We will conduct the reader to the house in the Rue du Temple, the day of the suicide of M. d'Harville, about three o'clock in the afternoon. Pipelet, the porter, alone in the lodge, was occupied in mending a boot. The chaste porter was dejected and melancholy.
Rudolph smiled, as he foresaw some new trick on the part of Miss Dimpleton's former neighbor. "Alfred, answer me; do not remain dumb you alarm me," said Mrs. Pipelet; "let us get you up. Why will you think on that beggarly fellow? You know that, when you think of him, it has the same effect on you as when you eat cabbage it fills up your gizzard, and stifles you!"
My young relative called upon me; I consented to give him enough to return to his mother, but on condition that he should leave this girl here, and I would endeavor to place her." "I could not have done better for my own son, if Pipelet had been pleased to grant me one."
"Cabrion!!!" cried M. Pipelet, respiring and inhaling the air with inexpressible satisfaction, as if he had been relieved from an enormous weight. "He leaves France forever forever for perpetuity in fine, he is gone." "You are very sure of it?"
Your child's body will remain in the garret, where it shall to-night, as is customary, be attended and watched by a priest. I will go and request M. Pipelet to undertake the management of these sad duties." "But, sir, it is not necessary to deprive you of your room.
This man, ordinarily with so much self-command, so calm, and cunning, forgot the cold calculations of his profound dissimulation when the demon of lust obscured his mind. Besides he had no reason to suspect the protegee of Madame Pipelet.
Seraphin, much annoyed; "but I have something else to say to you, my dear Mrs. Pipelet. You know what has happened to this wench of a Louise, whom every one thought so virtuous?" "Don't speak of it," answered Mrs. Pipelet, raising her eyes with compunction, "it makes my hair stand on end."
"But what has happened, Mrs. Pipelet?" asked Rudolph, following the portress, who returned to the lodge. "How should I know, my worthy sir? I left home to go to the mayor's, the church, and the cook-shop, to prevent Alfred from tiring himself. I returned; what did I see? the dear old man with his legs and arms all in the air!
Pipelet had not a very extended or elevated mind; his imagination was not the most lively nor the most poetical, but he possessed a very solid, very logical, very common sense.
"Will you take care what you are about up there, you old baggage!" "Alfred!" retorted Mrs. Pipelet, bawling in a voice sharp enough to split the tympanum of a deaf man. "Alfred! have at 'em, old darling! They wanted to behave improperly to thy 'Stasie! Those rascals would take liberties with me! Pitch into them with your broom! call the oyster-woman and the potboy next door to help you.
