The motto read "Revenez bientôt," and smiling at the omen, Count Victor once more took his valour in his fingers and turned the handle.

The sentence froze on his lips when he saw the Duchess seated in a chair, and turned half round to look at him.
The Marquis stood there glowering, and never offered to dance with Victorine; she must have been cross! We had another farewell all round when the valse was over Godmamma would not stay for another, and even "Antoine" seemed sorry to say "Adieu."

I replied that I had brought a letter from the British Embassy, and he may perhaps have thought that I was an Embassy messenger. At all events, he took the letter from me, saying curtly: "C'est bien, je m'en occuperai, revenez cet apres-midi."

"Vous m'excuserez, mais vous voyez.... Revenez vers dix heures, encore mieux demain." "Qu'elle sorte!" repeated the Frenchman impatiently. "C'est moi, n'est-ce pas?"
Again Monsieur Philomène cleared his voice, and suffered a pensive languor to cloud his manly brow. "Revenez, revenez, beaux jours de mon enfance," he began, in a small, tremulous, fluty voice. "They'll have a long road to travel back, parbleu!" muttered Müller. "De votre aspect riant charmer ma souvenance!" Here Mdlle.

Il a joui pendant vingt-cinq ans de ce que j'ai moi-meme appele le bonheur parfait, l'amour dans le mariage. Il reste seul avec ses sept enfants. Revenez nous voir. Je n'ai pas le coeur a vous parler d'autre chose. Je n'ai pas encore recu 'l'Edinburgh Review' des mois d'octobre et janvier dernier. Je les fais demander. Je vis aussi en Angleterre.
Que la paix enfin nous rallie! Plus d'ingrats ni de mecontens, O triomphe de la patrie! Plus de Francais indifferens. bis. "Revenez phalanges guerrieres, Heros vengeurs de mon pays, Au sein d'une epouse, d'un pere, De vos parens, de vos amis, Revenez dans votre patrie Apres tant d'effrayans hazards, Trouver ce qui charme la vie, L'amitie, l'amour, et les arts. bis.
