French to be more classy O beau pays de la Touraine that I
never even sang once explaining and rigmaroling about re-
ligion and persecution he wont let you enjoy anything
naturally then might he as a great favour the very 1st oppor-
tunity he got a chance in Brighton square running into my
bedroom pretending the ink got on his hands to wash it off
with the Albion milk and sulphur soap I used to use and the
gelatine still round it O I laughed myself sick at him that
day I better not make an alnight sitting on this affair they
ought to make chambers a natural size so that a woman
could sit on it properly he kneels down to do it I suppose
there isnt in all creation another man with the habits he has
look at the way hes sleeping at the foot of the bed how can
he without a hard bolster its well he doesnt kick or he might
knock out all my teeth breathing with his hand on his nose
like that Indian god he took me to show one wet Sunday in
the museum in Kildare street all yellow in a pinafore lying
on his side on his hand with his ten toes sticking out that he
said was a bigger religion than the jews and Our Lords both
put together all over Asia imitating him as hes always imi-
tating everybody I suppose he used to sleep at the foot of the
bed too with his big square feet up in his wifes mouth damn
this stinking thing anyway wheres this those napkins are ah
yes I know I hope the old press doesnt creak ah I knew it
would hes sleeping hard had a good time somewhere still
she must have given him great value for his money of course
he has to pay for it from her O this nuisance of a thing I
hope theyll have something better for us in the other world
tying ourselves up God help us thats all right for tonight
