Laurent at the same time felt a sharp pricking sensation, as if needles were being thrust into the wound, and he hurriedly raised the collar of his shirt again. "Bah!" he exclaimed, "Therese will cure that. A few kisses will suffice. What a fool I am to think of these matters!" He put on his hat, and went downstairs. He wanted to be in the open air and walk.
"For how many shall the safe-conduct be?" asked Toussaint, who had also risen. "For yourself alone, or more?" "No one knows better than you," said Papalier, hastily, "that I have only one servant left," pointing again to the couch. "And," lowering his voice, so that Therese could not hear, "she, poor thing, is dreadfully altered, you see has never got over the loss of her child, that night."
The weight of the unexpended blow carried Dupont off his feet. He fell in a heap, and Mama Thérèse, charging wildly after Sofia, tripped on his body and deposited fourteen stone of solid flesh squarely in the small of Dupont's back with a force that drove the breath out of him in one agonized blast. Karslake laughed aloud: it was all as good as a cinema. Then he followed Sofia.

Cor. entre Marie Thérèse et le Comte Mercy-Argenteau, vol. iii. Nor was the Queen only to blame.
"That's Thérèse Auvernois, over there in the first row! The President of the Court gave her that seat; the officer who took the card of admission over to Querelles told me so." "That's where Mme. de Vibray lives, isn't it?" "Yes: she is sitting next to Thérèse now: that pretty woman in grey.
"The flood last summer did that," answered Therese; "walnut-trees can not stand wet." "And how are you both?" asked Timar, uneasily. Therese answered gently, "We are pretty well, I and the other two." "What do you mean? the other two?"
Frau Therese reminded Michael one day that he was tarrying long here; but he assured her that Master Fabula was looking after everything, and when Therese looked at Noémi, whose soft blue eyes ever turned like the sunflowers to the sun of Michael's face, she could only sigh, "Oh, how she loves him!"
