Pendant toute la soirée on a
porté des santés aux amis absents.
Je lui ai déjà fait plusieurs remontrances, mais il ne fait aucune attention à mes paroles.
Il ne fait que de sortir, je suis surpris que vous ne l'ayez pas rencontre.
Il est en effet bien malheureux, mais il ne s'est jamais mis en peine de l'avenir.
Je réponds de lui, il a trop souffert pour ne pas se corriger.
Il ne nie pas que je ne lui aie rendu de grands services, mais malgré cela, il n'est pas reconnaissant.
Vous lui direz que je n'ai que faire de lui.
Non, ne faites mention de rien.
Que voulez-vois que j'y fasse? Il veut
toujours faire à sa tête.
Du tout, Monsieur, nous ne faisons
que d'arriver nous-mêmes.
Je n'y manquerai pas, Madame.
Non, qu'y avez-vous donc fait faire ?
En effet, il vous manquait de la place;
vous avez à présent une habitation
très-commode.
Ils font très-bien, et cachent en
même temps les écuries.
Je ne l'ai pas vu ce matin.
Oui, mais je ne lui ai pas donné tous les détails, parce que j'avais peur de lui faire au chagrin.
Qu'est-ce que cela lui fait? C'est moi qui cours tout le risque en cas de non-réussite.
C'est vrai, il est fait aux insultes, rien n'a de l'effet sur lui.
Oui, et la plupart portent bateau.
A votre place je ne me risquerais pas, il n'y a pas longtemps qu'il gèle.
Il s'est blessé, et le médecin lui a ordonné de le porter en écharpe.
En effet, il est bien récompensé de sa bienveillance.
C'était une belle réunion et tout le monde s'est bien amusé.
iiO.
What distance do you think Not very far, fifty mètres at the most.
thisgun carries?
Tbis wine is too strong, it gets
into my bead.
If you are not used to it, I shonld not advise you to take much of it.
I did not know he was in mou rn-
ing.
That tree bears well.
How is your family ?
I hâve a decayed tooth which makes me suffer much.
I am afraid your brother is too lenient with bis debtors.
I am sorry to hear of the accident which has befallen your cousin.
Look, the rain has spoiled my bat.
I hâve a mind to take a season ticket at the théâtre.
As soon as they are brought together, they will make it up.
Ali he says is of no avail.
As your présence was required at the council. you ought not to bave been absent.
I am angry with him because he abused ail my kindness.
He is now overwhelmed with grief and poverty.
He is not particular, he puts up with whatever is given to him.
He who knows how to submit to circumstances is happier than he who always complains of them.
How are your two partners getting on?
Don't lean on that small table, you might break it.
How much did you give for that horse ?
Since he has become rich, he has assumed airs of importance.
Oh ! yes for his aunt who died three
months ago.
Almost every year it is loadedwith
fruit.
I thank you, Sir, they are ail quite
well.
If I were you, I should have it stop-
ped or puiled out.
So am I, they might easily take ad-
vantage of il to fleece him.
His horse fell under him, and in falling he put his arm out of joint.
I told you to take an umbrella.
I cannot, I have too little time to go
often.
I don't doubt it at ail, they are too
well disposed to bear malice.
No, indeed ail his arguments are
devoid of good sensé.
I am well aware of that, but there is
no doing impossibilities, I was fifty
leagues from home.
I confess he acted wrongly, Dut if I
were in your place, I should for-
give him this time.
It serves him right, he has always
laughed at ail the good adviee
which was given to him.
It is true, he never finds fault with
anything whatever.
You are right, but there are very ferw persons who are able to follow that precept.
They do not agrée at ail, I am afraid they will be compelled to dissolve partnership.
Tou arc right, it does not seem very strong.
I gave two thousand francs for it.
True, I met him the other day, and he did not deign to speak to me.
