correctly speaking; it was noon; for I slept remarkably late that day…
I found myself still sitting there; in happy consciousness that my
former wish had been a foolish one。 I inquired for the Polytechnic
professor; but he had disappeared like the Greek and Roman gods;
from that time I have been the happiest man in the world。 I am a happy
director; for none of my company ever grumble; nor the public
either; for I always make them merry。 I can arrange my pieces just
as I please。 I choose out of every comedy what I like best; and no one
is offended。 Plays that are neglected now…a…days by the great public
were ran after thirty years ago; and listened to till the tears ran
down the cheeks of the audience。 These are the pieces I bring forward。
I place them before the little ones; who cry over them as papa and
mamma used to cry thirty years ago。 But I make them shorter; for the
youngsters don't like long speeches; and if they have anything
mournful; they like it to be over quickly。〃
