Where hâve you been? what a

mess you are in!

Oh ! no, he went away in a moment.

He came to my house, but did not

mention anything.

He is in apprenticeship in London.

I hâve huit my finger with that

stone.

I should think so, we hâve walked

four leagues this morning.

Yes, I think 1 shall go for a walk

in the country.

Very well, I think; he puis by three

thousand francs a year, at least.

No, never, I hâve nothing to do with him, since he tried to take me in.

No, he sells them too dear, it is impossible to do business with him.

I did not do it on purpose, I wantèd

to pass, and she fell.

She suffers much since she has been

cutting her teeth.

No, he tries in vain, he prospers in

nothing, he is ouitediscouraged.

1 forgot to feed it, and it dicd from

hunger.

I am very sorry for it, but it cannot

be helped.

1 told you this morning it would

rain to day.

I don't see any reason why it could

not be done at once. ' That does not matter, I hope 1 shall

hâve better luck next time.

I shall get up presently. I am so very

tired !

At five o'clock , I must start by the

six o'clock train.

I like it very much, I begin to get

used to thccustoms of the country.

Pretty well ; his daughter has become

a governess and. his son intends to

be a notary.

It is true, but he is getting old.

At M' Jourdain's ; he turns out good

work.

He was obliged to go out on business,

and will only return next week.

1 hâve been amusing myself in pain-

ting my summer house; I am going

to wash now.
