And the old fellow replied in a fury: They do not bite at all. I have taken nothing since noon. Only men should ever go fishing. Women always delay the start till it is too late. His two sons, Pierre and Jean, who each held a line twisted round his forefinger, one to port and one to starboard, both began to laugh, and Jean remarked: You are not very polite to our guest, father. M. Roland was abashed, and apologized.…
