At last he went off to St.Denoise, where he was to sup and sleep; but before going to bed he offered up supplications in a loud voice for the king, for M.de Villars, for M.de Lalande, and even for M.de Baville.
The next morning, Cavalier, according to promise, sent a copy of his demands to M.de Villars, who caused it to be laid before the king, along with a full report of all that had passed at the interview at Nimes.

As soon as the young chief had sent off his missive, he rejoined his troops at Tarnac, and related all that had passed to Roland, urging him to follow his example.

That night he slept at Sauves, having passed through Durfort at the head of his men; a captain of dragoons named Montgros, with twenty-five soldiers, accompanying him everywhere, by M.de Villars' orders, and seeing that the villages through which they passed furnished him with all that was needed.

They left Sauves on May 16th very early in the morning, in order to get to Calvisson, which, as our readers may remember, was the place appointed for the residence of Cavalier during the truce.

In passing through Quissac, where they stopped for refreshments, they were joined by Castanet who delivered a long sermon, at which all the Protestants of the neighbourhood were present.
The two battalions of the Charolais regiment which were quartered at Calvisson had received orders on the evening of the 17th to march out next morning, so as to make room for the Camisards.
On the 18th the head of the commissary department, Vincel, ordered suitable accommodation to be provided for Cavalier and his troops; the muster roll being in the hands of M.d'Aygaliers, it would be sent by him or brought in the course of the day.
