The Works of Alphonse Daudet, Vol. 2 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Works of Alphonse Daudet, Vol. 2
Your standard? Said the terrible thinker, raising his voice.
Alas! My standard? I had none, I had never thought of having one; and, moreover, this was easy to make out from my astonishment, flushed face and confusion.
The thinker rose indignantly. What, you wretched young man, you have no standard! It is useless then to read me your poem I know its worth beforehand. Thereupon, he poured out, one after another, the two or three glasses still re maining in the bottom of the bottle, took his hat, and went off, rolling his eyes furiously.
