Messire Bénédict prit ce dernier parti. En conséquence nous retournâmes
En route, dans le cours de la journée j'avois rencontré un Ermin (Arménien) qui parloit un peu Italien. S'étant aperçu que j'étois chrétien, il se lia de conversation avec moi, et me conta beaucoup de détails, tant sur le pays et les habitans, que sur le soudan et ce Ramedang, seigneur de Turchmanie, dont je viens de faire mention. Il me dit que ce dernier étoit un homme de haute taille, très-brave, et le plus habile de tous les Turcs
He carried a yellow paper-covered volume in his hand. I asked him if it contained any amusing reading. "I really do not know," he answered, indifferently, "I have only just bought it. It is by Victor Hugo." And he held up the title-page for me to see. "Le Dernier Jour d'un Condamne," I read aloud with careful slowness. "Ah, indeed! You do well to read that. It is a very fine study!"
"J'ai deja dit ce qu'il faut penser de 'l'election naturelle'.

Instead of repeating anything I had taught her, she began in French: "Marie, enfant, quitte l'ouvrage, Voici l'etoille du berger." "Ma mere, un enfant du village Languit captif chez l'etranger; Pris sur mer, loin de sa patrie, Il c'est rendu, mais le dernier." File, file, pauvre Marie, Pour secourir le prisonnier; File, file, pauvre Marie, File, file, pour le prisonnier.
They administer justice, having the power of life and death, not only through the whole county of Nice, but causes are evoked from Oneglia, and some other places, to their tribunal, which is the dernier ressort, from whence there is no appeal.
Two or three months at Berlin are, considering all circumstances, necessary for you; and the Carnival months are the best; 'pour le reste decidez en dernier ressort, et sans appel comme d'abus'. Let me know your decree, when you have formed it.
They were not, however, wholly without their "stolen interviews," which, though "few and far between," with the additional disadvantage of being short, were, in this case, sufficient to keep the flame alive. They also found means of occasionally exchanging notices of each other upon paper that dernier resort of all unfortunate lovers.
