The church is always kept locked.

A broad handsome terrace, with a prospect over the sea, the town of Lavalette, and the whole island, forms the foreground of the picture.

This terrace and the ramparts behind the houses form very agreeable walks.

The courtyard of our prison is very spacious, and we are allowed to walk about in it as far as a statue which stands in the middle.

Until ten o'clock at night we enjoy our liberty; but when this hour arrives, we are sent to our respective rooms and locked up.
