  2        1|       became a farce and the army a thing of folly. When Jupiter,
  3        1|         play would not be quite the thing. La Faloise was the last
  4        1|       quarters.~“It’s an understood thing, eh? We are to go to her
  5        1|         introduce you. You know the thing’s quite between ourselves—
  6        2|       herself along with the little thing. Good God, as though that
  7        2|         that was too much of a good thing; that had never proved fallacious.
  8        2|        beautiful eyes.”~“That’s the thing: ‘a thousand kisses on thy
  9        2|          shook her head; she knew a thing or two. But once more she
 10        2|          they glory in that sort of thing.”~Nevertheless, she assumed
 11        3|            Why, you don’t believe a thing yourself,” said Leonide,
 12        3|             charmingly epigrammatic thing in my presence.”~La Faloise
 13        3|        pretty sly about it, for the thing never gets about—nobody
 14        3|          made his wife! Poor little thing, how he must have bored
 15        3|              She had no lovers: the thing was only too apparent. One
 16        3|                Yes, it’s a terrible thing,” murmured the countess,
 17        3|             struck him as being the thing. But after all is said and
 18        4|        struck her as being more the thing. She wanted to celebrate
 19        4|       newcomers. Nay, this time the thing was becoming ridiculous;
 20        4|         beard. The most astonishing thing about it was that nobody
 21        4|         wealthy, in fact, quite the thing. And as to the ladies, they
 22        4|       peccadillo. But this time the thing’s going to fail. Nana doesn’
 23        4|             course I sent the whole thing back again, but I must say
 24        5|           indifferent. That sort of thing no longer interested him
 25        5|         Clarisse, after viewing the thing in every light, found she
 26        5|           occasionally said a risky thing among friends. “The count
 27        5|          hat just when the devilish thing was going to bound onto
 28        5|             don’t like this sort of thing. You, Mignon, you’ll do
 29        5|             out:~“Oh, the dirty old thing! Just you bloody well leave
 30        6|             drawing room, quite the thing, the drawing room, with
 31        6|          was vexed. The great silly thing to go sloping off from Mamma’
 32        6|        women you guess that sort of thing at once!”~Steiner shrugged
 33        6|            shooting up! This little thing was becoming extremely plump!
 34        7|             foolish. It was a great thing gained, forsooth, to be
 35        7|     anything because there’s such a thing as modesty, you know, but
 36        7|            and like a good–tempered thing, she made fun of herself
 37        7|          one and then another black thing followed quickly after it,
 38        7|            The window seemed a dead thing, and now and then he asked
 39        7|           rather too much of a good thing. But she defended her, nonetheless:
 40        8|             together, but the whole thing had come about suddenly
 41        8|           with him! Oh, the canting thing! It’s learned some pretty
 42        8|            could not understand the thing as yet. Nevertheless, she
 43        8|         thirty sous. And to think a thing like that got hold of important
 44        8|          together three months. The thing’s impossible.”~He rushed
 45        8|           chewing solemnly, for the thing struck him as being quite
 46        8|        water. Salt water’s the very thing for those little knocks.
 47        8|           common! Don’t deny it—the thing’s obvious! I don’t speak
 48        8|         that when one didn’t like a thing there was no reason why
 49        8|            matter, “there’s no such thing as virtue left, is there?”~
 50        8|             wounded, did a cowardly thing.~“Very well, do as you like!”
 51        8|            you and me, my dear, the thing’s getting stupid. One can
 52        8| Nevertheless, she was struck by one thing: Labordette had given her
 53        8|             seeing what a good tame thing she had become, ended by
 54        9|             swore.~“Always the same thing, by God! It’s all very well
 55        9|            of Geraldine, what d’you thing of it?” continued Labordette.~
 56        9|          you a bit, seeing that the thing’s impossible. Good God,
 57        9|           in front of you? Why, the thing’s in my blood! Besides,
 58        9|           rather too much of a good thing. So she only smiled a queer
 59        9|            pin about it. That great thing Nana playing the duchess
 60        9|            that right? Was this the thing? Apparently he was only
 61        9|            the manager, putting the thing back on a shelf. “If one
 62       10|     visitors in the hall. The whole thing was princely in the correctness
 63       10|         ruin and thought it a great thing to leave the last golden
 64       10|           Besides, dear boy, if the thing doesn’t suit you it’s very
 65       10|            muttered, “it’s the best thing I could possibly do after
 66       10|           as a lath, is that little thing, but since it suits your
 67       10|             agreeable: I’ll run the thing through for you.”~Then with
 68       10|           Oh, what bosh that stupid thing money was! It was made for
 69       10|      indignant, declaring the whole thing to be untrue and expressing
 70       10|       matter, he averred; the great thing was to die handsomely. For
 71       10|            grew inflexible. No, the thing was out of the question!
 72       11|             It’s too much of a good thing; he’ll get into the clutches
 73       11|           races for the love of the thing, as became a frantic gambler
 74       11|         finish.~“But he’s quite the thing!” declared Nana in perfect
 75       11|             my darling?”~The little thing silently allowed his hands
 76       11|               Go in for the regular thing, please! But now that I
 77       11|          didn’t desire that kind of thing at all. I had her educated
 78       11|    shoulders. After all, wasn’t the thing permissible? An owner was
 79       11|           men are obstinate about a thing, so much the worse for them!”~“
 80       12|            but on this occasion the thing was utterly idiotic, as
 81       12|             conceal her plight. The thing struck her as a ridiculous
 82       12|        burst into exclamations. The thing was impossible! It must
 83       12|             about it; the important thing now was for her to rest.
 84       12|             has abused every mortal thing and now finds nothing worth
 85       12|            I believe the dear young thing to be incapable of willing
 86       12|           vagabond rhythm.~“But the thing’s going on wheels!” said
 87       12|         with a desire to laugh. The thing struck him as comic.~“Aha,
 88       13|          anything. All that sort of thing’s made to be broken. Now
 89       13|         mistress. She was quite the thing, whatever they might say!
 90       13|             brother.”~Gracious! The thing was too funny! And she let
 91       13|            properly; it was the one thing still lacking. In two months
 92       13|          fear of crushing some live thing, some naked limb lying on
 93       13|           calves for the fun of the thing. Then, getting up again:~“
 94       13|      wallowing a shameful, decrepit thing, a comic and lamentable
 95       13|          though he were some filthy thing she could not show anyone.~
 96       13|          had enough of this sort of thing. Ta ta!”~Muffat remained
 97       13|          stumbling block. The whole thing was conducted according
 98       13|            sentence she smiled. The thing was impossible, she said,
 99       13|            yet he thought he knew a thing or two. Amid the downfall
100       13|            Nana; punish the beastly thing! Oh, I’ve got a broad back!
101       14|           not please her; the whole thing was the caprice of a woman
102       14|         aunt’s—you remember the old thing. Well, and then she finds
103       14|          would have done any mortal thing for the girls. But as the
104       14|             lamp was not the proper thing and that a taper should
