Et, comme par mégarde, elle approcha sa joue fraîche, si proche du grillage que Cornélius put la toucher de ses lèvres. Rosa poussa un petit cri d'amour et disparut.

Rosa came each evening.

Outside the main current of the plot Daudet sketches one of the little dramas of humble life of which he was so fond: the story of Delobelle, an impoverished actor who lives for his art while his devoted wife and daughter Désirée patiently ply the needle to earn bread. Daudet up to this time had been recognized as the greatest of French short-story writers.
The purely romantic element of the work is found in the story of Paul de Géry and the Joyeuse family, a secondary plot having no vital connection with the main story. In "Les Rois en exil" Daudet explores a new vein in contemporary society.
