"Just recovering. After that duel, or whatever it may be called with Weisspriess, he lay all night out on the mountains. He managed to get the help of a couple of fellows, who led him at dusk into Meran, saw an Italian name over a shop, and—I will say for them that the rascals hold together. There he is, at all events."
"Would you denounce a sick man, Wilfrid?"
"I certainly cannot forget my duty upon every point"
"You are changed!"
"Changed! Am I the only one who is changed?"
"He must have supposed that it would be Merthyr. I remember speaking of Merthyr to him as our unchangeable friend. I told him Merthyr would be here."
"Instead of Merthyr, he had the misfortune to see your changeable friend, if you will have it so."
"But how can it be your duty to denounce him, Wilfrid. You have quitted that army."
"Have I? I have forfeited my rank, perhaps."
"And Angelo is not guilty of a military offence."
