Oudarde and Gervaise rejoined her.
Perchance she is deaf," said Oudarde.
Oudarde replied,--"We call her Sister Gudule.
What do you call that woman?" she asked Oudarde.
Immediately," said Oudarde,"'tis a charity.
Did you see among the embassy,that big ambassador who is a hosier?" asked Oudarde.
Poor Chantefleurie!" said Oudarde, with a shiver,--"drowned!
Oudarde, a big and tender woman, would have been well pleased to sigh in company with Mahiette.
Then we must leave the cake on the window," said Oudarde;"some scamp will take it.
I just put it to you, Oudarde, the idea of placing the devil among the foundlings!
What!" demanded Mahiette,"that poor woman to whom we are carrying this cake?" Oudarde nodded affirmatively.
The singular point is," observed Oudarde,"that~la sachette~ has the same idea about the Egyptian woman.
Oudarde, in her turn, in a sweeter, more caressing voice,--"Sister!" said she,"Sister Sainte-Gudule!" The same silence; the same immobility.
Tis in truth, a frightful tale," said Oudarde,"and one which would make even a Burgundian weep.
And who is Sister Gudule?" persisted Mahiette."You are certainly ignorant ofall but your Reims, not to know that!" replied Oudarde.
I ask no better," said Oudarde with a sigh,"but I am waiting until it shall suit the good pleasure of M. Andry Musnier.
The recluse trembled all over, rose erect on her bare feet,and leaped at the window with eyes so glaring that Mahiette and Oudarde, and the other woman and the child recoiled even to the parapet of the quay.
Poor woman!" said Oudarde, with great compassion,"would you like a little fire?" She shook her head in token of refusal.
Their heads intercepted the feeble light in the cell, without the wretched being whom they thus deprived of it seeming to pay any attention to them."Donot let us trouble her," said Oudarde, in a low voice,"she is in her ecstasy; she is praying.
When you have children, Oudarde, you will find that there is nothing prettier than those little hands and feet.
Oudarde looked and beheld, in the corner where the eyes of the recluse were fixed in that sombre ecstasy, a tiny shoe of pink satin, embroidered with a thousand fanciful designs in gold and silver.
Ah, bah! what are you saying, Demoiselle Oudarde Musnier?" interposed the other Parisienne."There are two hours yet to the pillory.
That," replied Oudarde dryly,"does not prevent the Flemings having very fine horses, and having had a superb supper yesterday with monsieur, the provost of the merchants, at the Hôtel-de-Ville, where they were served with comfits and hippocras, and spices, and other singularities.
So true is it that they supped at the Hôtel-de-Ville," replied Oudarde but little affected by this catalogue,"that such a triumph of viands and comfits has never been seen.
I say, no!" Plump and worthy Oudarde was preparing to retort, and the quarrel might, perhaps, have proceeded to a pulling of caps, had not Mahiette suddenly exclaimed,--"Look at those people assembled yonder at the end of the bridge!
Again she shook her head, looked at Oudarde fixedly and replied,"Water." Oudarde persisted,--"No, sister, that is no beverage for January.
One moment, Gervaise!" said Oudarde, whose attention was less impatient."What would be left for the end if all were in the beginning?
