I am sure that she has already won Madame Dammauville, and that she will be listened to with sympathy." "Do you wish me to write to her to come to see you tomorrow?" "No; it would be better for you so see her this evening, if possible." "I shall go to the Batignolles when I leave you." "She will enter into her part perfectly, I am certain, and she will succeed, I hope."
Georges was about to follow her but she commanded: "I forbid you to follow me," in a voice so loud that the passers-by crowded around her, and Duroy dared not stir for fear of a scandal.
