Then turning to the young man he exclaimed: "A fine prize! a fine prize, friend Mordaunt; we have both myself and Monsieur du Vallon, taken two Knights of the Garter, nothing less." "But," said Mordaunt, looking at Athos and Aramis with bloodshot eyes, "these are Frenchmen, I imagine." "I'faith, I don't know. Are you French, sir?" said he to Athos. "I am," replied the latter, gravely.
No, in truth you are no visionary, my dear friend, and now I think of it you yes, i'faith, you're right those delicate, yet firm-set lips, those eyes which seem always at the command of the intellect and never of the heart! Yes, it is one of Milady's bastards!" "You laugh Aramis." "From habit, that is all. I swear to you, I like no better than yourself to meet that viper in my path."
If you are not for me, avaunt! avoid, Satan! Well, what say you? I'faith, I begin to smell you out. You are not yet disposed to give me an answer; nor I neither, by these whiskers.
'So natural! d'ye see now, neighbours? The ring, i'faith. To have and to hold! Right again; well play'd, doctor; well play'd, son Thomas. Come, come, I'm satisfied. Now for the fiddles and dances. And so are we now, then, for the fiddles and dances!
Mazarin smiled, but became very pale. "And you did cry?" he asked. "I'faith, no," said D'Artagnan; "I was not in voice; Monsieur du Vallon has a cold and did not cry either.

My hope of liberty, I fancy, would be clouded; and I would be remitted again to the care of Captain Wallace, who keepeth the town and the Mayor's daughter from the spoiling arms of the robber Humes." "Ha! ha!" replied he "thy father wanteth not a Mayor's wits, Isabella, in offering thee as a prize to the Governor of the town. Excellent device, i'faith!
But, prithee, tell thy fellow to help the youngster." "What!" replied Smith, "d'ye think I am mad? Ask Tom Beacon Tom of Newmarket Tom of ten thousand, to touch such a four-legged brute as that? Why, he would turn me away on the spot discard me, i'faith.
"If he does, you'll admit that he will hang on the gallows that he has built himself although intended for another. I'faith! He's not the first booby to be caught in his own springe. There is in this a measure of poetic justice. Poetry and justice! Do you know, Ruth, they are two things I have ever loved?" And he took a pinch of choice Bergamot. "Will you be serious?" she demanded.
"Would it be better to remain here," said Athos, "and take a turn in the Bastile or the dungeon of Vincennes for having favored the escape of Monsieur de Beaufort? I'faith, Aramis, believe me, there is little left to regret. We avoid imprisonment and we play the part of heroes; the choice is easy."
