Il a �����t����� publi����� pour la premi�����re fois en 1886 et est devenu un classique de la litt�����rature pour enfants.""Oh!"" returned Renard, shrugging his shoulders, ""we did not give it to him. It was an awkward servant who dubbed him so at first. She was new to her position, and forgot his name, and being asked who had arrived, stumbled upon this bon mot: `Un monsieur, Madame -- le monsieur de la petite dame, ' -- and, being repeated and tossed lightly from hand to hand, it has become at last an established witticism, albeit bandied under breath.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
