MONSIEUR BERNARD

FEVRIER 1637.
9
A heavy rifled gun.
10
“A battle terminated, a day finished, false measures repaired, greater successes assured for the morrow, – all was lost by a moment of panic, terror.” – Napoleon, Dictées de Sainte Hélène.
11
Five winning numbers in a lottery
12

14
This is the factory of Goblet Junior: Come choose your jugs and crocks, Flower-pots, pipes, bricks. The Heart sells Diamonds to every comer.
15
On the boughs hang three bodies of unequal merits: Dismas and Gesmas, between is the divine power. Dismas seeks the heights, Gesmas, unhappy man, the lowest regions; the highest power will preserve us and our effects. If you repeat this verse, you will not lose your things by theft.

22
Suspendu, suspended; pendu, hung.
23
L’Aile, wing.
24
The slang term for a painter’s assistant.
25
If Cæsar had given me glory and war, and I were obliged to quit my mother’s love, I would say to great Cæsar, “Take back thy sceptre and thy chariot; I prefer the love of my mother.”
26
Whether the sun shines brightly or dim, the bear returns to his cave.
27
The peep-hole is a Judas in French. Hence the half-punning allusion.
28
Our love has lasted a whole week, but how short are the instants of happiness! To adore each other for eight days was hardly worth the while! The time of love should last forever.
