fils Camille (La Dame aux Camilias)

CHAPTER 5
9/11

But we have other poor girls here, just like her and just her age, and they are just thrown into a pauper's grave, and it breaks my heart when I hear their poor bodies drop into the earth.

And not a soul thinks about them any more, once they are dead! 'Tisn't a merry trade, ours, especially when we have a little heart left.

What do you expect?
I can't help it.

I have a fine, strapping girl myself; she's just twenty, and when a girl of that age comes here I think of her, and I don't care if it's a great lady or a vagabond, I can't help feeling it a bit.

But I am taking up your time, sir, with my tales, and it wasn't to hear them you came here.
