"Oh! my lord; although she is very culpable, yet I cannot but pity her." "Yes; such an end would be frightful! And the Goualeuse?" "Set at liberty yesterday, my lord, supposed by the intervention of Madame d'Harville." "But it is impossible! Madame d'Harville begs me, on the contrary, to make the necessary arrangements to get her out of prison."
By a strange sympathy, the visit, so unexpected, so extraordinary, had awakened in both Murphy and Rudolph a certain vague and indefinite hope; but this hope seemed so extravagant, that neither one nor the other dared to avow it. Madame d'Harville, followed by Murphy, entered the cabinet.
His death was therefore attributed, and could only be attributed, to an imprudence. As to the resolution, an incurable despair had dictated it. "My death alone can dissolve these ties it must be I shall kill myself." And this is the reason why D'Harville had accomplished this grave and melancholy sacrifice. If a suitable law of divorce had existed, would he have committed suicide? No!
May the knowledge curse your last moments!" And he rushed from the house, leaving Sarah in a fainting condition. Meanwhile, the Marquise d'Harville, a friend of Rudolph's, learned by chance of the presence of La Goualeuse in the house of the doctor who had rescued her from the Seine.
Ignorant of the terrible drama that was passing at home, Madame d'Harville had gone to the prison, after having obtained some information from Madame de Lucenay concerning the two unhappy women whom the cupidity of Jacques Ferrand had plunged into distress. Madame de Blinval, one of the patronesses before spoken of, not being able to accompany Clemence to Saint Lazare, she came alone.
I am rich, but not as much so as I could wish, now that I see a new use for money; but, if it is necessary, I will speak to D'Harville; I will make him so happy that he cannot refuse any of my new caprices. Our protegees are proud, your highness says; I like them better for it: pride in misfortune always proves an elevated mind.
"Well! see my vanity, madame; whatever D'Harville might do, it would always be impossible for me to doubt his affection; but I ought not to say this. I am encouraging him in such conduct." "Believe me, your highness, that some unforeseen circumstances alone have prevented me from profiting oftener by your kindness toward me."
"Are you vexed that I go out this morning so early?" asked Madame d'Harville, quickly, astonished at the tone of his voice. "If you ask it, I will put off my visit to Madame de Lucenay."
"Ah, Philippe! ask M. Doublet to come to me." The servant retired. "Well! what is the matter?" asked D'Harville of Joseph, who looked at him with amazement. "I cannot get over it, sir! I never saw you so gay; and, besides, you, who are commonly so pale, have a fine color your eyes sparkle." "Happiness! old Joseph, happiness! Oh! now you must assist me in a scheme.
Well, D'Orbigny carries his kindness so far as to wish to convert a part of his fortune, and give me a considerable sum." "But his daughter his daughter?" cried Ferrand, with severity. "I ought to tell you that, for a year past, M. d'Harville has given me charge of his affairs. I have lately bought for him a magnificent property. You know my roughness in business.
