"
Adele
,
"
I
inquired
,
"
with
whom
did
you
live
when
you
were
in
that
pretty
clean
town
you
spoke
of
?
"
842
"
I
lived
long
ago
with
mama
;
but
she
is
gone
to
the
Holy
Virgin
.
Mama
used
to
teach
me
to
dance
and
sing
,
and
to
say
verses
.
843
A
great
many
gentlemen
and
ladies
came
to
see
mama
,
and
I
used
to
dance
before
them
,
or
to
sit
on
their
knees
and
sing
to
them
:
I
liked
it
.
Shall
I
let
you
hear
me
sing
now
?

She
had
finished
her
breakfast
,
so
I
permitted
her
to
give
a
specimen
of
her
accomplishments
.
Descending
from
her
chair
,
she
came
and
placed
herself
on
my
knee
;
then
,
folding
her
little
hands
demurely
before
her
,
shaking
back
her
curls
and
lifting
her
eyes
to
the
ceiling
,
she
commenced
singing
a
song
from
some
opera
.
It
was
the
strain
of
a
forsaken
lady
,
who
,
after
bewailing
the
perfidy
of
her
lover
,
calls
pride
to
her
aid
;
desires
her
attendant
to
deck
her
in
her
brightest
jewels
and
richest
robes
,
and
resolves
to
meet
the
false
one
that
night
at
a
ball
,
and
prove
to
him
,
by
the
gaiety
of
her
demeanour
,
how
little
his
desertion
has
affected
her
.
845
The
subject
seemed
strangely
chosen
for
an
infant
singer
;
but
I
suppose
the
point
of
the
exhibition
lay
in
hearing
the
notes
of
love
and
jealousy
warbled
with
the
lisp
of
childhood
;
and
in
very
bad
taste
that
point
was
:
at
least
I
thought
so
.
846
Adele
sang
the
canzonette
tunefully
enough
,
and
with
the
naivete
of
her
age
.
This
achieved
,
she
jumped
from
my
knee
and
said
,
"
Now
,
Mademoiselle
,
I
will
repeat
you
some
poetry
.
"
847
Assuming
an
attitude
,
she
began
,
"
La
Ligue
des
Rats
:
fable
de
La
Fontaine
.

She
then
declaimed
the
little
piece
with
an
attention
to
punctuation
and
emphasis
,
a
flexibility
of
voice
and
an
appropriateness
of
gesture
,
very
unusual
indeed
at
her
age
,
and
which
proved
she
had
been
carefully
trained
.
849
"
Was
it
your
mama
who
taught
you
that
piece
?
"
I
asked
.
850
"
Yes
,
and
she
just
used
to
say
it
in
this
way
:
'
Qu
'
avez
vous
donc
?
lui
dit
un
de
ces
rats
;
parlez
!
'
She
made
me
lift
my
hand
--
so
--
to
remind
me
to
raise
my
voice
at
the
question
.
Now
shall
I
dance
for
you
?
