MUSIC MASTER: And if all men learned music, wouldn't that be a

DANCING MASTER: When a man has committed a mistake in his conduct,

the command of an army, do we not always say, "He took a bad step

MONSIEUR JOURDAIN: Yes, that's said.

DANCING MASTER: And can taking a bad step result from anything but
not knowing how to dance?
