The season is done。
ALFRED。
Already��
STRANGER。
'Twas shorter this year than the last。 Folly soon wears her shoes out。 She dances so fast We are all of us tired。
ALFRED。
You know the place well��
STRANGER。
I have been there two seasons。
ALFRED。
Pray who is the Belle Of the Baths at this moment��
STRANGER。
The same who has been The belle of all places in which she is seen�察�The belle of all Paris last winter�察�last spring The belle of all Baden。
ALFRED。
An uncommon thing��
STRANGER。
Sir�察�an uncommon beauty� � 。 。 I rather should say An uncommon character。 Truly�察�each day One meets women whose beauty is equal to hers�察�But none with the charm of Lucile de Nevers。
ALFRED。
Madame de Nevers��
STRANGER。
Do you know her��
ALFRED。
I know Or�察�rather�察�I knew hera long time ago。 I almost forget 。 。 。
STRANGER。
What a wit� �what a grace In her language� �her movements� �what play in her face� �And yet what a sadness she seems to conceal��
ALFRED。
You speak like a lover。
STRANGER。
I speak as I feel�察�But not like a lover。 What interests me so In Lucile�察�at the same time forbids me�察�I know�察�To give to that interest�察�whate'er the sensation�察�The name we men give to an hour's admiration�察�A night's passing passion�察�an actress's eyes�察�A dancing girl's ankles�察�a fine lady's sighs。
ALFRED。
Yes�察�I quite comprehend。 But this sadnessthis shade Which you speak of�拭 � 。 。 it almost would make me afraid Your gay countrymen�察�Sir�察�less adroit must have grown�察�Since when�察�as a stripling�察�at Paris�察�I own I found in them terrible rivals��if yet They have all lack'd the skill to console this regret ��If regret be the word I should use���察�or fulfil This desire ��if desire be the word���察�which seems still To endure unappeased。 For I take it for granted�察�From all that you say�察�that the will was not wanted。
XV。
The stranger replied�察�not without irritation�此 �I have heard that an Englishmanone of your nation I presumeand if so�察�I must beg you�察�indeed�察�To excuse the contempt which I 。 。 。;
ALFRED。
Pray�察�Sir�察�proceed With your tale。 My compatriot�察�what was his crime��
STRANGER。
Oh�察�nothing� �His folly was not so sublime As to merit that term。 If I blamed him just now�察�It was not for the sin�察�but the silliness。
ALFRED。
How��
STRANGER。
I own I hate Botany。 Still�察 � 。 。 dmit�察�Although I myself have no passion for it�察�And do not understand�察�yet I cannot despise The cold man of science�察�who walks with his eyes All alert through a garden of flowers�察�and strips The lilies' gold tongues�察�and the roses' red lips�察�With a ruthless dissection�察�since he�察�I suppose�察�Has some purpose beyond the mere mischief he does。 But the stupid and mischievous boy�察�that uproots The exotics�察�and tramples the tender young shoots�察�For a boy's brutal pastime�察�and only because He knows no distinction 'twixt heartsease and haws�察�One would wish�察�for the sake of each nursling so nipp'd�察�To catch the young rascal and have him well whipp'd��
ALFRED。
Some compatriot of mine�察�do I then understand�察�With a cold Northern heart�察�and a rude English hand�察�Has injured your Rosebud of France��
STRANGER。
Sir�察�I know But little�察�or nothing。 Yet some faces show The last act of a tragedy in their regard�此�Though the first scenes
