The
lady
threw
on
her
daughter
a
glance
which
I
fancied
was
not
quite
so
affectionate
as
one
might
have
anticipated
from
the
beginning
of
the
scene
;
then
she
beckoned
slightly
to
my
father
,
and
withdrew
two
or
three
steps
with
him
out
of
hearing
;
and
talked
to
him
with
a
fixed
and
stern
countenance
,
not
at
all
like
that
with
which
she
had
hitherto
spoken
I
was
filled
with
wonder
that
my
father
did
not
seem
to
perceive
the
change
,
and
also
unspeakably
curious
to
learn
what
it
could
be
that
she
was
speaking
,
almost
in
his
ear
,
with
so
much
earnestness
and
rapidity
.
Two
or
three
minutes
at
most
I
think
she
remained
thus
employed
,
then
she
turned
,
and
a
few
steps
brought
her
to
where
her
daughter
lay
,
supported
by
Madame
Perrodon
.
She
kneeled
beside
her
for
a
moment
and
whispered
,
as
Madame
supposed
,
a
little
benediction
in
her
ear
;
then
hastily
kissing
her
she
stepped
into
her
carriage
,
the
door
was
closed
,
the
footmen
in
stately
liveries
jumped
up
behind
,
the
outriders
spurred
on
,
the
postilions
cracked
their
whips
,
the
horses
plunged
and
broke
suddenly
into
a
furious
canter
that
threatened
soon
again
to
become
a
gallop
,
and
the
carriage
whirled
away
,
followed
at
the
same
rapid
pace
by
the
two
horsemen
in
the
rear
.
We
followed
the
cortege
with
our
eyes
until
it
was
swiftly
lost
to
sight
in
the
misty
wood
;
and
the
very
sound
of
the
hoofs
and
the
wheels
died
away
in
the
silent
night
air
.
Nothing
remained
to
assure
us
that
the
adventure
had
not
been
an
illusion
of
a
moment
but
the
young
lady
,
who
just
at
that
moment
opened
her
eyes
.
I
could
not
see
,
for
her
face
was
turned
from
me
,
but
she
raised
her
head
,
evidently
looking
about
her
,
and
I
heard
a
very
sweet
voice
ask
complainingly
,
"
Where
is
mamma
?
"
Our
good
Madame
Perrodon
answered
tenderly
,
and
added
some
comfortable
assurances
.
I
then
heard
her
ask
:
"
Where
am
I
?
What
is
this
place
?
"
and
after
that
she
said
,
"
I
do
n't
see
the
carriage
;
and
Matska
,
where
is
she
?
"
Madame
answered
all
her
questions
in
so
far
as
she
understood
them
;
and
gradually
the
young
lady
remembered
how
the
misadventure
came
about
,
and
was
glad
to
hear
that
no
one
in
,
or
in
attendance
on
,
the
carriage
was
hurt
;
and
on
learning
that
her
mamma
had
left
her
here
,
till
her
return
in
about
three
months
,
she
wept
.
I
was
going
to
add
my
consolations
to
those
of
Madame
Perrodon
when
Mademoiselle
De
Lafontaine
placed
her
hand
upon
my
arm
,
saying
:
