JEAN VALJEAN AND THE BISHOP
From "Les Misérables"
At the bishop's house, his housekeeper, Mme. Magloire was saying:
"We say that this house is not safe at all; and, if Monseigneur will permit me, I will go on and tell the locksmith to come and put the old bolts in the door again. I say, than a door which opens by a latch on the outside to the first comer, nothing could be more horrible; and then Monseigneur has the habit of always saying: 'Come in,' even at midnight. But, my goodness, there is no need to even ask leave——"
At this moment there was a violent knock on the door.
"Come in!" said the bishop.
The door opened.
