Ball of Fat 37
The good sisters, taking up simultaneously the long rosaries hanging from their
waists, made the sign of the cross, and began to mutter in unison interminable
prayers, their lips moving ever more and more swiftly, as if they sought which
should outdistance the other in the race of orisons; from time to time they
kissed a medal, and crossed themselves anew, then resumed their rapid and
unintelligible murmur.
Cornudet sat still, lost in thought.
Ah the end of three hours Loiseau gathered up the cards, and remarked that he
was hungry.
His wife thereupon produced a parcel tied with string, from which she extracted
a piece of cold veal. This she cut into neat, thin slices, and both began to
eat.
"We may as well do the same," said the countess. The rest agreed, and she
unpacked the provisions which had been prepared for herself, the count, and the
Carre-Lamadons. In one of those oval dishes, the lids of which are decorated
with an earthenware hare, by way of showing that a game pie lies within, was a
succulent delicacy consisting of the brown flesh of the game larded with streaks
of bacon and flavored with other meats chopped fine. A solid wedge of Gruyere
cheese, which had been wrapped in a newspaper, bore the imprint: "Items of
News," on its rich, oily surface.
The two good sisters brought to light a hunk of sausage smelling strongly of
garlic; and Cornudet, plunging both hands at once into the capacious pockets of
his loose overcoat, produced from one four hard-boiled eggs and from the other a
crust of bread. He removed the shells, threw them into the straw beneath his
feet, and began to devour the eggs, letting morsels of the bright yellow yolk
fall in his mighty beard, where they looked like stars.
Ball of Fat, in the haste and confusion of her departure, had not thought of
anything, and, stifling with rage, she watched all these people placidly eating.
At first, ill-suppressed wrath shook her whole person, and she opened her lips
to shriek the truth at them, to overwhelm them with a volley of insults; but she
could not utter a word, so choked was she with indignation.
