dejeuner

On a sudden, it seemed that a thousand bugles broke the blue air, and they were summoned to a dejeuner in four crimson tents, worthy of Sardanapalus.

After going round the garden we returned to the house, where we found a dejeuner set out in the drawing-room, consisting of caviare, cheese, &c., and, of course, liqueurs.

Then at 9:30 we had dejeuner, which means a regular dinner.

He wants the frankness (now) of manner which alone could carry a man in his position through an hour’s dejeunering with squab citymen who had no notion of what it would be proper to say to him.

As during my stay at Phalsburg I have been dejeunering and dining with the German commandant and officers, the contrast between their mode of thought and that of my French friends is very striking.

“Got up—washed—breakfasted—dejeunered—dined—smoked—went to bed.”
