The situation depicts Parson Yorick and the gloveseller in her Paris shop: 'The beautiful Grisette look’d sometimes at the gloves, then sideways to the window, then at the gloves – and then at me. I was not disposed to break silence – I follow’d her example: so I look’d at the gloves, then to the window, then at the gloves, and then at her – and so on alternately. I found I lost considerably in every attack.'
