"I understand that, sir. I have made every preparation, and we will embark whenever you please."
"We?" the Count asked, in surprise.
"Yes, my lord, I shall accompany you."
"For what reason, may I ask?"
"To do you honour, sir—for no other reason."
"Very good," he said, thoughtfully; "let us go, then; but I have some traps here."
"They are already on board: come, sir."
The Major took up his valise and casket, and left the room, followed by the Count.
"Did I not tell you you would want your cloak?"
La Grenade said to M. de Barmont, with a bow, as he passed—"Pleasant voyage to you, sir, and good luck."
