Toen ik onlangs bij Waar was
kocht ik een cadeautje voor een vriendin
Bij de kassa zag ik deze zakjes
Prijs 1 euro
Wat zit erin?
Heerlijk ruikende zeepjes
Zodra ik kan
ga ik er nog een keer heen
Hopelijk hebben ze nog zakjes



She was an Englishwoman who had been raised in France by her aunt, Mrs. Belam. Although their relationship appears to have been established at this time, Alexis had to overcome his family's reluctance before being able to consider marriage. It should be pointed out that in addition to being English and Protestant, Marie Mottley was older than him and was far from being well-off. None of these characteristics made her the ideal aristocratic spouse that Alexis's family and friends desired for him. He nevertheless attempted to convince them by assuring them that Marie possessed everything to make him happy and, resolute in his choice, he married her on October 26, 1835 at the Saint-Thomas-d'Aquin church in Paris, after which she converted to Catholicism.
