Quote context

- Oh, thank you.

- Yes, madame. This is the prisoner's little child.

All day, tumbrils go through the streets, feeding the guillotine, and at its foot, splashed with blood, sit the women knitting late into the night, counting dropping heads.

I neither want any thanks or merit any. It was nothing to do in the first place, and I don't know why I did it in the second.
