But
while
we
were
considering
this
,
there
came
in
four
French
gentlemen
,
who
having
been
stopped
on
the
French
side
of
the
passes
,
as
we
were
on
the
Spanish
,
had
found
out
a
guide
,
who
,
traversing
the
country
near
the
head
of
Languedoc
,
had
brought
them
over
the
mountains
by
such
ways
that
they
were
not
much
incommoded
by
the
snow
;
and
were
they
met
with
snow
in
any
quantity
,
they
said
it
was
frozen
hard
enough
to
bear
them
and
their
horses
.
We
sent
for
his
guide
,
who
told
us
he
would
undertake
to
carry
us
the
same
way
with
no
hazard
from
the
snow
,
provided
we
were
armed
sufficiently
to
protect
us
from
wild
beasts
;
for
he
said
,
upon
these
great
snows
it
was
frequent
for
some
wolves
to
show
themselves
at
the
foot
of
the
mountains
,
being
made
ravenous
for
want
of
food
,
the
ground
being
covered
with
snow
.
We
told
him
we
were
well
enough
prepared
for
such
creatures
as
they
were
,
if
he
would
ensure
us
from
a
kind
of
two-legged
wolves
,
which
,
we
were
told
,
we
were
in
the
most
danger
from
,
especially
on
the
French
side
of
the
mountains
.
He
satisfied
us
there
was
no
danger
of
that
kind
in
the
way
that
we
were
to
go
;
so
we
readily
agreed
to
follow
him
,
as
did
also
twelve
other
gentlemen
,
with
their
servants
,
some
French
,
some
Spanish
,
who
,
as
I
said
,
had
attempted
to
go
,
and
were
obliged
to
come
back
again
.

Accordingly
,
we
all
set
out
from
Pampeluna
,
with
our
guide
,
on
the
15th
of
November
;
and
,
indeed
,
I
was
surprised
when
,
instead
of
going
forward
,
he
came
directly
back
with
us
on
the
same
road
that
we
came
from
Madrid
,
above
twenty
miles
;
when
being
passed
two
rivers
,
and
come
into
the
plain
country
,
we
found
ourselves
in
a
warm
climate
again
,
where
the
country
was
pleasant
,
and
no
snow
to
be
seen
;
but
on
a
sudden
,
turning
to
his
left
,
he
approached
the
mountains
another
way
;
and
though
it
is
true
the
hills
and
precipices
looked
dreadful
,
yet
he
made
so
many
tours
,
such
meanders
,
and
led
us
by
such
winding
ways
,
that
we
were
insensibly
passed
the
height
of
the
mountains
without
being
much
encumbered
with
the
snow
;
and
all
on
a
sudden
he
showed
us
the
pleasant
fruitful
provinces
of
Languedoc
and
Gascogn
,
all
green
and
flourishing
,
though
,
indeed
,
it
was
at
a
great
distance
,
and
we
had
some
rough
way
to
pass
yet
.
We
were
a
little
uneasy
,
however
,
when
we
found
it
snowed
one
whole
day
and
a
night
so
fast
that
we
could
not
travel
;
but
he
bid
us
be
easy
,
we
should
soon
be
past
it
all
.
We
found
,
indeed
,
that
we
began
to
descend
every
day
,
and
to
come
more
north
than
before
;
and
so
,
depending
upon
our
guide
,
we
went
on
.
It
was
about
two
hours
before
night
when
,
our
guide
being
something
before
us
,
and
not
just
in
sight
,
out
rushed
three
monstrous
wolves
,
and
after
them
a
bear
,
out
of
a
hollow
way
adjoining
to
a
thick
wood
.
Two
of
the
wolves
flew
upon
the
guide
,
and
had
he
been
half
a
mile
before
us
he
had
been
devoured
,
indeed
,
before
we
could
have
helped
him
.
One
of
them
fastened
upon
his
horse
,
and
the
other
attacked
the
man
with
that
violence
that
he
had
not
time
,
or
not
presence
of
mind
enough
,
to
draw
his
pistol
,
but
hallooed
and
cried
out
to
us
most
lustily
.
My
man
Friday
being
next
to
me
,
I
bid
him
ride
up
,
and
see
what
was
the
matter
.
As
soon
as
Friday
came
in
sight
of
the
man
,
he
hallooed
as
loud
as
t
'
other
,
"
O
master
!
O
master
!
"
but
,
like
a
bold
fellow
,
rode
directly
up
to
the
poor
man
,
and
with
his
pistol
shot
the
wolf
that
attacked
him
into
the
head
.

It
was
happy
for
the
poor
man
that
it
was
my
man
Friday
,
for
he
having
been
used
to
that
kind
of
creature
in
his
country
,
had
no
fear
upon
him
,
but
went
close
up
to
him
and
shot
him
,
as
above
;
whereas
any
of
us
would
have
fired
at
a
farther
distance
,
and
have
perhaps
either
missed
the
wolf
,
or
endangered
shooting
the
man
.
But
it
was
enough
to
have
terrified
a
bolder
man
than
I
;
and
,
indeed
,
it
alarmed
all
our
company
,
when
,
with
the
noise
of
Friday
's
pistol
,
we
heard
on
both
sides
the
dismallest
howling
of
wolves
;
and
the
noise
,
redoubled
by
the
echo
of
the
mountains
,
that
it
was
to
us
as
if
there
had
been
a
prodigious
multitude
of
them
;
and
perhaps
indeed
there
was
not
such
a
few
as
that
we
had
no
cause
of
apprehensions
.
However
,
as
Friday
had
killed
this
wolf
,
the
other
that
had
fastened
upon
the
horse
left
him
immediately
and
fled
,
having
happily
fastened
upon
his
head
,
where
the
bosses
of
the
bridle
had
stuck
in
his
teeth
,
so
that
he
had
not
done
him
much
hurt
.
The
man
,
indeed
,
was
most
hurt
;
for
the
raging
creature
had
bit
him
twice
,
once
on
the
arm
,
and
the
other
time
a
little
above
his
knee
;
and
he
was
just
,
as
it
were
,
tumbling
down
by
the
disorder
of
his
horse
,
when
Friday
came
up
and
shot
the
wolf
.
