Has no one come, Rosa?
gpt
No, madame.

It is inconceivable! I wrote him to come at ten, and now it is eleven! He is always so eager, so prompt! I cannot understand it. If he had triumphed, I could conceive of his failing to keep an appointment; but so long as a man is not our conqueror, he is our slave. Can it be that Albert is not like other men?

Is it Monsieur Albert Vermoncey whom madame expects this evening?
human
To be sure.

And if Monsieur le Comte Dahlborne should come also?
human
Well! you will admit him.

Even if Monsieur Albert is here?
human
Mon Dieu! yes; how stupid you are!
