Brignan de Brignan, though certainly amused, kept his mirth within bounds, and replied: "Faith. I know not any young lady in your part of France who has a right to glory in my personal appearance, even if I were an Apollo, who, by the way, is not represented with moustaches. But I believe I know who this girl may be, I have met such a one in Paris, and avoided her as a pert little minx.
At least, thought I, I should see life, and perchance meet dangers, and so far be the gainer. And who knows but I might even come with credit out of the affair with Monsieur de Brignan? it is a world of strange turnings, and the upshot is always more or less different from what has been predicted. So I took heart, and already I began to feel I was not exactly the pale scholar of yesterday.
"I'm quite satisfied with my complexion, and I wouldn't exchange it for that of Brignan de Brignan. I dare say his face is red enough." "Yes, a most manly colour. And his broad shoulders and powerful arms and fine bold eyes ah! there is the picture of a hero and his superb moustaches " Now I was at the time not strong in respect of moustaches. I was extremely sensitive upon the point.
She occupied herself in good works for the poor about Montoire, and so two years passed, each day making her happier and more beautiful. Many times I went between La Tournoire and Paris, always by way of Montoire. In Paris I saw much of Brignan de Brignan, whose moustaches had soon grown back to their old magnitude. And one day whom should I meet in the Rue St.
Never in all my life, before or since, have I felt so alone. What was there for me to do now? All my care, all my heart, was with the solitary figure on horseback somewhere yonder in the forest. Had life any object for me elsewhere? Yes, faith! and I laughed ironically as it came back to my thoughts I might now go on to Paris and cut off the moustaches of Brignan de Brignan!
Just to show what your Brignan really amounts to, and whether I mean to be a monk, and what a reader of books can do when he likes, I have made up my mind to go to Paris; and there I will find your Brignan, and show my scorn of such an illiterate bravo, and cut off his famous moustaches, and bring them back to you for proof!
