Name to me such of your workmen as you need, and point out the tools they must bring." The goldsmith knew the duke.

He knew all objection would be useless, and instantly determined how to act.
"May I be permitted to inform my wife ?" said he.
"Oh, you may even see her if you like, my dear Mr.O'Reilly.

Your captivity shall be mild, be assured; and as every inconvenience deserves its indemnification, here is, in addition to the price of the studs, an order for a thousand pistoles, to make you forget the annoyance I cause you." D'Artagnan could not get over the surprise created in him by this minister, who thus open-handed, sported with men and millions.
As to the goldsmith, he wrote to his wife, sending her the order for the thousand pistoles, and charging her to send him, in exchange, his most skillful apprentice, an assortment of diamonds, of which he gave the names and the weight, and the necessary tools.
Buckingham conducted the goldsmith to the chamber destined for him, and which, at the end of half an hour, was transformed into a workshop.

Then he placed a sentinel at each door, with an order to admit nobody upon any pretense but his VALET DE CHAMBRE, Patrick.

We need not add that the goldsmith, O'Reilly, and his assistant, were prohibited from going out under any pretext.
