“And you saw?”
“A man spying all about and who at last stopped at her door.”
“Was he alone?”
“Yes, at first. Afterwards he was joined by another, with a lantern in his hand.”
“Ah!”
“Then they began to talk together, and at last, tired of waiting, I went away. And before I venture into the house where I might be killed——”
“You would like one of your friends to try it.”
“They would not have my enemies, nor run the same risk; and then they might report to me——”
“In your place I would give up this woman.”
“No, she is too beautiful.”
