    “But beauty vanishes; beauty passes;

    This lady of the West Country?”

    “Main Street was never the same. I read Gide and tried to
    translate Proust. Now nothing is real except French wine.
    For absurdity is reality, my loneliness unreal, my mind tired.
    And I shall die an old Parisian.”
