As soon as dinner was over, both Candide and Cacambo thought they should pay very handsomely for their entertainment by laying down two of those large gold pieces which they had picked off the ground; but the landlord and landlady burst into a fit of laughing and held their sides for some time.
Quand le repas fut fini, Cacambo crut, ainsi que Candide, bien payer son écot, en jetant sur la table de l'hôte deux de ces larges pièces d'or qu'il avait ramassées; l'hôte et l'hôtesse éclatèrent de rire, et se tinrent long-temps les côtés. Enfin ils se remirent.
