Alas, at the end of a year those priests, till then so quiet and humble, were torn by frightful schisms, plunged into a thousand errors against the Catholic truth, their days filled with disorder, and their souls with sedition! Sulpice inspired the brothers with this poison.

"I mean that not every one has the chance to make ten francs a day." The vague fears of Glady became definite at these words. They had walked down the Rue Ferou and reached the Place St. Sulpice. "I think that at last I am going to find a cab," he said, precipitately. But this hope was not realized; there was not a single cab at the station, and he was forced to submit to the assault from Saniel.

The storm had ceased; in the buoyant, limpid air the birds were calling loudly to one another. The smiling earth was green. Modernus having fetched the mules, Bishop Nicolas mounted his, and carried Maxime wrapped in his cloak: the deacon took Sulpice and Robin upon his crupper, and they set off toward the city of Trinqueballe.
