Moreover, the revulsion of feeling consequent upon my disillusion was so tremendous, that I was swept entirely out of the region of the questions at issue, and both sides became indifferent to me, both camps dim and shadowy in the distance. I returned, therefore, to France, and settled down in a remote corner of the provinces, to exercise my profession as a country physician.
