As I am here, I must make the most of it. If I spend money, at all events it will be of some benefit to me.
gpt
Aren't we going to have any madeira?
human
I should say so! What do you take us for?
gpt
Yes, yes! madeira! cried Pigeonnier.
human
When I am in the vein, I don't deny myself anything.
gpt
Waiter! some madeira!
human
It is here, messieurs; what wine will you have next?
gpt
Beaune première, to begin with. After that, we will see.
human
That's right! said Tobie, gulping down the madeira.
gpt
Beaune première, the best there is! Is anything too good for us? Pass me the olives. Pass me the anchovies. Pass me the tunny.
human
The devil! you might as well say pass me everything! How little Tobie pitches in! Be careful, my dear fellow; it isn't prudent to have your stomach too full when you are going straight away to an assignation.
gpt
Oh! I have room enough. I'd like some madeira.
human
Monsieur has a full, round face, which doesn't indicate a very nervous man, said Dupétrain, looking at Tobie;
gpt
Dupétrain, cried Mouillot,
human
Oho! we're forbidden to speak now, are we?
gpt
Tell us something amusing--we would like that.--But you don't say anything, Albert! Have you an unrequited passion in your heart?
human
I, a passion! _Fichtre!_ no--but I---- By the way, waiter, I expect a messenger. Let me know when anyone asks for me.
gpt
The same with me,
human
And me, cried Tobie, stuffing a handful of olives into his pocket;
gpt
Do you propose to put all the olives in your pocket, Tobie?
human
I like them pocketed,[B] messieurs; they're much better.
gpt
Yes, laughed Célestin,
human
Ah! they are better pocketed, are they? said the artist.
gpt
Then I must try some.
