"Yes, this cross, reversed like the figure of the Hanged Man in the old-fashioned Tarot card deck, signifies that the priest Melchisedek must die in the Old Man that is, man affected by original sin and live again the Christ, to be powerful with the power of the Incarnate Word which died for us." Carhaix seemed ill at ease.
An excellent man named Psellus has revealed to us, in a book entitled De operatione Dæmonum, the fact that they tasted of the two excrements at the beginning of their ceremonial, and that they mixed human semen with the host." "Horrible!" exclaimed Carhaix. "Oh, as they took both kinds of communion, they did better than that," returned Des Hermies.
Carhaix, your cooking tempts us to the sin of gluttony If you keep on you will make perfect pigs of us." "Oh, you are joking. I wonder what is keeping Louis." "Somebody is coming upstairs," said Durtal, hearing the creaking of shoes in the tower. "No, it isn't his step," and she went and opened the door. "It's Monsieur Gévingey."
The machinery will be run by electricity and we shall have real up-to-date, timbreless, Protestant peals." "Then Carhaix's wife will have a chance to go back to Finistère." "No, they are too poor, and then too Carhaix would be broken-hearted if he lost his bells. Curious, a man's affection for the object that he manipulates. The mechanic's love for his machine.
"Any news of the election?" and Gévingey took out his pipe and filled it. "No. In this quarter we shan't know the results until nearly ten o'clock. There's no doubt about the outcome, though, because Paris is strong for this democratic stuff. General Boulanger will win hands down." "This certainly is the age of universal imbecility." Carhaix entered and apologized for being so late.
Gilbert wasn't a 'labourer, either. He was an enthusiastic collector of documents relating to old Paris. From Notre Dame Carhaix came to Saint Sulpice, fifteen years ago, and has been there ever since." "How did you happen to make his acquaintance?" "First he was my patient, then my friend. I've known him ten years." "Funny. He doesn't look like a seminary product.
Suddenly on their talk there broke and Michel trembled anew as he heard it a loud knocking at the door. All started and stood listening and waiting. A voice cried: "Open! open! in the name of the law!" "We have lingered too long," Barbaroux muttered. "I should have thought of this. It is the Mayor of Carhaix come to apprehend our friend." Again the Girondins conferred together.
Carhaix served the broth, and everyone was silent, taking spoonfuls of the cooler broth at the edge of the bowl. Then madame brought Des Hermies the famous leg of mutton to cut. It was a magnificent red, and large drops flowed beneath the knife. Everybody ecstasized when tasting this robust meat, aromatic with a purée of turnips sweetened with caper sauce.
"But," said Durtal, somewhat disappointed, "it isn't what shall I say? very profound." The door opened. "Why, how are you!" said Carhaix, shaking hands with Gévingey, and then introducing him to Durtal. While the bell-ringer's wife finished setting the table, Durtal examined the newcomer.
Only the form of his sins varies. Progress is the hypocrisy which refines the vices." "All the more reason," Carhaix rejoined, "why society if it is as you have described it should fall to pieces. I, too, think it is putrefied, its bones ulcerated, its flesh dropping off. It can neither be poulticed nor cured, it must be interred and a new one born. And who but God can accomplish such a miracle?"
