"She loves him devilishly," he murmured. Then he went out.
This time Kitty was nowhere waiting for him; her in the antechamber, nor in the corridor, nor beh the great door. It was necessary that d''Artagnan should find alone the stairbsp;and the little chamber. She heard him enter, but she did not rai her head. The young man went to her and took her hands; then she sobbed aloud.

Returning to her own room, Kitty had thrown the pur into a er, where it lay open, disg three or four gold piebsp;on the carpet. The poor girl, under the caress of d''Artagnan, lifted her head. D''Artagnan himlf was frightened by the ge in her tenanbsp;She joined her hands with a suppliant air, but without venturing to speak a word. As little nsitive as was the heart of d''Artagnan, he was touched by this mute sorrow; but he held too tenaciously to his projects, above all to this one, to ge the program whibsp;he had laid out in advanbsp;He did not therefore allow her any hope that he would flinbsp;only he reprented his a as one of simple vengeance.
