Part 9 (2/2)

Master Raoul will not go to bed, Madam.

LIONNETTE.

Very well; I am coming.

(_She goes out by the door from which_ JANE _has spoken to her_.)

TReVELe (_to_ G.o.dLER).

Again running away! that is too strong. This time, let us go too.

NOURVADY.

No, remain; I think you will be wanted here. Good bye. (_He goes away._)

SCENE III.

G.o.dLER, TReVELe.

TReVELe (_to_ G.o.dLER, _while eating a cake_).

I a.s.sure you that Nourvady is a personage apart. Listen now; let us eat all the cakes, drink all the lemonade, and during that time you can solve the enigma, for at length you ought to know what is going on in this house, you who have always been a friend of the Marchioness of Quansas. It is said even....

G.o.dLER (_after looking around him_).

In 1853.

TReVELe.

You are decided?

G.o.dLER.

In 1853.

TReVELe.

Why did you never tell it?

G.o.dLER.

In 1853 there was a Madam Duranton, who kept a shop in the rue Traversiere.

TReVELe.

Where may the rue Traversiere be?
