ME: And nowadays, it's something different. HIM: My God, I should think so. ME AND NOWADAYS IT'S SOMETHING DIFFERENT HIM MY GOD I SHOULD THINK SO
I eased the blows a little, by shaking my head and saying, "Excuse me, madam, excuse me. Yes, that could go better, if the young lady wanted to, if she studied a little. But it's not going badly." The mother: "In your place, I'd keep her on the same piece for a year." "That's all right--she won't leave it until she has surmounted all the difficulties, and that won't take as long as madam thinks." The mother: "Mr. Rameau, you're flattering her. You're too kind. That's the only thing she'll remember from her lesson, and she'll know the right time to repeat it in front of me." The hour went by. My pupil gave me the small fee, with a graceful movement of her arm and the curtsy she had learned from her dancing master. I put it in my pocket, while the mother said, "Very good, mademoiselle. If Javillier were here, he'd applaud you." I kept chatting for a moment longer out of courtesy, then disappeared. There you have it--that's what people used to call a lesson in accompaniment in those days. YOU YOU'RE NOT PROGRESSING AT ALL THEN I EASED THE BLOWS A LITTLE BY SHAKING MY HEAD AND SAYING EXCUSE ME MADAM EXCUSE ME YES THAT COULD GO BETTER IF THE YOUNG LADY WANTED TO IF SHE STUDIED A LITTLE BUT IT'S NOT GOING BADLY THE MOTHER IN YOUR PLACE I'D KEEP HER ON THE SAME PIECE FOR A YEAR THAT'S ALL RIGHT SHE WON'T LEAVE IT UNTIL SHE HAS SURMOUNTED ALL THE DIFFICULTIES AND THAT WON'T TAKE AS LONG AS MADAM THINKS THE MOTHER MISTER RABAULT YOU ARE FLATTERING HER YOU'RE TOO KIND THAT'S THE ONLY THING SHE'LL REMEMBER FROM HER LESSON AND SHE'LL KNOW THE RIGHT TIME TO REPEAT IT IN FRONT OF ME THE HOUR WENT BY MY PUPIL GAVE ME THE SMALL FEE WITH A GRACEFUL MOVEMENT OF HER ARM AND THE COURTESY SHE HAD LEARNED FROM HER DANCING MASTER I PUT IT IN MY POCKET WHILE THE MOTHER SAID VERY GOOD MADEMOISELLE IF JAVILIER WERE HERE HE'D APPLAUD YOU I KEPT CHATTING FOR A MOMENT LONGER OUT OF COURTESY THEN DISAPPEARED THERE YOU HAVE IT THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE USED TO CALL A LESSON IN ACCOMPANIMENT IN THOSE DAYS
