Mark Twain and Chauncey M. Depew once went abroad on the same ship. When the ship was a few days out they were both invited to a dinner, and when speech-making time came, Mark Twain had the first chance. He spoke twenty minutes and made a great hit. Then it was Mr. Depew's turn.
“Mr. Toastmaster and Ladies and Gentlemen,”said the famous speaker as he rose“Before this dinner Mark Twain and myself made an agreement to trade speeches. He had just delivered[di'liv+d],演講) my speech, and I thank you for the pleasant manner in which you received it. I regret to say that I have lost the notes of his speech and can not remember anything he was to say.”
Then he sat down, and there was much laughter.
