A
hundred
paces
from
the
picturesque
ruin
of
the
old
Gothic
church
,
M
.
de
Rênal
owns
an
old
château
with
its
four
towers
and
a
garden
designed
like
the
one
in
the
Tuileries
with
a
great
many
edging
verges
of
box
and
avenues
of
chestnut
trees
which
are
cut
twice
in
the
year
.
An
adjacent
field
,
crowded
with
apple
trees
,
served
for
a
promenade
.
Eight
or
ten
magnificent
walnut
trees
were
at
the
end
of
the
orchard
.
Their
immense
foliage
went
as
high
as
perhaps
eighty
feet
.
"
Each
of
these
cursed
walnut
trees
,
"
M
.
de
Rênal
was
in
the
habit
of
saying
,
whenever
his
wife
admired
them
,
"
costs
me
the
harvest
of
at
least
half
an
acre
;
corn
cannot
grow
under
their
shade
.
"
Madame
de
Rênal
found
the
sight
of
the
country
novel
:
her
admiration
reached
the
point
of
enthusiasm
.
The
sentiment
by
which
she
was
animated
gave
her
both
ideas
and
resolution
.
M
.
de
Rênal
had
returned
to
the
town
,
for
mayoral
business
,
two
days
after
their
arrival
in
Vergy
.
But
Madame
de
Rênal
engaged
workmen
at
her
own
expense
.
Julien
had
given
her
the
idea
of
a
little
sanded
path
which
was
to
go
round
the
orchard
and
under
the
big
walnut
trees
,
and
render
it
possible
for
the
children
to
take
their
walk
in
the
very
earliest
hours
of
the
morning
without
getting
their
feet
wet
from
the
dew
.
This
idea
was
put
into
execution
within
twenty
-
four
hours
of
its
being
conceived
.
Madame
de
Rênal
gaily
spent
the
whole
day
with
Julien
in
supervising
the
workmen
.
When
the
Mayor
of
Verrières
came
back
from
the
town
he
was
very
surprised
to
find
the
avenue
completed
.
His
arrival
surprised
Madame
de
Rênal
as
well
.
She
had
forgotten
his
existence
.
For
two
months
he
talked
with
irritation
about
the
boldness
involved
in
making
so
important
a
repair
without
consulting
him
,
but
Madame
de
Rênal
had
had
it
executed
at
her
own
expense
,
a
fact
which
somewhat
consoled
him
.
She
spent
her
days
in
running
about
the
orchard
with
her
children
,
and
in
catching
butterflies
.
They
had
made
big
hoods
of
clear
gauze
with
which
they
caught
the
poor
lepidoptera
.
This
is
the
barbarous
name
which
Julien
taught
Madame
de
Rênal
.
For
she
had
had
M
.
Godart
’
s
fine
work
ordered
from
Besançon
,
and
Julien
used
to
tell
her
about
the
strange
habits
of
the
creatures
.
They
ruthlessly
transfixed
them
by
means
of
pins
in
a
great
cardboard
box
which
Julien
had
prepared
.
Madame
de
Rênal
and
Julien
had
at
last
a
topic
of
conversation
;
he
was
no
longer
exposed
to
the
awful
torture
that
had
been
occasioned
by
their
moments
of
silence
.
They
talked
incessantly
and
with
extreme
interest
,
though
always
about
very
innocent
matters
.
This
gay
,
full
,
active
life
,
pleased
the
fancy
of
everyone
,
except
Mademoiselle
Elisa
who
found
herself
overworked
.
Madame
had
never
taken
so
much
trouble
with
her
dress
,
even
at
carnival
time
,
when
there
is
a
ball
at
Verrières
,
she
would
say
;
she
changes
her
gowns
two
or
three
times
a
day
.
As
it
is
not
our
intention
to
flatter
anyone
,
we
do
not
propose
to
deny
that
Madame
de
Rênal
,
who
had
a
superb
skin
,
arranged
her
gowns
in
such
a
way
as
to
leave
her
arms
and
her
bosom
very
exposed
.
She
was
extremely
well
made
,
and
this
style
of
dress
suited
her
delightfully
.
