“What does that mean?” asked Leon.

“Oh, but I didn’t get anything for my money,” said Gazonal. “What a woman! Well, I’ll own the provinces are not a match for Paris; I shall retire to La Trappe.”

“And of capital,” added Leon, holding out to Gazonal his notes of hand.
Gazonal gazed at the papers with a stupefied air.
“You can’t say now that we don’t understand the duties of hospitality; haven’t we educated you, saved you from poverty, feasted you, and amused you?” said Bixiou.
“And fooled you,” added Leon, making the gesture of gamins to express the action of picking pockets.
