La Vende

CHAPTER XII
22/25

He deserves from you that you should love him well, for he has proved to you that he loves you.

He--Henri Larochejaquelin--your own leader, begs you to forgive the crime of his adopted brother.

Have we not sufficient weight with you--are we not near enough to your hearts, to obtain from you this boon ?" "We will, we will," shouted they; "we will forgive--no, we won't forgive him, but we'll let him go; only, Mademoiselle, let him go from this--let him not show himself here any more.

There, lads, there's an end of it.
Give Momont back the rope.

We will do nothing to displease M.Henri and Mademoiselle Agatha," and then they gave three cheers for the inhabitants of Durbelliere; and Agatha, after thanking them for their kindness and their courtesy, returned into the house.
For some days after the attack and rescue, there was great confusion in the chateau of Durbelliere.
