==General notes on this chapter==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==French text==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Pour tout r&amp;amp;eacute;sumer encore, le gamin de Paris aujourd'hui, comme autrefois&lt;br /&gt;
le ''gracculus'' de Rome, c'est le peuple enfant ayant au front la ride du&lt;br /&gt;
monde vieux.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Le gamin est une gr&amp;amp;acirc;ce pour la nation, et en m&amp;amp;ecirc;me temps une maladie.&lt;br /&gt;
Maladie qu'il faut gu&amp;amp;eacute;rir. Comment? Par la lumi&amp;amp;egrave;re.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
La lumi&amp;amp;egrave;re assainit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
La lumi&amp;amp;egrave;re allume.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Toutes les g&amp;amp;eacute;n&amp;amp;eacute;reuses irradiations sociales sortent de la science, des&lt;br /&gt;
lettres, des arts, de l'enseignement. Faites des hommes, faites des&lt;br /&gt;
hommes. &amp;amp;Eacute;clairez-les pour qu'ils vous &amp;amp;eacute;chauffent. T&amp;amp;ocirc;t ou tard la&lt;br /&gt;
splendide question de l'instruction universelle se posera avec&lt;br /&gt;
l'irr&amp;amp;eacute;sistible autorit&amp;amp;eacute; du vrai absolu; et alors ceux qui gouverneront&lt;br /&gt;
sous la surveillance de l'id&amp;amp;eacute;e fran&amp;amp;ccedil;aise auront &amp;amp;agrave; faire ce choix: les&lt;br /&gt;
enfants de la France, ou les gamins de Paris; des flammes dans la&lt;br /&gt;
lumi&amp;amp;egrave;re ou des feux follets dans les t&amp;amp;eacute;n&amp;amp;egrave;bres.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Le gamin exprime Paris, et Paris exprime le monde.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Car Paris est un total. Paris est le plafond du genre humain. Toute&lt;br /&gt;
cette prodigieuse ville est un raccourci des m&amp;amp;oelig;urs mortes et des m&amp;amp;oelig;urs&lt;br /&gt;
vivantes. Qui voit Paris croit voir le dessous de toute l'histoire avec&lt;br /&gt;
du ciel et des constellations dans les intervalles. Paris a un Capitole,&lt;br /&gt;
l'H&amp;amp;ocirc;tel de ville, un Parth&amp;amp;eacute;non, Notre-Dame, un Mont Aventin, le faubourg&lt;br /&gt;
Saint-Antoine, un Asinarium, la Sorbonne, un Panth&amp;amp;eacute;on, le Panth&amp;amp;eacute;on, une&lt;br /&gt;
Voie Sacr&amp;amp;eacute;e, le boulevard des Italiens, une Tour des Vents, l'opinion;&lt;br /&gt;
et il remplace les g&amp;amp;eacute;monies par le ridicule. Son majo s'appelle le&lt;br /&gt;
faraud, son transt&amp;amp;eacute;v&amp;amp;eacute;rin s'appelle le faubourien, son hammal s'appelle le&lt;br /&gt;
fort de la halle, son lazzarone s'appelle la p&amp;amp;egrave;gre, son cockney&lt;br /&gt;
s'appelle le gandin. Tout ce qui est ailleurs est &amp;amp;agrave; Paris. La poissarde&lt;br /&gt;
de Dumarsais peut donner la r&amp;amp;eacute;plique &amp;amp;agrave; la vendeuse d'herbes d'Euripide,&lt;br /&gt;
le discobole Vejanus revit dans le danseur de corde Forioso,&lt;br /&gt;
Therapontigonus Miles prendrait bras dessus bras dessous le grenadier&lt;br /&gt;
Vadebonc&amp;amp;oelig;ur, Damasippe le brocanteur serait heureux chez les marchands&lt;br /&gt;
de bric-&amp;amp;agrave;-brac, Vincennes empoignerait Socrate tout comme l'Agora&lt;br /&gt;
coffrerait Diderot, Grimod de la Reyni&amp;amp;egrave;re a d&amp;amp;eacute;couvert le roastbeef au&lt;br /&gt;
suif comme Curtillus avait invent&amp;amp;eacute; le h&amp;amp;eacute;risson r&amp;amp;ocirc;ti, nous voyons&lt;br /&gt;
repara&amp;amp;icirc;tre sous le ballon de l'arc de l'&amp;amp;Eacute;toile le trap&amp;amp;egrave;ze qui est dans&lt;br /&gt;
Plaute, le mangeur d'&amp;amp;eacute;p&amp;amp;eacute;es du Poecile rencontr&amp;amp;eacute; par Apul&amp;amp;eacute;e est avaleur&lt;br /&gt;
de sabres sur le Pont-Neuf, le neveu de Rameau et Curculion le parasite&lt;br /&gt;
font la paire, Ergasile se ferait pr&amp;amp;eacute;senter chez Cambac&amp;amp;eacute;r&amp;amp;egrave;s par&lt;br /&gt;
d'Aigrefeuille; les quatre muscadins de Rome, Alcesimarchus, Phoedromus,&lt;br /&gt;
Diabolus et Argirippe descendent de la Courtille dans la chaise de poste&lt;br /&gt;
de Labatut; Aulu-Gelle ne s'arr&amp;amp;ecirc;tait pas plus longtemps devant Congrio&lt;br /&gt;
que Charles Nodier devant Polichinelle; Marton n'est pas une tigresse,&lt;br /&gt;
mais Pardalisca n'&amp;amp;eacute;tait point un dragon; Pantolabus le loustic blague au&lt;br /&gt;
caf&amp;amp;eacute; anglais Nomentanus le viveur, Hermog&amp;amp;egrave;ne est t&amp;amp;eacute;nor aux&lt;br /&gt;
Champs-&amp;amp;Eacute;lys&amp;amp;eacute;es, et, autour de lui, Thrasius le gueux, v&amp;amp;ecirc;tu en Bob&amp;amp;egrave;che,&lt;br /&gt;
fait la qu&amp;amp;ecirc;te; l'importun qui vous arr&amp;amp;ecirc;te aux Tuileries par le bouton de&lt;br /&gt;
votre habit vous fait r&amp;amp;eacute;p&amp;amp;eacute;ter apr&amp;amp;egrave;s deux mille ans l'apostrophe de&lt;br /&gt;
Thesprion: ''quis properantem me prehendit pallio''? le vin de Suresnes&lt;br /&gt;
parodie le vin d'Albe, le rouge bord de Desaugiers fait &amp;amp;eacute;quilibre &amp;amp;agrave; la&lt;br /&gt;
grande coupe de Balatron, le P&amp;amp;egrave;re-Lachaise exhale sous les pluies&lt;br /&gt;
nocturnes les m&amp;amp;ecirc;mes lueurs que les Esquilies, et la fosse du pauvre&lt;br /&gt;
achet&amp;amp;eacute;e pour cinq ans vaut la bi&amp;amp;egrave;re de louage de l'Esclave.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Cherchez quelque chose que Paris n'ait pas. La cuve de Trophonius ne&lt;br /&gt;
contient rien qui ne soit dans le baquet de Mesmer; Ergaphilos&lt;br /&gt;
ressuscite dans Cagliostro; le brahmine V&amp;amp;acirc;saphant&amp;amp;acirc; s'incarne dans le&lt;br /&gt;
comte de Saint-Germain; le cimeti&amp;amp;egrave;re de Saint-M&amp;amp;eacute;dard fait de tout aussi&lt;br /&gt;
bons miracles que la mosqu&amp;amp;eacute;e Oumoumi&amp;amp;eacute; de Damas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Paris a un &amp;amp;Eacute;sope qui est Mayeux, et une Canidie qui est mademoiselle&lt;br /&gt;
Lenormand. Il s'effare comme Delphes aux r&amp;amp;eacute;alit&amp;amp;eacute;s fulgurantes de la&lt;br /&gt;
vision; il fait tourner les tables comme Dodone les tr&amp;amp;eacute;pieds. Il met la&lt;br /&gt;
grisette sur le tr&amp;amp;ocirc;ne comme Rome y met la courtisane; et, somme toute,&lt;br /&gt;
si Louis XV est pire que Claude, madame Dubarry vaut mieux que&lt;br /&gt;
Messaline. Paris combine dans un type inou&amp;amp;iuml;, qui a v&amp;amp;eacute;cu et que nous&lt;br /&gt;
avons coudoy&amp;amp;eacute;, la nudit&amp;amp;eacute; grecque, l'ulc&amp;amp;egrave;re h&amp;amp;eacute;bra&amp;amp;iuml;que et le quolibet&lt;br /&gt;
gascon. Il m&amp;amp;ecirc;le Diog&amp;amp;egrave;ne, Job et Paillasse, habille un spectre de vieux&lt;br /&gt;
num&amp;amp;eacute;ros du ''Constitutionnel'', et fait Chodruc Duclos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Bien que Plutarque dise: ''le tyran n'envieillit gu&amp;amp;egrave;re'', Rome, sous Sylla&lt;br /&gt;
comme sous Domitien, se r&amp;amp;eacute;signait et mettait volontiers de l'eau dans&lt;br /&gt;
son vin. Le Tibre &amp;amp;eacute;tait un L&amp;amp;eacute;th&amp;amp;eacute;, s'il faut en croire l'&amp;amp;eacute;loge un peu&lt;br /&gt;
doctrinaire qu'en faisait Varus Vibiscus: ''Contra Gracchos Tiberim&lt;br /&gt;
habemus. Bibere Tiberim, id est seditionem oblivisci''. Paris boit un&lt;br /&gt;
million de litres d'eau par jour, mais cela ne l'emp&amp;amp;ecirc;che pas dans&lt;br /&gt;
l'occasion de battre la g&amp;amp;eacute;n&amp;amp;eacute;rale et de sonner le tocsin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;Agrave; cela pr&amp;amp;egrave;s, Paris est bon enfant. Il accepte royalement tout; il n'est&lt;br /&gt;
pas difficile en fait de V&amp;amp;eacute;nus; sa callipyge est hottentote; pourvu&lt;br /&gt;
qu'il rie, il amnistie; la laideur l'&amp;amp;eacute;gaye, la difformit&amp;amp;eacute; le d&amp;amp;eacute;sopile,&lt;br /&gt;
le vice le distrait; soyez dr&amp;amp;ocirc;le, et vous pourrez &amp;amp;ecirc;tre un dr&amp;amp;ocirc;le;&lt;br /&gt;
l'hypocrisie m&amp;amp;ecirc;me, ce cynisme supr&amp;amp;ecirc;me, ne le r&amp;amp;eacute;volte pas; il est si&lt;br /&gt;
litt&amp;amp;eacute;raire qu'il ne se bouche pas le nez devant Basile, et il ne se&lt;br /&gt;
scandalise pas plus de la pri&amp;amp;egrave;re de Tartuffe qu'Horace ne s'effarouche&lt;br /&gt;
du &amp;amp;laquo;hoquet&amp;amp;raquo; de Priape. Aucun trait de la face universelle ne manque au&lt;br /&gt;
profil de Paris. Le bal Mabille n'est pas la danse polymnienne du&lt;br /&gt;
Janicule, mais la revendeuse &amp;amp;agrave; la toilette y couve des yeux la lorette&lt;br /&gt;
exactement comme l'entremetteuse Staphyla guettait la vierge Planesium.&lt;br /&gt;
La barri&amp;amp;egrave;re du Combat n'est pas un Colis&amp;amp;eacute;e, mais on y est f&amp;amp;eacute;roce comme&lt;br /&gt;
si C&amp;amp;eacute;sar regardait. L'h&amp;amp;ocirc;tesse syrienne a plus de gr&amp;amp;acirc;ce que la m&amp;amp;egrave;re&lt;br /&gt;
Saguet, mais, si Virgile hantait le cabaret romain, David d'Angers,&lt;br /&gt;
Balzac et Charlet se sont attabl&amp;amp;eacute;s &amp;amp;agrave; la gargote parisienne. Paris r&amp;amp;egrave;gne.&lt;br /&gt;
Les g&amp;amp;eacute;nies y flamboient, les queues rouges y prosp&amp;amp;egrave;rent. Adona&amp;amp;iuml; y passe&lt;br /&gt;
sur son char aux douze roues de tonnerre et d'&amp;amp;eacute;clairs; Sil&amp;amp;egrave;ne y fait son&lt;br /&gt;
entr&amp;amp;eacute;e sur sa bourrique. Sil&amp;amp;egrave;ne, lisez Ramponneau.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Paris est synonyme de Cosmos. Paris est Ath&amp;amp;egrave;nes, Rome, Sybaris,&lt;br /&gt;
J&amp;amp;eacute;rusalem, Pantin. Toutes les civilisations y sont en abr&amp;amp;eacute;g&amp;amp;eacute;, toutes les&lt;br /&gt;
barbaries aussi. Paris serait bien f&amp;amp;acirc;ch&amp;amp;eacute; de n'avoir pas une guillotine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Un peu de place de Gr&amp;amp;egrave;ve est bon. Que serait toute cette f&amp;amp;ecirc;te &amp;amp;eacute;ternelle&lt;br /&gt;
sans cet assaisonnement? Nos lois y ont sagement pourvu, et, gr&amp;amp;acirc;ce &amp;amp;agrave;&lt;br /&gt;
elles, ce couperet s'&amp;amp;eacute;goutte sur ce mardi gras.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
==English text==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To sum it all up once more, the Paris gamin of to-day, like the graeculus&lt;br /&gt;
of Rome in days gone by, is the infant populace with the wrinkle of the&lt;br /&gt;
old world on his brow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The gamin is a grace to the nation, and at the same time a disease; a&lt;br /&gt;
disease which must be cured, how? By light.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Light renders healthy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Light kindles.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
All generous social irradiations spring from science, letters, arts,&lt;br /&gt;
education. Make men, make men. Give them light that they may warm you.&lt;br /&gt;
Sooner or later the splendid question of universal education will present&lt;br /&gt;
itself with the irresistible authority of the absolute truth; and then,&lt;br /&gt;
those who govern under the superintendence of the French idea will have to&lt;br /&gt;
make this choice; the children of France or the gamins of Paris; flames in&lt;br /&gt;
the light or will-o'-the-wisps in the gloom.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The gamin expresses Paris, and Paris expresses the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
For Paris is a total. Paris is the ceiling of the human race. The whole of&lt;br /&gt;
this prodigious city is a foreshortening of dead manners and living&lt;br /&gt;
manners. He who sees Paris thinks he sees the bottom of all history with&lt;br /&gt;
heaven and constellations in the intervals. Paris has a capital, the&lt;br /&gt;
Town-Hall, a Parthenon, Notre-Dame, a Mount Aventine, the Faubourg&lt;br /&gt;
Saint-Antoine, an Asinarium, the Sorbonne, a Pantheon, the Pantheon, a Via&lt;br /&gt;
Sacra, the Boulevard des Italiens, a temple of the winds, opinion; and it&lt;br /&gt;
replaces the Gemoniae by ridicule. Its majo is called &amp;quot;faraud,&amp;quot; its&lt;br /&gt;
Transteverin is the man of the faubourgs, its hammal is the market-porter,&lt;br /&gt;
its lazzarone is the pegre, its cockney is the native of Ghent. Everything&lt;br /&gt;
that exists elsewhere exists at Paris. The fishwoman of Dumarsais can&lt;br /&gt;
retort on the herb-seller of Euripides, the discobols Vejanus lives again&lt;br /&gt;
in the Forioso, the tight-rope dancer. Therapontigonus Miles could walk&lt;br /&gt;
arm in arm with Vadebonc&amp;amp;oelig;ur the grenadier, Damasippus the&lt;br /&gt;
second-hand dealer would be happy among bric-a-brac merchants, Vincennes&lt;br /&gt;
could grasp Socrates in its fist as just as Agora could imprison Diderot,&lt;br /&gt;
Grimod de la Reynière discovered larded roast beef, as Curtillus invented&lt;br /&gt;
roast hedgehog, we see the trapeze which figures in Plautus reappear under&lt;br /&gt;
the vault of the Arc of l'Etoile, the sword-eater of Poecilus encountered&lt;br /&gt;
by Apuleius is a sword-swallower on the Pont Neuf, the nephew of Rameau&lt;br /&gt;
and Curculio the parasite make a pair, Ergasilus could get himself&lt;br /&gt;
presented to Cambaceres by d'Aigrefeuille; the four dandies of Rome:&lt;br /&gt;
Alcesimarchus, Phoedromus, Diabolus, and Argyrippus, descend from&lt;br /&gt;
Courtille in Labatut's posting-chaise; Aulus Gellius would halt no longer&lt;br /&gt;
in front of Congrio than would Charles Nodier in front of Punchinello;&lt;br /&gt;
Marto is not a tigress, but Pardalisca was not a dragon; Pantolabus the&lt;br /&gt;
wag jeers in the Cafe Anglais at Nomentanus the fast liver, Hermogenus is&lt;br /&gt;
a tenor in the Champs-Elysees, and round him, Thracius the beggar, clad&lt;br /&gt;
like Bobeche, takes up a collection; the bore who stops you by the button&lt;br /&gt;
of your coat in the Tuileries makes you repeat after a lapse of two&lt;br /&gt;
thousand years Thesprion's apostrophe: Quis properantem me prehendit&lt;br /&gt;
pallio? The wine on Surene is a parody of the wine of Alba, the red border&lt;br /&gt;
of Desaugiers forms a balance to the great cutting of Balatro, Pere&lt;br /&gt;
Lachaise exhales beneath nocturnal rains same gleams as the Esquiliae, and&lt;br /&gt;
the grave of the poor bought for five years, is certainly the equivalent&lt;br /&gt;
of the slave's hived coffin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Seek something that Paris has not. The vat of Trophonius contains nothing&lt;br /&gt;
that is not in Mesmer's tub; Ergaphilas lives again in Cagliostro; the&lt;br /&gt;
Brahmin Vasaphanta become incarnate in the Comte de Saint-Germain; the&lt;br /&gt;
cemetery of Saint-Medard works quite as good miracles as the Mosque of&lt;br /&gt;
Oumoumie at Damascus.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Paris has an AEsop-Mayeux, and a Canidia, Mademoiselle Lenormand. It is&lt;br /&gt;
terrified, like Delphos at the fulgurating realities of the vision; it&lt;br /&gt;
makes tables turn as Dodona did tripods. It places the grisette on the&lt;br /&gt;
throne, as Rome placed the courtesan there; and, taking it altogether, if&lt;br /&gt;
Louis XV. is worse than Claudian, Madame Dubarry is better than Messalina.&lt;br /&gt;
Paris combines in an unprecedented type, which has existed and which we&lt;br /&gt;
have elbowed, Grecian nudity, the Hebraic ulcer, and the Gascon pun. It&lt;br /&gt;
mingles Diogenes, Job, and Jack-pudding, dresses up a spectre in old&lt;br /&gt;
numbers of the Constitutional, and makes Chodruc Duclos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Although Plutarch says: the tyrant never grows old, Rome, under Sylla as&lt;br /&gt;
under Domitian, resigned itself and willingly put water in its wine. The&lt;br /&gt;
Tiber was a Lethe, if the rather doctrinary eulogium made of it by Varus&lt;br /&gt;
Vibiscus is to be credited: Contra Gracchos Tiberim habemus, Bibere&lt;br /&gt;
Tiberim, id est seditionem oblivisci. Paris drinks a million litres of&lt;br /&gt;
water a day, but that does not prevent it from occasionally beating the&lt;br /&gt;
general alarm and ringing the tocsin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
With that exception, Paris is amiable. It accepts everything royally; it&lt;br /&gt;
is not too particular about its Venus; its Callipyge is Hottentot;&lt;br /&gt;
provided that it is made to laugh, it condones; ugliness cheers it,&lt;br /&gt;
deformity provokes it to laughter, vice diverts it; be eccentric and you&lt;br /&gt;
may be an eccentric; even hypocrisy, that supreme cynicism, does not&lt;br /&gt;
disgust it; it is so literary that it does not hold its nose before&lt;br /&gt;
Basile, and is no more scandalized by the prayer of Tartuffe than Horace&lt;br /&gt;
was repelled by the &amp;quot;hiccup&amp;quot; of Priapus. No trait of the universal face is&lt;br /&gt;
lacking in the profile of Paris. The bal Mabile is not the polymnia dance&lt;br /&gt;
of the Janiculum, but the dealer in ladies' wearing apparel there devours&lt;br /&gt;
the lorette with her eyes, exactly as the procuress Staphyla lay in wait&lt;br /&gt;
for the virgin Planesium. The Barriere du Combat is not the Coliseum, but&lt;br /&gt;
people are as ferocious there as though Caesar were looking on. The Syrian&lt;br /&gt;
hostess has more grace than Mother Saguet, but, if Virgil haunted the&lt;br /&gt;
Roman wine-shop, David d'Angers, Balzac and Charlet have sat at the tables&lt;br /&gt;
of Parisian taverns. Paris reigns. Geniuses flash forth there, the red&lt;br /&gt;
tails prosper there. Adonai passes on his chariot with its twelve wheels&lt;br /&gt;
of thunder and lightning; Silenus makes his entry there on his ass. For&lt;br /&gt;
Silenus read Ramponneau.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Paris is the synonym of Cosmos, Paris is Athens, Sybaris, Jerusalem,&lt;br /&gt;
Pantin. All civilizations are there in an abridged form, all barbarisms&lt;br /&gt;
also. Paris would greatly regret it if it had not a guillotine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
A little of the Place de Greve is a good thing. What would all that&lt;br /&gt;
eternal festival be without this seasoning? Our laws are wisely provided,&lt;br /&gt;
and thanks to them, this blade drips on this Shrove Tuesday.&lt;br /&gt;
