"Sylvestre," I said to Lampron, who already had his hand upon the door-handle, "do you really think she will come?" "I hope so; but I will not answer for it. To make certain, some one must send word to her: 'Mademoiselle Jeanne, your portrait is at the Salon. If you know any one who would not mind taking this message to the Rue de l'Universite " "I'm afraid I don't."

But before that I shall go to his publisher's and find out something about this famous man's works, of which I know nothing whatever. December 31st He lives in the Rue de l'Universite. I have called. I have seen him. I owe this to an accident, to the servant's forgetting her orders.
One January afternoon I walked up and down the Rue de l'Universite eight times in succession, from No. 1 to No. 107, and from No. 107 to No. 1. Jeanne did not come out in spite of the brilliancy of the clear winter day. On the nineteenth of the same month I went to see Andromache, although the classic writers, whom I swear by, are not the writers I most care to hear.
He is almost as cheerful, and quite as communicative, and desirous of making all around him happy, as ever. His constancy, however, is not to be shaken, in one particular. I could wish it were! It pains me to recollect that he will persist, to the end of time, in thinking me his, by right! I cannot proceed!
