Enfin, l’un de mes amis me raconta qu’il s’était mis une nuit, en rêvant, dans la plus violente colère, parce qu’il s’imaginait interroger quelqu’un qui ne répondait que par des ho ! ho ! à toutes ses demandes. Et il reconnut, en s’éveillant, que ces ho ! ho ! n’étaient que l’écho de ses propres ronflements.
