Madame Boyer was at heart a woman of ardent and voluptuous passions that only wanted opportunity to become careless in their gratification. Her husband's long illness gave her such an opportunity. At the time of his death she was carrying on an intrigue with a bookseller's assistant, Leon Vitalis, a young man of twenty-one.
Even the catalytic properties of ferments are above the “ordinary” physical and chemical forces. The movement of crystallisation, too, cannot be compared with the vital movement. For vital force is not immanent in matter, but is always the product of previous life. In the simplest processes of growth and nutrition the vis vitalis plays its vital rôle.
I found him and he told me that he had loaned you to a musician named Vitalis and that you were tramping through France. I could not stay over there any longer, but I left Barberin some money and told him to search for you, and when he had news to write to Greth and Galley.
I could say nothing, for I did not know where we were, nor where we were going. "Let us walk for another five minutes and, if we do not see the trees, we will come back here. I might have made a mistake on the road." Now that I knew that we had gone astray, I seemed to have no more strength left. Vitalis pulled me by the arm. "Come, come." "I can't walk any farther."
And Capi, evidently understanding, proudly shook his tail. I was so hurt that I applied myself to the task with all my heart, and while the poor dog could get no farther than pulling out the four letters which spelled his name, I finally learned to read from a book. "Now that you know how to read words, how would you like to read music?" asked Vitalis.
"Come, Remi, hurry along, my child," said Vitalis. He took hold of my arm and I walked side by side with him. Fortunately he did not walk fast. I think he suited his step to mine. We were walking up hill. As I turned I could still see Mother Barberin's house, but it was getting smaller and smaller.
"That is true, but he is his master, and Remi belongs to him. For the time being, Remi must obey him. His parents rented him to Signor Vitalis, but I will write to them and see what I can do." "Oh, no, no, don't do that," I cried. "What do you mean?" "Oh, no, please don't." "But that is the only thing to do, my child." "Oh, please, please don't." If Mrs.
iv It seems strange how such a misconception could ever have arisen and coloured English literature to so great an extent, for if we turn to the pages of the contemporaneous historians, such as Henry of Huntingdon, William of Malmesbury, Florence of Worcester, Ordericus Vitalis born within the century of the Conquest we find that they all describe the Anglo-Saxons as English, not Saxons.
In the evening, when the shops had been closed, and he had been sent about his business, he waited and watched. In a short time he saw Vitalis and Marie Boyer leave the house, the former dragging a hand-cart containing two large parcels, while Marie walked by his side.
When I told him that if it were a real tail he would probably get a kick in the stomach or on his head, his imagination cooled somewhat. It was several years since I had arrived at Ussel with Vitalis, where he had bought me my first pair of shoes with nails. Alas! out of the six of us who started, Capi and I were the only ones left.
