Excerpt from Kings in Exile, Vol. 2 of 2: To Which Is Added, Scenes and Fancies
IT the end of an amicable meal in the parlour of the second-hand establishment in the Rue Eginhard. Old Leemans when he is alone munches his crust at the kitchen table, Opposite to the Damet, without cloth or napkin; but when he has company the careful housekeeper takes off, grumbling, the white covers to the furniture, hides away the little mats before the chairs, and sets the table before the portrait of monsieur, in the neat and peaceful salon, worthy of a priest, which is for several hours delivered over to smells of fry and garlic, and to discussions, highly seasoned also, in the argot of low money-dealing.
