"That's very impolite behaviour on your part, young ladies, " said she. " It is not right to whisper when other people are present. Something indecent, no doubt ! Ah ! that's becom- ing!" However, she did not venture to ask what it was that Sophie had said, despite her furious longing to learn it. But, for a moment, looking dignified, with her nose pointed downwards, she regaled herself with the chatter of the workgirls. None of them could make a remark, the most innocent one in the world, abou...t her work, for instance, without the others interpreting it maliciously; they distorted its meaning, and gave it a nasty signification. And they connected everything with the gentle- man who was waiting over the way they always contrived to associate him with their allusions. Ah ! his ears must have tingled, and no mistake ! They ended by saying some very stupid things in their anxiety to be witty. Still, this did not prevent them from finding the pastime an amusing one, and excited, with sparkling eyes, they indulged in hotter remarks than ever.
