Original Text:
(La Femme) Je viens de découvrir une mêche dans votre gilet!....
(Le Mari embarassé) Bon! bon! tu sais que je m'occupe de curiosité; je l'ai achetée aux commissaires priseurs. On dit que ça vient de Cléopatre!

Translation:
(The Wife): I have just discovered a lock of hair on your vest
(The Husband, embarrassed): Good, good, you know that I am involved in the business of curios.... I obtained this from the auctioneers. They said it comes from Cleopatra.
