"Bonjour, mon toto aimé, bonjour, mon noble cœur vénéré, bonjour, mon grand Victor admiré, bonjour, mon sublime et généreux homme, bonjour, de l'âme et du cœur, bonjour. I predict a great success for you, despite the vociferations of the Thiers party and the other Montalemberts of this famous assembly.
