Part 3 Ch. 5

    "For fear of being seen, she usually didn't take the shortest way. She would plunch into a maze of dark alleys, and emerge, hot and perspiring, close to the fountain at the lower end near the Rue Nationale. This is the part of town near the theatre, full of bars and prostitutes. Often a vanrumbled by, laden with shaky stage-sets. Aproned waiters were sanding the pavement between the tubs of green bushes. There was a smell of absinth, cigars and oysters." (Pg 311)

Part 1 Ch.4

The invited guests arrived early in a variety of vehicles-- one-horse shays, two-wheeled charabancs, old gigs without tops, vans with leather curtains; and the young men from the nearest villages came in farm-carts, standing one behind the other along the sides and grasping the rails to keep from being thrown, for the horses trotted briskly and the roads were rough. They came as far as twenty-five miles away, from Goderville, from Normanville, from Cany.
