"If so, my daughter, tell him to go to the Portuguese embassy and see the Comte de Funcal, your father. I will be there." "But Monsieur de Maulincour has told him of Ferragus. Oh, father, what torture, to deceive, deceive, deceive!" "Need you say that to me? But only a few days more, and no living man will be able to expose me.

I have now come to ascertain from you the present residence of the extraordinary being who exercises such a baneful effect on your life and mine.
