:17:02
You must, my dear.
:17:04
Here it is. It's the story...
:17:07
No, listen:
:17:10
"It was on the previous morning
that she left Clermont for Paris,

:17:14
where she was to take up a post
reading to a general's widow."

:17:19
"A maid was to meet her."
:17:21
"A means of recognition
had been arranged by letter:

:17:24
"A grey feather in a black hat."
:17:27
There you are.
:17:29
You'll wear a hat with a black feather.
:17:32
You forget she's Hungarian,
that's why I came.

:17:34
Do you know any Hungarian writers?
:17:38
I'm sorry,
I still have some marking to do.

:17:47
Will you tell me how it went?
:18:10
Come in, come in...
:18:15
Come closer.
:18:19
Sit down.
:18:23
Speak a little, to hear.
:18:26
I know usually you say "to see".
:18:29
But I can barely see,
so say something.

:18:32
You are not 100 years old, madame.
:18:35
But how pretty you are, Nouchka!
:18:39
You have the voice
of a pretty one!

:18:43
Bella!
:18:46
She doesn't answer but she's there.
I swear on my cat.

:18:51
Tell her, Bella,
that she is pretty.

:18:54
- Yes, madame.
- You see.
