Are you wounded, monsieur le comte?
gpt
Yes--in the arm--the shoulder, I believe. Oh! it's a trifle. I don't see why we should go any further. But you are a fine young fellow, and I consider it my duty to tell you what Madame Baldimer whispered to me last night when she left us.
human
Ah! she said something to you, did she? And to me, too.
gpt
She whispered these words in my ear: 'This young man is constantly at my heels; find some way to rid me of his presence.'
human
I give you my word of honor that she said that to me,
gpt
I believe you, especially as she said to me, speaking of you: 'That man is insufferable to me; try to rid me of him.'

She's a woman who isn't worth having two respectable men fight for her. I abandon the field to you, monsieur; I shall go no more to her house.
gpt
Oh! my love has vanished, monsieur le comte; I mean to go there once more, simply to bid her farewell and tell her that I am no longer her dupe; then I shall never see her again.
