E: The beautiful soul, souls, in harmony with our little gathering3 of the finer minds, quite the finest really, the very best young writers, artists...

D: And cast out the Devil's new contraption, the brassiere! And all the swaddling and strapping4 that constricts5 the freely-flowing and God-glorifying bounty6 of belly7 and breast! Of airy buttock...

V: Why, Mr Duchemin, you are one of us! All we new women are united against the corset, it is the very devil! You must write an article for our paper. How splendid.
