Klupssel had furnished a lodging for a little girl, who, notwithstanding this, was at the service of anybody, because he could not support her entirely himself.

One evening as we were going into the coffee-house, we met him coming out to go and sup with her.

We rallied him; he revenged himself gallantly, by inviting us to the same supper, and there rallying us in our turn.

The poor young creature appeared to be of a good disposition, mild and little fitted to the way of life to which an old hag she had with her, prepared her in the best manner she could.

Wine and conversation enlivened us to such a degree that we forgot ourselves.
