Almost from the first day, it appeared as if Genifrede's fears all melted away in the presence of Moyse; and her mother became sure of this when, after grass enough had been procured, Genifrede continued to accompany Placide and Moyse in their almost daily expeditions for sporting and pleasure.
You will find more. Will you take Moyse with you?" "Let it be a proof that I can deny myself, that I leave my son with you. Moyse is passionate." "I know it," said Toussaint. "He governs both his love and his hatred before you, while with me he indulges them. He must remain with you, in order to command his passions. He inherited them from me; and I must thus far help him to master them.
Rank brings cares; so that one who is not a stoic may have an excuse for shrinking from it; but a stoic despises cares. Ha! we have some young soldiers here," he said, as Moyse and his cousins stood beside the way, to make their obeisance; "and very perfect soldiers they look, young as they are. They seem born for military service."
But two days ago how proud he was of you! and now Oh! Moyse, when you knew what depended on these few days, how could you fail?" "How was it that, he put me into an office that I was not fit for? He should have seen " "Then let us leave him, and all these affairs which make us so miserable. Let us go to your father. He will let us live at Saint Domingo in peace."
"Those whom I have spared were my personal foes; and I spared them not so much for the sake of their separate lives, as for the sake of the great principles for which I live and govern reconciliation and peace. For this end I pardoned them. For this end I condemn Moyse." "You make one tremble," said Therese, shuddering, "for one's very self.
You have striven to destroy her, body and soul, because you yourself were lost and now you curse a woman's cowardice and treachery! I leave you with Father Laxabon. Hasten to confess and cleanse your soul, Moyse; for never soul needed it more. I leave you my pity and my forgiveness, and I engage for Genifrede's." "Stop!" cried Moyse, "I have something to ask.
I went out to meet the insurgents; and the moment they saw that the whites were not to have their own way, they returned to quietness, and to their homes. Not another blow was struck." "And the murderers what did you do with them?" Moyse was silent for a moment, and then replied "Those may deal with them who desire to live side-by-side with whites.
"So was our friend Vincent there; but that is nothing to the purpose." "Well; who next?" cried Denis. "Do not encourage him," said Aimee. "My father would be vexed with you for training him to ridicule the French particularly the authorities." "Now we are blessed with Hedouville," pursued Moyse. "There you have him, Denis only scarcely sly, scarcely smooth enough.
"Well, I will go," said Therese, gently. "One kiss, Aimee, for Genifrede's sake!" "For your own," said Aimee, tenderly embracing her. "Bring back poor Genifrede! Tell her we will devote ourselves to her." "Bring back my child," said Margot. "Be sure you tell her that there may be good news yet. Moyse may have explanations to give; he may do great things yet."
This information was communicated to Hedouville, with a hint that the ships were nearly provisioned; but no answer was returned. Moyse sent word that the preparations in the town were nearly complete, and the spirit of the inhabitants improving every hour, if only the Commissary would make haste and be gone. Toussaint found the moment was coming for him to give the word to fire the alarm gun.
