Of
course
not
--
of
course
not
!
--
bah
!
The
criminal
was
a
fine
intelligent
fearless
man
;
Le
Gros
was
his
name
;
and
I
may
tell
you
--
believe
it
or
not
,
as
you
like
--
that
when
that
man
stepped
upon
the
scaffold
he
cried
,
he
did
indeed
,
--
he
was
as
white
as
a
bit
of
paper
.
172
Is
n't
it
a
dreadful
idea
that
he
should
have
cried
--
cried
!
Whoever
heard
of
a
grown
man
crying
from
fear
--
not
a
child
,
but
a
man
who
never
had
cried
before
--
a
grown
man
of
forty-five
years
.
Imagine
what
must
have
been
going
on
in
that
man
's
mind
at
such
a
moment
;
what
dreadful
convulsions
his
whole
spirit
must
have
endured
;
it
is
an
outrage
on
the
soul
that
's
what
it
is
.
Because
it
is
said
'
thou
shalt
not
kill
,
'
is
he
to
be
killed
because
he
murdered
some
one
else
?
No
,
it
is
not
right
,
it
's
an
impossible
theory
.
I
assure
you
,
I
saw
the
sight
a
month
ago
and
it
's
dancing
before
my
eyes
to
this
moment
.
I
dream
of
it
,
often
.

The
prince
had
grown
animated
as
he
spoke
,
and
a
tinge
of
colour
suffused
his
pale
face
,
though
his
way
of
talking
was
as
quiet
as
ever
.
The
servant
followed
his
words
with
sympathetic
interest
.
Clearly
he
was
not
at
all
anxious
to
bring
the
conversation
to
an
end
.
Who
knows
?
Perhaps
he
too
was
a
man
of
imagination
and
with
some
capacity
for
thought
.

"
Well
,
at
all
events
it
is
a
good
thing
that
there
's
no
pain
when
the
poor
fellow
's
head
flies
off
,
"
he
remarked
.
175
"
Do
you
know
,
though
,
"
cried
the
prince
warmly
,
"
you
made
that
remark
now
,
and
everyone
says
the
same
thing
,
and
the
machine
is
designed
with
the
purpose
of
avoiding
pain
,
this
guillotine
I
mean
;
but
a
thought
came
into
my
head
then
:
what
if
it
be
a
bad
plan
after
all
?
You
may
laugh
at
my
idea
,
perhaps
--
but
I
could
not
help
its
occurring
to
me
all
the
same
.
176
Now
with
the
rack
and
tortures
and
so
on
--
you
suffer
terrible
pain
of
course
;
but
then
your
torture
is
bodily
pain
only
(
although
no
doubt
you
have
plenty
of
that
)
until
you
die
.
But
here
I
should
imagine
the
most
terrible
part
of
the
whole
punishment
is
,
not
the
bodily
pain
at
all
--
but
the
certain
knowledge
that
in
an
hour
,
--
then
in
ten
minutes
,
then
in
half
a
minute
,
then
now
--
this
very
instant
--
your
soul
must
quit
your
body
and
that
you
will
no
longer
be
a
man
--
and
that
this
is
certain
,
certain
!
That
's
the
point
--
the
certainty
of
it
.
Just
that
instant
when
you
place
your
head
on
the
block
and
hear
the
iron
grate
over
your
head
--
then
--
that
quarter
of
a
second
is
the
most
awful
of
all
.
177
"
This
is
not
my
own
fantastical
opinion
--
many
people
have
thought
the
same
;
but
I
feel
it
so
deeply
that
I
'll
tell
you
what
I
think
.
I
believe
that
to
execute
a
man
for
murder
is
to
punish
him
immeasurably
more
dreadfully
than
is
equivalent
to
his
crime
.
A
murder
by
sentence
is
far
more
dreadful
than
a
murder
committed
by
a
criminal
.
The
man
who
is
attacked
by
robbers
at
night
,
in
a
dark
wood
,
or
anywhere
,
undoubtedly
hopes
and
hopes
that
he
may
yet
escape
until
the
very
moment
of
his
death
.
There
are
plenty
of
instances
of
a
man
running
away
,
or
imploring
for
mercy
--
at
all
events
hoping
on
in
some
degree
--
even
after
his
throat
was
cut
.

But
in
the
case
of
an
execution
,
that
last
hope
--
having
which
it
is
so
immeasurably
less
dreadful
to
die
,
--
is
taken
away
from
the
wretch
and
certainty
substituted
in
its
place
!
There
is
his
sentence
,
and
with
it
that
terrible
certainty
that
he
can
not
possibly
escape
death
--
which
,
I
consider
,
must
be
the
most
dreadful
anguish
in
the
world
.
You
may
place
a
soldier
before
a
cannon
's
mouth
in
battle
,
and
fire
upon
him
--
and
he
will
still
hope
.
But
read
to
that
same
soldier
his
death-sentence
,
and
he
will
either
go
mad
or
burst
into
tears
.
Who
dares
to
say
that
any
man
can
suffer
this
without
going
mad
?
No
,
no
!
it
is
an
abuse
,
a
shame
,
it
is
unnecessary
--
why
should
such
a
thing
exist
?
Doubtless
there
may
be
men
who
have
been
sentenced
,
who
have
suffered
this
mental
anguish
for
a
while
and
then
have
been
reprieved
;
perhaps
such
men
may
have
been
able
to
relate
their
feelings
afterwards
.
Our
Lord
Christ
spoke
of
this
anguish
and
dread
.
No
!
no
!
no
!
No
man
should
be
treated
so
,
no
man
,
no
man
!

The
servant
,
though
of
course
he
could
not
have
expressed
all
this
as
the
prince
did
,
still
clearly
entered
into
it
and
was
greatly
conciliated
,
as
was
evident
from
the
increased
amiability
of
his
expression
.
"
If
you
are
really
very
anxious
for
a
smoke
,
"
he
remarked
,
"
I
think
it
might
possibly
be
managed
,
if
you
are
very
quick
about
it
.
You
see
they
might
come
out
and
inquire
for
you
,
and
you
would
n't
be
on
the
spot
.
You
see
that
door
there
?
Go
in
there
and
you
'll
find
a
little
room
on
the
right
;
you
can
smoke
there
,
only
open
the
window
,
because
I
ought
not
to
allow
it
really
,
and
--
.

But
there
was
no
time
,
after
all
.
