CHAPTER XII.
—Continued.
LIFE IN THE BASTILB. ' Ah !' said Louis, with a start. • The canoness writes me that her aunt ib ignorant you are at the Bastile; so not a word that may lead her to suppose it/ •You may be at ease, sir/ the page answered. ' For my 'part the governor added, courteously, ' I have forgotten the fact, and shall not remember it till to-morrow; consequently, amuse yourself, dance, pay court to the ladies, and do not think of the to-morrow, if the present hour seems to you agreeable., At this moment the folding doors of the first saloon were thrown open and the groom of the chamber announced — 'The Marchioness de Pres Gilbert and the Canoness de Mailly.' Louis suddenly turned pale, and all his blood coursed to his heart.
