- Well, I asked him where he was these days. First, he ranted on about
- people misspelling his name, and calling him sordid. Finally, when I
- insisted, he said:
-
- Par les soirs d'e'te', j'irai dans les sentiers, . . .
- Et j'irai loin, bien loin, comme un bohe'mien,
- Par la nature, - heureux comme avec une femme.
-
- But can you be more specific?
-
- C'est un trou de verdure ou` chante une rivie`re . . .
-
- And finally,
-
- Je me crois en enfer, donc j'y suis.
-
- Then he would say no more.
-
- Well, I doubt any of those places is connected to the Internet, so I
- guess you're out of luck - you'll just have to find your own answers to
- your questions.
-
- In the meantime, it had been too long since I read Rimbaud - I think
- I'll go spend some time with him again . . .
