When
anyone
displeased
mademoiselle
de
La
Mole
she
managed
to
punish
the
offender
by
a
jest
which
was
so
guarded
,
so
well
chosen
,
so
polite
and
so
neatly
timed
,
that
the
more
the
victim
thought
about
it
,
the
sorer
grew
the
wound
.
She
gradually
became
positively
terrible
to
wounded
vanity
.
As
she
attached
no
value
to
many
things
which
the
rest
of
her
family
very
seriously
wanted
,
she
always
struck
them
as
self
-
possessed
.
The
salons
of
the
aristocracy
are
nice
enough
to
brag
about
when
you
leave
them
,
but
that
is
all
;
mere
politeness
alone
only
counts
for
something
in
its
own
right
during
the
first
few
days
.
Julien
experienced
this
after
the
first
fascination
and
the
first
astonishment
had
passed
off
.
"
Politeness
,
"
he
said
to
himself
"
is
nothing
but
the
absence
of
that
bad
temper
which
would
be
occasioned
by
bad
manners
.
"
Mathilde
was
frequently
bored
;
perhaps
she
would
have
been
bored
anywhere
.
She
then
found
a
real
distraction
and
real
pleasure
in
sharpening
an
epigram
.
It
was
perhaps
in
order
to
have
more
amusing
victims
than
her
great
relations
,
the
academician
and
the
five
or
six
other
men
of
inferior
class
who
paid
her
court
,
that
she
had
given
encouragement
to
the
marquis
de
Croisenois
,
the
comte
Caylus
and
two
or
three
other
young
men
of
the
highest
rank
.
They
simply
represented
new
subjects
for
epigrams
.
We
will
admit
with
reluctance
,
for
we
are
fond
of
Mathilde
,
that
she
had
received
many
letters
from
several
of
them
and
had
sometimes
answered
them
.
We
hasten
to
add
that
this
person
constitutes
an
exception
to
the
manners
of
the
century
.
Lack
of
prudence
is
not
generally
the
fault
with
which
the
pupils
of
the
noble
convent
of
the
Sacred
Heart
can
be
reproached
.
One
day
the
marquis
de
Croisenois
returned
to
Mathilde
a
fairly
compromising
letter
which
she
had
written
the
previous
night
.
He
thought
that
he
was
thereby
advancing
his
cause
a
great
deal
by
taking
this
highly
prudent
step
.
But
the
very
imprudence
of
her
correspondence
was
the
very
element
in
it
Mathilde
liked
.
Her
pleasure
was
to
stake
her
fate
.
She
did
not
speak
to
him
again
for
six
weeks
.
She
amused
herself
with
the
letters
of
these
young
men
,
but
in
her
view
they
were
all
like
each
other
.
It
was
invariably
a
case
of
the
most
profound
,
the
most
melancholy
,
passion
.
"
They
all
represent
the
same
perfect
man
,
ready
to
leave
for
Palestine
,
"
she
exclaimed
to
her
cousin
.
"
Can
you
conceive
of
anything
more
insipid
?
So
these
are
the
letters
I
am
going
to
receive
all
my
life
!
There
can
only
be
a
change
every
twenty
years
according
to
the
kind
of
vogue
which
happens
to
be
fashionable
.
They
must
have
had
more
colour
in
them
in
the
days
of
the
Empire
.
In
those
days
all
these
young
society
men
had
seen
or
accomplished
feats
which
really
had
an
element
of
greatness
.
The
Duke
of
N
—
—
my
uncle
was
at
Wagram
.
"
"
What
brains
do
you
need
to
deal
a
sabre
blow
?
And
when
they
have
had
the
luck
to
do
that
they
talk
of
it
so
often
!
"
said
mademoiselle
de
Sainte
-
Hérédité
,
Mathilde
’
s
cousin
.
"
Well
,
those
tales
give
me
pleasure
.
Being
in
a
real
battle
,
a
battle
of
Napoleon
,
where
six
thousand
soldiers
were
killed
,
why
,
that
’
s
proof
of
courage
.
Exposing
one
’
s
self
to
danger
elevates
the
soul
and
saves
it
from
the
boredom
in
which
my
poor
admirers
seem
to
be
sunk
;
and
that
boredom
is
contagious
.
Which
of
them
ever
thought
of
doing
anything
extraordinary
?
They
are
trying
to
win
my
hand
,
a
pretty
business
to
be
sure
!
I
am
rich
and
my
father
will
procure
advancement
for
his
son
-
in
-
law
.
Well
!
I
hope
he
’
ll
manage
to
find
someone
who
is
a
little
bit
amusing
.
"
Mathilde
’
s
keen
,
sharp
and
picturesque
view
of
life
spoilt
her
language
as
one
sees
.
An
expression
of
hers
would
often
constitute
a
blemish
in
the
eyes
of
her
polished
friends
.
If
she
had
been
less
fashionable
they
would
almost
have
owned
that
her
manner
of
speaking
was
,
from
the
standpoint
of
feminine
delicacy
,
to
some
extent
unduly
coloured
.
