Having mine with Henry

'Since you are here, then,' said Newman, 'we will begin. This is a very good hour. I am going to have my coffee; come every morning at half-past nine and have yours with me.'

      'Monsieur offers me my coffee, also?' cried M. Nioche. 'Truly, my beaux jours are coming back.'
