It is said that the founding of this institution finally rooted out the idolatrous worship. On Monday we returned to Martigny, and obtained a voiture for Villeneuve. Drove through the beautiful Rhone valley, past the celebrated fall of the Pissevache, and about five o'clock reached the Hotel Byron, on the shore of the lake. Here I am, sitting at my window, overlooking Lake Leman.
Men in uniform go about shrieking "En voiture, messieurs, en voiture!" in a manner that suggests to the English traveller that the train is actually in motion, and that his passage is all but lost. It was this habitude that led to our excitement at Melun.
Baxter!" he said curtly, turning to his valet. And when Paul reached the station it was with the firmest of resolutions to hurry home, stopping only one night in Paris to break the tiresome journey. "En voiture!" the guards sang out, and Paul climbed into his carriage, once more the staid M. P. he thought But was he? Could he ever be again?
"Du tout, Madame, merci; j'ai trouvé une voiture qui m'a ramené jusqu'au Cheval de cuivre." "Jusqu'où?" dit la Reine avec effarement "Jusqu'au Cheval de cuivre, vous savez bien, au bout de Long Walk." "Mais ce n'est pas un cheval de cuivre: c'est mon grand-père."
"It is evident that there is no idea of any attempt being made to recapture the bridge at present, Mary; I don't know how you feel but I am getting desperately hungry, so I think we may as well be going back. I should like to see what is going on in the city. Will you come with me? I have no doubt we shall be able to get a voiture up at the arch, and we can have lunch there."

"I'll buy it at once," said he. "En voiture," cried the guard. Sypher put out his masterful hand. "Au revoir. Remember. We are friends. I never say what I don't mean." The train moved out of the station. Zora took her seat opposite Septimus. "I really believe he'll do it," she said. "What?" "Oh, something crazy," said Zora. "Tell me about the street row."
Nevertheless, I think I'll go home, if you don't mind." They descended the stairs and he called a little voiture. "I suppose it would sound silly," he ventured, after a time, "if I said anything more about thanking you?" "Ridiculous!" she replied. "But what are you going to do? Are you going to the police?" He shook his head.
The more early French writers are liable to the same reproach. Voiture, Balzac, even Coraeneille, have too much affected those ambitious ornaments, of which the Italians in general, and the least pure of the ancients, supplied them with so many models.
