"Le jour de gloire est arrive?" sang the croaking voice of Dame Capoulade, and there it stopped abruptly upon catching sight of La Boulaye and his companion in the doorway. Mademoiselle shivered out of loathing; but La Boulaye felt his pulses quickened with hope, for surely all this was calculated to assist him in his purpose.
'No calling at the Grapes, mind you, said the assistant 'You'd better look in at the infirmary about eleven o'clock to-morrow. 'I'll do that, she answered. 'Will ye be lendin' me your shoulder as far as the dure, young man? I'll be better in a minute. Paul did as she requested, but he crawled with repulsion beneath her hand.

I will inform the man you love who you are, and, believe me, he will turn from you with contempt and loathing; he will not follow you into the paradise of solitude into which you would fain escape with him. Listen, Leonore, and weigh my words. We have gone too far for return ever to be possible, therefore we must press forward, steadily forward!
"Yes! Take me away from here anywhere at once! Look, Jim," she went on feverishly, "let bygones be bygones I won't peach! I won't tell on you though I had it in my heart when you gave me the go-by just now! I'll do anything you say go to your farthest hiding-place work for you only take me out of this cursed place." Her passionate pleading stung even through his selfishness and loathing.
He had no purpose in his descent from the rue Müller, he had no desire of vice as an antidote to pain, but his loathing of Paris was drawing him to her with that morbid craving to hurt and rehurt his bruised soul that assails the artist in times of misery. The streets were quiet, for it was scarcely nine o'clock, and as yet the lethargy of the day lay heavy on the air.
