Avenue
des
Champs
Elysees
;
but
I
see
you
have
quite
recovered
from
your
fright
,
and
are
,
no
doubt
,
desirous
of
returning
home
.
Anticipating
your
wishes
,
I
have
desired
the
same
horses
you
came
with
to
be
put
to
one
of
my
carriages
,
and
Ali
,
he
whom
you
think
so
very
ugly
,
"
continued
he
,
addressing
the
boy
with
a
smiling
air
,
"
will
have
the
honor
of
driving
you
home
,
while
your
coachman
remains
here
to
attend
to
the
necessary
repairs
of
your
calash
.
As
soon
as
that
important
business
is
concluded
,
I
will
have
a
pair
of
my
own
horses
harnessed
to
convey
it
direct
to
Madame
Danglars
.
"
"
I
dare
not
return
with
those
dreadful
horses
,
"
said
Madame
de
Villefort
.
"
You
will
see
,
"
replied
Monte
Cristo
,
"
that
they
will
be
as
different
as
possible
in
the
hands
of
Ali
.
With
him
they
will
be
gentle
and
docile
as
lambs
.
"
Ali
had
,
indeed
,
given
proof
of
this
;
for
,
approaching
the
animals
,
who
had
been
got
upon
their
legs
with
considerable
difficulty
,
he
rubbed
their
foreheads
and
nostrils
with
a
sponge
soaked
in
aromatic
vinegar
,
and
wiped
off
the
sweat
and
foam
that
covered
their
mouths
.

Then
,
commencing
a
loud
whistling
noise
,
he
rubbed
them
well
all
over
their
bodies
for
several
minutes
;
then
,
undisturbed
by
the
noisy
crowd
collected
round
the
broken
carriage
,
Ali
quietly
harnessed
the
pacified
animals
to
the
count
's
chariot
,
took
the
reins
in
his
hands
,
and
mounted
the
box
,
when
to
the
utter
astonishment
of
those
who
had
witnessed
the
ungovernable
spirit
and
maddened
speed
of
the
same
horses
,
he
was
actually
compelled
to
apply
his
whip
in
no
very
gentle
manner
before
he
could
induce
them
to
start
;
and
even
then
all
that
could
be
obtained
from
the
celebrated
"
dappled
grays
,
"
now
changed
into
a
couple
of
dull
,
sluggish
,
stupid
brutes
,
was
a
slow
,
pottering
pace
,
kept
up
with
so
much
difficulty
that
Madame
de
Villefort
was
more
than
two
hours
returning
to
her
residence
in
the
Faubourg
St.
Honore
.
Scarcely
had
the
first
congratulations
upon
her
marvellous
escape
been
gone
through
when
she
wrote
the
following
letter
to
Madame
Danglars
:
--
Dear
Hermine
--
I
have
just
had
a
wonderful
escape
from
the
most
imminent
danger
,
and
I
owe
my
safety
to
the
very
Count
of
Monte
Cristo
we
were
talking
about
yesterday
,
but
whom
I
little
expected
to
see
today
.
I
remember
how
unmercifully
I
laughed
at
what
I
considered
your
eulogistic
and
exaggerated
praises
of
him
;
but
I
have
now
ample
cause
to
admit
that
your
enthusiastic
description
of
this
wonderful
man
fell
far
short
of
his
merits
.
Your
horses
got
as
far
as
Ranelagh
,
when
they
darted
forward
like
mad
things
,
and
galloped
away
at
so
fearful
a
rate
,
that
there
seemed
no
other
prospect
for
myself
and
my
poor
Edward
but
that
of
being
dashed
to
pieces
against
the
first
object
that
impeded
their
progress
,
when
a
strange-looking
man
--
an
Arab
,
a
negro
,
or
a
Nubian
,
at
least
a
black
of
some
nation
or
other
--
at
a
signal
from
the
count
,
whose
domestic
he
is
,
suddenly
seized
and
stopped
the
infuriated
animals
,
even
at
the
risk
of
being
trampled
to
death
himself
;
and
certainly
he
must
have
had
a
most
wonderful
escape
.
The
count
then
hastened
to
us
,
and
took
us
into
his
house
,
where
he
speedily
recalled
my
poor
Edward
to
life
.
He
sent
us
home
in
his
own
carriage
.
Yours
will
be
returned
to
you
tomorrow
.
You
will
find
your
horses
in
bad
condition
,
from
the
results
of
this
accident
;
they
seem
thoroughly
stupefied
,
as
if
sulky
and
vexed
at
having
been
conquered
by
man
.
The
count
,
however
,
has
commissioned
me
to
assure
you
that
two
or
three
days
'
rest
,
with
plenty
of
barley
for
their
sole
food
during
that
time
,
will
bring
them
back
to
as
fine
,
that
is
as
terrifying
,
a
condition
as
they
were
in
yesterday
.

Adieu
!
I
can
not
return
you
many
thanks
for
the
drive
of
yesterday
;
but
,
after
all
,
I
ought
not
to
blame
you
for
the
misconduct
of
your
horses
,
more
especially
as
it
procured
me
the
pleasure
of
an
introduction
to
the
Count
of
Monte
Cristo
--
and
certainly
that
illustrious
personage
,
apart
from
the
millions
he
is
said
to
be
so
very
anxious
to
dispose
of
,
seemed
to
me
one
of
those
curiously
interesting
problems
I
,
for
one
,
delight
in
solving
at
any
risk
,
even
if
it
were
to
necessitate
another
drive
to
the
Bois
behind
your
horses
.
Edward
endured
the
accident
with
miraculous
courage
--
he
did
not
utter
a
single
cry
,
but
fell
lifeless
into
my
arms
;
nor
did
a
tear
fall
from
his
eyes
after
it
was
over
.
I
doubt
not
you
will
consider
these
praises
the
result
of
blind
maternal
affection
,
but
there
is
a
soul
of
iron
in
that
delicate
,
fragile
body
.
Valentine
sends
many
affectionate
remembrances
to
your
dear
Eugenie
.
I
embrace
you
with
all
my
heart
.
Heloise
de
Villefort
.
P.S.
--
Do
pray
contrive
some
means
for
me
to
meet
the
Count
of
Monte
Cristo
at
your
house
.
I
must
and
will
see
him
again
.
I
have
just
made
M.
de
Villefort
promise
to
call
on
him
,
and
I
hope
the
visit
will
be
returned
.
