From The Pigeon by John Galsworthy

41 sec

Ah! Monsieur, I am loafer, waster--what you like--for all that poverty is my only crime. If I were rich, should I not be simply veree original, 'ighly respected, with soul above commerce, travelling to see the world? And that young girl, would she not be "that charming ladee," "veree chic, you know!" And the old Tims--good old-fashioned gentleman--drinking his liquor well. Eh! bien--what are we now? Dark beasts, despised by all. That is life, Monsieur.
