I'd hear people whispering beside me, "It's a valet in disguise, one of those belonging to the man who sleeps with her. Won't the rascal ever shut up?" People have no idea what could make a person do that. They think it's stupidity; whereas it comes from a motive that excuses everything. I'D HEAR PEOPLE WHISPERING BESIDE ME IT'S A VALET IN DISGUISE ONE OF THOSE BELONGING TO THE MAN WHO SLEEPS WITH HER WON'T THE RASCAL EVER SHUT UP PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT COULD MAKE A PERSON DO THAT THEY THINK IT STUPIDITY WHEREAS IT COMES FROM A MOTIVE THAT EXCUSES EVERYTHING
moiselle Dangeville? Do you know her by any chance?" "Yes, a little. But it's not her." "Then who?" I'd say her name in a low voice. "Her!" "Yes, her," I'd repeat, somewhat ashamed, for there are times I feel a sense of modesty, and when I repeated the name you should've seen the poet make a long face or at other times blow up in a temper right in front of me. However, for better or worse I had to bring my man to dinner--and he didn't want to get involved. He'd stall and offer his thanks. You should've seen how I was treated if I didn't succeed in my negotiations with him: I was a lout, a fool, an oaf. I was good for nothing. I wasn't worth the glass of water they'd given me to drink. But it was even worse if she got the part--then I had to go fearlessly through the midst of the booing public (and they're good judges, no matter what people say about them) and make my applause heard as a one-man claque. I attracted people's attention and sometimes stole the booing away from the actress. RACE CHARM AND DELICACY YOU MEAN MADEMOISELLE DEIGNVILLE DO YOU KNOW HER BY ANY CHANCE YES A LITTLE BUT IT'S NOT HER THEN WHO I TO SAY HER NAME IN A LOW VOICE HER YES HER I'D REPEAT SOMEWHAT ASHAMED FOR THERE ARE TIMES I FEEL A SENSE OF MODESTY AND WHEN I REPEATED THE NAME YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN THE POET MAKE A LONG FACE OR AT OTHER TIMES BLOW UP IN A TEMPER RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME HOWEVER FOR BETTER OR WORSE I HAD TO BRING MY MAN TO DINNER AND HE DIDN'T WANT TO GET INVOLVED HE'D STALL AND OFFER HIS THANKS YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN HOW I WAS TREATED IF I DIDN'T SUCCEED IN MY NEGOTIATIONS WITH HIM I WAS ALLOWED A FOOL AN OATH I WAS GOOD FOR NOTHING I WASN'T WORTH A GLASS OF WATER THEY'D GIVEN ME TO DRINK BUT IT WAS EVEN WORSE IF SHE GOT THE PART THEN I HAD TO GO FEARLESSLY THROUGH THE MIDST OF THE BOOING PUBLIC AND THEIR GOOD JUDGES NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT THEM AND MAKE MY APPLAUSE HEARD AS A ONE MAN CLACK I ATTRACTED PEOPLE'S ATTENTION AND SOMETIMES STOLE THE BOOING AWAY FROM THE ACTRESS
