so there’s a book in the madeline series called “madeline says merci” and I just misread that as “madeline sans merci”

In an old house in Paris that was covered with vines
Lived twelve little girls in two straight lines
The smallest one was Madeline.
Full beautiful—a faery’s child,
Her hair was long, her foot was light,
And her eyes were wild.
