"Unless it's a café au lait?" I venture. "Of course," says he, "or a cappuccino." "Exactly." I say. "Just so." "Sartre sans sucre?" I ask. "No. Nein. Niet-zsche, pas de lait."

"Not so," he replies, "Some say it was in Yemen, the Port of Mocha. Others say it was Ethiopia, in the district of Kaffa. In any case, it is Arabian."
