MONSIEUR JOURDAIN: No, no. MASTER TAILOR: You have only to say so. MONSIEUR JOURDAIN: No, I tell you. You've made it very well. Do you think the suit is going to look good on me? MASTER TAILOR: What a question! I defy a painter with his brush to do anything that would fit you better. I have a worker in my place who is the greatest genius in the world at mounting a rhinegrave, and another who is the hero of the age at assembling a doublet. MONSIEUR JOURDAIN: The perruque and the plumes: are they correct? MASTER TAILOR: Everything's good. MONSIEUR JOURDAIN: (Looking at the tailor's suit) Ah! Ah! Monsieur Tailor, here's the material from the last suit you made for me. I know it well. MASTER TAILOR: You see, the material seemed so fine that I wanted a suit made of it for myself. MONSIEUR JOURDAIN: Yes, but you should not have cut it out of mine. MASTER TAILOR: Do you want to put on your suit? MONSIEUR JOURDAIN: Yes, give it to me. |
