A chow chow on a leash mingles among commuters.
When emitted, the residue mingles with skin bacteria and intensifies bad odor.
One man feels at home in the atmosphere of the tavern, among the flaring tallow candles, and when the smell of spirits mingles with the fumes of bad tobacco.
He glances with a smile at the worm-eaten crowns, and if he happens to be a pious, thoughtful man, something of melancholy mingles with the smile.
