Come； you will find a friend all yours in the skin of
H。 de Marsay。
As Paul de Manerville ended the reading of this letter； which fell
like the blows of a pickaxe on the edifice of his hopes； his
illusions； and his love； the vessel which bore him from France was
beyond the Azores。 In the midst of this utter devastation a cold and
impotent anger laid hold of him。
〃What had I done to them？〃 he said to himself。
That is the question of fools； of feeble beings； who； seeing nothing；
can nothing foresee。 Then he cried aloud： 〃Henri！ Henri！〃 to his loyal
friend。 Many a man would have gone mad； Paul went to bed and slept
that heavy sleep which follows immense disasters；the sleep that
seized Napoleon after Waterloo。
