00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.630 align:middle line:84%
"Breakfast in Paris
with Nasturtiums."

00:00:04.630 --> 00:00:07.780 align:middle line:84%
Somewhere a jazzy fountain
plays against the babble

00:00:07.780 --> 00:00:11.920 align:middle line:84%
of the street, women meet on
the way to vegetable stalls,

00:00:11.920 --> 00:00:15.740 align:middle line:84%
and salad vendors, humped
under their braided baskets,

00:00:15.740 --> 00:00:17.950 align:middle line:84%
wheedle the
sun enchanted ear

00:00:17.950 --> 00:00:19.960 align:middle line:90%
with their monotonous calls.

00:00:19.960 --> 00:00:22.990 align:middle line:84%
And sweetly,
appropriately dressed,

00:00:22.990 --> 00:00:25.270 align:middle line:84%
a middle-aged lady
takes her seat

00:00:25.270 --> 00:00:27.970 align:middle line:84%
at a round table in
the shade, and looks

00:00:27.970 --> 00:00:30.190 align:middle line:90%
at a bowl of nasturtiums.

00:00:30.190 --> 00:00:31.720 align:middle line:90%
The sidewalk is neat.

00:00:31.720 --> 00:00:35.290 align:middle line:84%
The table is laid with a clean
cloth and floats upward

00:00:35.290 --> 00:00:37.900 align:middle line:84%
in spice scent,
whirls with yellow

00:00:37.900 --> 00:00:41.740 align:middle line:84%
and red on stiff green stalks,
almost tilting backward

00:00:41.740 --> 00:00:44.230 align:middle line:90%
into a flowering hedge.

00:00:44.230 --> 00:00:48.470 align:middle line:84%
A gendarme, sleeping babies,
and an exploding Lambretta

00:00:48.470 --> 00:00:50.860 align:middle line:90%
frame this delightful scene.

00:00:50.860 --> 00:00:52.600 align:middle line:90%
The lady is complacent.

00:00:52.600 --> 00:00:56.470 align:middle line:84%
Soon, she will be met by her
more-than-middle-aged love,

00:00:56.470 --> 00:01:00.640 align:middle line:84%
who often presses her puffy
fingers and fondles her name,

00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:03.520 align:middle line:84%
Henrietta, because
he can do no more.

00:01:03.520 --> 00:01:08.410 align:middle line:84%
She prepares herself by
removing her fresh white glove.

00:01:08.410 --> 00:01:11.920 align:middle line:84%
What is rare swings in the
balance of timelessness,

00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:16.420 align:middle line:84%
like a shadowed door that opens
upon the sun drenched street.

00:01:16.420 --> 00:01:19.690 align:middle line:84%
Therefore, the scent of
nasturtiums, and the fumes

00:01:19.690 --> 00:01:22.660 align:middle line:84%
of the Lambretta,
the gendarme's whistle,

00:01:22.660 --> 00:01:27.300 align:middle line:84%
and the sleeping babies
all wait with Henrietta.

00:01:27.300 --> 00:01:29.000 align:middle line:90%
