The scanty information he managed to obtain was not
ofan encouraging nature.
Why not sentence the man to ten years imprisonment?
He ispoor, very well, all the better; but his party will pay the fine
forhim.
Theconversation as they drove to it was
perfect.
Julien was obsessed by this strange idea: Can he be
laughing at me?
This was a chillycreature, with expressionless
features.
His head, remarkably narrow, was crowned with a
pyramid of the mostbeautiful golden locks. Julien felt an invincible reluctance to
go away, he prolonged theexplanation.
It is impossible for me toadmit that I have fought
a duel with a mere secretary of M.
Is it your famous pair of arabs that you are
keeping waiting in thisweather?
Yet it is the coolest well in all the Diar
Bekir.
But, in less than two months, the Marquis realised
itsadvantages. You would say the light shone through it.
It should have been a fine of five hundred francs
and ten yearsin a dungeon.
On his return: What amusing idea have you brought
me from England?
Agreed, said Julien, with delight; and they went to
find M.
Go and spend a couple of months in London, he told
Julien.
Howarrogant her way of bowing, of looking at
people! The Marquis was the son of a great nobleman. No, I have a new pair that cost
much less, replied M. He was going to beappointed Mayor of Verrieres in the place of
M. Thirdly, nothing in the world is so beautiful, admirable, moving asthe English
countryside. This fancy, if it lasts, will cost me a diamond worth five hundredlouis
in my will. It is impossible for me toadmit that I have fought a duel with a mere
secretary of M. The scanty information he managed to obtain was not ofan encouraging
nature.
I know the truth about Juliens birth, and I
authorise you not to keepthis confidence secret.
