Annotated text:
Of course I was sorry to say good-bye to old
Medehamstede ; but it was pleasant to sit down
and to really find myself alone at last. Those
emotional times were trying to us all. I felt that
my lips were paler than I liked ; but a touch of
Pasquiers claret soon put me right. Dear old
Pasquier, I had come across him in Paris, at that
little place in the Rue de la Harpe, a street in
which, I have been told, there was a touch of
orderly room even in the disorderly houses. I
opened a magazine and looked hastily through
the last paragraphs of the short stories. I was all
for love ; but fading out on an embrace never
appealed to me. The embrace in my short
stories---and my life was all short stories, I had
come to think---occurred in the first few
words. And afterwards the plot. The complete
novel length looked better. It was called Savage
Conqueror, and I liked that.
