What particularly rouses them is the heroine's love affairs. They could listen to them all day. WHAT PARTICULARLY AROUSES THEM IS THE HEROINE'S LOVE AFFAIRS THEY COULD LISTEN TO THEM ALL DAY
asants' smile in this world--nothing so perfectly inane, so calmly imbecile. They are so happy. They don't look it, but we know they are because they say so. If you don't believe them, they dance three steps to the right and three steps to the left back again. They can't help it. It is because they are so happy. When they are more than usually rollicking they stand in a semicircle, with their hands on each other's shoulders, and sway from side to side, trying to make themselves sick. But this is only when they are simply bursting with joy. Stage peasants never have any work to do. Sometimes we see them going to work, sometimes coming home from work, but nobody has ever seen them actually at work. They could not afford to work--it would spoil their clothes. They are very sympathetic, are stage peasants. They never seem to have any affairs of their own to think about, but they make up for this by taking a three-hundred-horse-power interest in things in which they have no earthly concern. SMILE THERE IS NOTHING LIKE THE STAGE PEASANTS SMILE IN THIS WORLD NOTHING SO PERFECTLY INANE SO CALMLY IMBECILE THEY ARE SO HAPPY THEY DON'T LOOK IT BUT WE KNOW THEY ARE HAPPY BECAUSE THEY SAY SO IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE THEM THEY DANCE THREE STEPS TO THE RIGHT AND THREE STEPS TO LEFT BACK AGAIN AND THEY CAN'T HELP IT BECAUSE THEY ARE SO HAPPY WHEN THEY ARE MORE THAN USUALLY ROLLICKING THEY STAND IN A SEMICIRCLE WITH THEIR HANDS ON EACH OTHERS SHOULDERS AND SWAY FROM SIDE TO SIDE TRYING TO MAKE THEMSELVES SICK BUT THIS IS ONLY WHEN THEY ARE SIMPLY BURSTING WITH JOY STAGE PEASANTS NEVER HAVE ANY WORK TO DO SOMETIMES WE SEE THEM GOING TO WORK SOMETIMES COMING HOME FROM WORK BUT NOBODY HAS EVER ACTUALLY SEEN THEM AT WORK THEY COULD NOT FALL TO WORK IT WOULD SPOIL THEIR CLOTHES THEY ARE SYMPATHETIC ARE STAGE PEASANTS THEY NEVER SEEM TO HAVE AFFAIRS OF THEIR OWN TO THINK ABOUT BUT THEY MAKE UP FOR THIS BY TAKING A THREE HUNDRED HORSE BOW INTEREST IN THINGS IN WHICH THEY HAVE NO EARTHLY CONCERN
