My coat and I live comfortably together.
by Victor Hugo

My coat and I live comfortably together.

has moulded itself on my deformities,
and is complacent to all my movements,
and I only feel its presence because it keeps me warm.
Old coats and old friends are the same thing.

in the dirt once or twice.
Up again, you shall never be so afraid of a tumble.
