The title is a barbarism in french
[edit]
and ought to be (as written on the post-card) "Amies de pension" (Pension friends).
The doggerel verses explain that "The husband, to be very quiet, had taken (for wife) a virgin - & went away to hunt -and in the meantime, his wife, a fair-faced little lady, readily began burning a taper on his behalf (with her pension friend)..." . So the "coquine" (naughty) post-card would be about a matrimonial incident. In fact some examination shows it is really a SM image... T.y. Arapaima (talk) 08:08, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
