Early for such repast, but l'appetit vient en mangeant. Mind the coffee is hot." Enguerrand, always careful of each detail of dress, was especially so that morning, and especially gay, humming the old air, "Partant pour la Syrie." But his gaiety was checked when Raoul, taking from his breast a holy talisman, which he habitually wore there, suspended it with loving hands round his brother's neck.

L and Josephine understood me perfectly. "Eh! Monsieur de Vaud," said Josephine to the Swiss, whom we met on the landing-place of the stairs, "madame n'est elle pas coeffee a ravir aujourd'hui?

The Duke seized me by the arm, with a sudden air of excitement. Carford stepped forward and stood beside him. "Je viens, tu viens.... Yes! And any more?" cried the Duke.

Quelquefois ils volent a travers les arbres, et quelquefois ils couchent sur le gazon et autour de l'etang.
