菲尔莫一定觉察到了我的心思，也明白整夜坐着看别人于是多么难捱，他突然从衣袋里掏出一张一百法郎的票子，把它摔在我面前。他说，“瞧，你大概比我们其他人更需要嫖一回。拿着这钱，自己去挑一个吧。” 不知为什么，他摔钱的动作比他为我做过的任何事情都更加叫我觉得他可亲，而他为我做的已经很多了。盛情难却，我收下这笔钱，马上打手势叫那黑姑娘做好再睡一次的准备。这好像使公主怒不可遏，她质问我这儿是不是除了这个黑女人以外就再没有一个我们看得上的姑娘。我直截了当地告诉她“没有”，实情也的确如此— 这个黑女人是这座窑子的皇后。只要瞧她一眼你就会起兴，她的两只眼睛像是在精液里泡过一样，所有这些想同她睡的要求弄得她飘飘然，至少据我看她已经不会直直地走路了。跟在她身后爬上弯弯曲曲的窄楼梯时我无法抑制要把手伸进她两腿间去的诱惑，我们就这样一直上了楼。她回头朝我嫣然一笑，每当我的手把她弄得太痒了她便微微扭扭屁股。

Fillmore must have sensed how I felt, and what an ordeal¹ it was to sit and look on all night, for suddenly he pulled a hundred franc note out of his pocket and slapping it in front of me, he said: "Look here, you probably need a lay more than any of us. Take that and pick someone out for yourself." Somehow that gesture endeared him more to me than anything he had ever done for me, and he had done considerable. I accepted the money in the spirit it was given and promptly² signaled to the Negress to get ready for another lay. That enraged³ the princess more than anything, it appeared. She wanted to know if there wasn't anyone in the place good enough for us except this Negress. I told her bluntly NO. And it was so – the Negress was the queen of the harem. You had only to look at her to get an erection. Her eyes seemed to be swimming in sperm⁴. She was drunk with all the demands made upon her. She couldn't walk straight any more – at least it seemed that way to me. Going up the narrow winding⁵ stairs behind her I couldn't resist the temptation to slide my hand up her crotch; we continued up the stairs that way, she looking back at me with a cheerful smile and wiggling her
