He shall take a lodging for us in one of the unfashionable quarters of Paris.

We will rough it, Grace (to use the slang phrase), merely for a change.

We will lead what they call a 'Bohemian life.' I know plenty of writers and painters and actors in Paris--the liveliest society in the world, my dear, until one gets tired of them.

We will dine at the restaurant, and go to the play, and drive about in shabby little hired carriages.

And when it begins to get monotonous (which it is only too sure to do!) we will spread our wings and fly to Italy, and cheat the winter in that way.
