I have at the same time attended to the laws of interest and duty in replacing Messieurs Lyodot and D'Eymeris in the hands of the archers." "Then it was you who threw the man out of the window?" "It was I, myself," replied D'Artagnan, modestly. "And you who killed Menneville?" "I had that misfortune," said D'Artagnan, bowing like a man who is being congratulated.
"A sentence?" said the superintendent, with a shudder and pallor he could not conceal. "A sentence! and on whom?" "Two of your best friends." "Lyodot and D'Eymeris, do you mean? But what sort of a sentence?" "Sentence of death." "Passed? Oh! you must be mistaken, Gourville; that is impossible." "Here is a copy of the sentence which the king is to sign to-day, if he has not already signed it."

"MM. d'Eymeris and Lyodot," said D'Artagnan. "Do you know these names, Aramis?" "No," said the prelate, disdainfully; "they sound like the names of financiers." "Exactly; so they were." "Oh! M. Fouquet allows his friends to be hanged, then," said Porthos. "And why not?" said Aramis. "Why, it seems to me " "If these culprits were hanged, it was by order of the king.
"D'Eymeris and Lyodot!" cried Fouquet, reading the paper eagerly again. "Friends of M. F.," pointed the marquise with her finger. "But what is the meaning of these words: 'To be condemned by the Chamber of Justice'?" "Dame!" said the marquise, "that is clear enough, I think. Besides, that is not all.
Unfortunately, before he can reach me, that is to say, the body of the place, he must destroy, must make a breach in the advanced works, and I am devilishly well fortified, marquise." "What you call your advanced works are your creatures, are they not your friends?" "Exactly so." "And is M. d'Eymeris one of your creatures?" "Yes, he is." "Is M. Lyodot one of your friends?" "Certainly."
"'M. Colbert, she added, 'came to me two hours ago, to inform me he was appointed intendant." "I have already told you marquise, that M. Colbert would only be the more in my power for that." "Yes, but that is not all: Marguerite is intimate, as you know, with Madame d'Eymeris and Madame Lyodot." "I know it."
You have seen M. d'Artagnan in Paris, have you not?" "Certes, and think him a man of intelligence, and even a man of heart; although he did bring about the death of our dear friends, Lyodot and D'Eymeris." "Alas! yes, I heard of that. At Tours I met the courier who was bringing the letter from Gourville, and the dispatches from Pelisson. Have you seriously reflected on that event, monsieur?"
"That is well: but would these bandits attack an armed force?" "They are used to that." "Then get your hundred and twenty men together, abbe." "Directly. But where?" "On the road to Vincennes, to-morrow, at two o'clock precisely." "To carry off Lyodot and D'Eymeris? There will be blows to be got!" "A number, no doubt; are you afraid?" "Not for myself, but for you."
"Then, when she was assured I was your devoted friend, she gave me the paper, and told me the secret of this house." "And this paper?" said Fouquet, in some degree of agitation. "Here it is, monsieur read it," said the marquise. Fouquet read: "Names of the farmers of revenue to be condemned by the Chamber of Justice: D'Eymeris, friend of M. F.; Lyodot, friend of M. F.; De Vanin, indif."
