I
pray
you
,
be
seated
and
sup
how
you
please
.
You
will
I
trust
,
excuse
me
that
I
do
not
join
you
,
but
I
have
dined
already
,
and
I
do
not
sup
.

I
handed
to
him
the
sealed
letter
which
Mr.
Hawkins
had
entrusted
to
me
.
He
opened
it
and
read
it
gravely
.
Then
,
with
a
charming
smile
,
he
handed
it
to
me
to
read
.
One
passage
of
it
,
at
least
,
gave
me
a
thrill
of
pleasure
.

"
I
must
regret
that
an
attack
of
gout
,
from
which
malady
I
am
a
constant
sufferer
,
forbids
absolutely
any
travelling
on
my
part
for
some
time
to
come
.
But
I
am
happy
to
say
I
can
send
a
sufficient
substitute
,
one
in
whom
I
have
every
possible
confidence
.
He
is
a
young
man
,
full
of
energy
and
talent
in
his
own
way
,
and
of
a
very
faithful
disposition
.
He
is
discreet
and
silent
,
and
has
grown
into
manhood
in
my
service
.
He
shall
be
ready
to
attend
on
you
when
you
will
during
his
stay
,
and
shall
take
your
instructions
in
all
matters
.

The
count
himself
came
forward
and
took
off
the
cover
of
a
dish
,
and
I
fell
to
at
once
on
an
excellent
roast
chicken
.
105
This
,
with
some
cheese
and
a
salad
and
a
bottle
of
old
tokay
,
of
which
I
had
two
glasses
,
was
my
supper
.
During
the
time
I
was
eating
it
the
Count
asked
me
many
questions
as
to
my
journey
,
and
I
told
him
by
degrees
all
I
had
experienced
.
106
By
this
time
I
had
finished
my
supper
,
and
by
my
host
's
desire
had
drawn
up
a
chair
by
the
fire
and
begun
to
smoke
a
cigar
which
he
offered
me
,
at
the
same
time
excusing
himself
that
he
did
not
smoke
.
I
had
now
an
opportunity
of
observing
him
,
and
found
him
of
a
very
marked
physiognomy
.
107
His
face
was
a
strong
,
a
very
strong
,
aquiline
,
with
high
bridge
of
the
thin
nose
and
peculiarly
arched
nostrils
,
with
lofty
domed
forehead
,
and
hair
growing
scantily
round
the
temples
but
profusely
elsewhere
.
His
eyebrows
were
very
massive
,
almost
meeting
over
the
nose
,
and
with
bushy
hair
that
seemed
to
curl
in
its
own
profusion
.
The
mouth
,
so
far
as
I
could
see
it
under
the
heavy
moustache
,
was
fixed
and
rather
cruel-looking
,
with
peculiarly
sharp
white
teeth
.
These
protruded
over
the
lips
,
whose
remarkable
ruddiness
showed
astonishing
vitality
in
a
man
of
his
years
.
For
the
rest
,
his
ears
were
pale
,
and
at
the
tops
extremely
pointed
.
The
chin
was
broad
and
strong
,
and
the
cheeks
firm
though
thin
.
The
general
effect
was
one
of
extraordinary
pallor
.

Hitherto
I
had
noticed
the
backs
of
his
hands
as
they
lay
on
his
knees
in
the
firelight
,
and
they
had
seemed
rather
white
and
fine
.
But
seeing
them
now
close
to
me
,
I
could
not
but
notice
that
they
were
rather
coarse
,
broad
,
with
squat
fingers
.
Strange
to
say
,
there
were
hairs
in
the
centre
of
the
palm
.
The
nails
were
long
and
fine
,
and
cut
to
a
sharp
point
.
As
the
Count
leaned
over
me
and
his
hands
touched
me
,
I
could
not
repress
a
shudder
.
It
may
have
been
that
his
breath
was
rank
,
but
a
horrible
feeling
of
nausea
came
over
me
,
which
,
do
what
I
would
,
I
could
not
conceal
.
109
The
Count
,
evidently
noticing
it
,
drew
back
.
And
with
a
grim
sort
of
smile
,
which
showed
more
than
he
had
yet
done
his
protruberant
teeth
,
sat
himself
down
again
on
his
own
side
of
the
fireplace
.
We
were
both
silent
for
a
while
,
and
as
I
looked
towards
the
window
I
saw
the
first
dim
streak
of
the
coming
dawn
.
There
seemed
a
strange
stillness
over
everything
.
But
as
I
listened
,
I
heard
as
if
from
down
below
in
the
valley
the
howling
of
many
wolves
.
The
Count
's
eyes
gleamed
,
and
he
said
.
110
"
Listen
to
them
,
the
children
of
the
night
.
What
music
they
make
!
"
Seeing
,
I
suppose
,
some
expression
in
my
face
strange
to
him
,
he
added
,
"
Ah
,
sir
,
you
dwellers
in
the
city
can
not
enter
into
the
feelings
of
the
hunter
.
"
Then
he
rose
and
said
.
