Before he made answer Michu looked at his dog, which, stretched at full length and basking in the warm sunshine, his head cradled between his extended paws in the pretty attitude characteristic of animals of his breed, had raised his head, and, looking straight before him, was scenting the breeze, now down the long avenue that stretched away for a quarter of a league, now in the direction of a crossroad that debouched into the round-point on the left.
No, not deer this time, Michu replied, but a beast that I don't want to miss - a lynx. The dog, a handsome setter with a white and liver-colored coat, gave a low growl. Good dog! Michu ejaculated to himself. Spies, eh? The country is overrun with 'em.
