PARISIANS IN THE COUNTRYSIDE. - AREN'T WE A BIT TOO AUDACIOUS TO GET INVOLVED IN SUCH AN ADVENTURE.... DOWN THERE I SEE SOMETHING RATHER DISTURBING... I AM NOT SURE WHETHER IT IS WISE TO ADVANCE ANY FURTHER. - BUT I THINK THESE ARE SIMPLY MILLSTONES... - AND I WAS AFRAID THESE MIGHT BE THE HUTS OF SOME SAVAGES!

Parisians in the countryside. - Aren't we a bit too audacious to get involved in such an adventure.... down there I see something rather disturbing... I am not sure whether it is wise to advance any further. - But I think these are simply millstones... - And I was afraid these might be the huts of some savages!
