The
superior
met
her
;
Milady
showed
her
the
cardinal
's
order
.
The
abbess
assigned
her
a
chamber
,
and
had
breakfast
served
.
All
the
past
was
effaced
from
the
eyes
of
this
woman
;
and
her
looks
,
fixed
on
the
future
,
beheld
nothing
but
the
high
fortunes
reserved
for
her
by
the
cardinal
,
whom
she
had
so
successfully
served
without
his
name
being
in
any
way
mixed
up
with
the
sanguinary
affair
.
The
ever-new
passions
which
consumed
her
gave
to
her
life
the
appearance
of
those
clouds
which
float
in
the
heavens
,
reflecting
sometimes
azure
,
sometimes
fire
,
sometimes
the
opaque
blackness
of
the
tempest
,
and
which
leave
no
traces
upon
the
earth
behind
them
but
devastation
and
death
.
After
breakfast
,
the
abbess
came
to
pay
her
a
visit
.
There
is
very
little
amusement
in
the
cloister
,
and
the
good
superior
was
eager
to
make
the
acquaintance
of
her
new
boarder
.

Milady
wished
to
please
the
abbess
.
This
was
a
very
easy
matter
for
a
woman
so
really
superior
as
she
was
.
She
tried
to
be
agreeable
,
and
she
was
charming
,
winning
the
good
superior
by
her
varied
conversation
and
by
the
graces
of
her
whole
personality
.
The
abbess
,
who
was
the
daughter
of
a
noble
house
,
took
particular
delight
in
stories
of
the
court
,
which
so
seldom
travel
to
the
extremities
of
the
kingdom
,
and
which
,
above
all
,
have
so
much
difficulty
in
penetrating
the
walls
of
convents
,
at
whose
threshold
the
noise
of
the
world
dies
away
.
Milady
,
on
the
contrary
,
was
quite
conversant
with
all
aristocratic
intrigues
,
amid
which
she
had
constantly
lived
for
five
or
six
years
.
She
made
it
her
business
,
therefore
,
to
amuse
the
good
abbess
with
the
worldly
practices
of
the
court
of
France
,
mixed
with
the
eccentric
pursuits
of
the
king
;
she
made
for
her
the
scandalous
chronicle
of
the
lords
and
ladies
of
the
court
,
whom
the
abbess
knew
perfectly
by
name
,
touched
lightly
on
the
amours
of
the
queen
and
the
Duke
of
Buckingham
,
talking
a
great
deal
to
induce
her
auditor
to
talk
a
little
.
But
the
abbess
contented
herself
with
listening
and
smiling
without
replying
a
word
.
Milady
,
however
,
saw
that
this
sort
of
narrative
amused
her
very
much
,
and
kept
at
it
;
only
she
now
let
her
conversation
drift
toward
the
cardinal
.

But
she
was
greatly
embarrassed
.
She
did
not
know
whether
the
abbess
was
a
royalist
or
a
cardinalist
;
she
therefore
confined
herself
to
a
prudent
middle
course
.
But
the
abbess
,
on
her
part
,
maintained
a
reserve
still
more
prudent
,
contenting
herself
with
making
a
profound
inclination
of
the
head
every
time
the
fair
traveler
pronounced
the
name
of
his
Eminence
.
Milady
began
to
think
she
should
soon
grow
weary
of
a
convent
life
;
she
resolved
,
then
,
to
risk
something
in
order
that
she
might
know
how
to
act
afterward
.
Desirous
of
seeing
how
far
the
discretion
of
the
good
abbess
would
go
,
she
began
to
tell
a
story
,
obscure
at
first
,
but
very
circumstantial
afterward
,
about
the
cardinal
,
relating
the
amours
of
the
minister
with
Mme.
d'Aiguillon
,
Marion
de
Lorme
,
and
several
other
gay
women
.
The
abbess
listened
more
attentively
,
grew
animated
by
degrees
,
and
smiled
.
