But
why
should
it
?
"
"
I
do
not
know
;
but
,
though
unwilling
to
introduce
money
matters
into
our
present
conversation
,
I
will
just
say
this
much
--
that
her
extreme
dislike
to
me
has
its
origin
there
;
and
I
much
fear
she
envies
me
the
fortune
I
enjoy
in
right
of
my
mother
,
and
which
will
be
more
than
doubled
at
the
death
of
M.
and
Mme.
de
Saint
--
Meran
,
whose
sole
heiress
I
am
.
Madame
de
Villefort
has
nothing
of
her
own
,
and
hates
me
for
being
so
richly
endowed
.
Alas
,
how
gladly
would
I
exchange
the
half
of
this
wealth
for
the
happiness
of
at
least
sharing
my
father
's
love
.
God
knows
,
I
would
prefer
sacrificing
the
whole
,
so
that
it
would
obtain
me
a
happy
and
affectionate
home
.

Poor
Valentine
!
"
"
I
seem
to
myself
as
though
living
a
life
of
bondage
,
yet
at
the
same
time
am
so
conscious
of
my
own
weakness
that
I
fear
to
break
the
restraint
in
which
I
am
held
,
lest
I
fall
utterly
helpless
.
Then
,
too
,
my
father
is
not
a
person
whose
orders
may
be
infringed
with
impunity
;
protected
as
he
is
by
his
high
position
and
firmly
established
reputation
for
talent
and
unswerving
integrity
,
no
one
could
oppose
him
;
he
is
all-powerful
even
with
the
king
;
he
would
crush
you
at
a
word
.
Dear
Maximilian
,
believe
me
when
I
assure
you
that
if
I
do
not
attempt
to
resist
my
father
's
commands
it
is
more
on
your
account
than
my
own
.
"
"
But
why
,
Valentine
,
do
you
persist
in
anticipating
the
worst
--
why
picture
so
gloomy
a
future
?
"
"
Because
I
judge
it
from
the
past
.

Still
,
consider
that
although
I
may
not
be
,
strictly
speaking
,
what
is
termed
an
illustrious
match
for
you
,
I
am
,
for
many
reasons
,
not
altogether
so
much
beneath
your
alliance
.
The
days
when
such
distinctions
were
so
nicely
weighed
and
considered
no
longer
exist
in
France
,
and
the
first
families
of
the
monarchy
have
intermarried
with
those
of
the
empire
.
The
aristocracy
of
the
lance
has
allied
itself
with
the
nobility
of
the
cannon
.
Now
I
belong
to
this
last-named
class
;
and
certainly
my
prospects
of
military
preferment
are
most
encouraging
as
well
as
certain
.
My
fortune
,
though
small
,
is
free
and
unfettered
,
and
the
memory
of
my
late
father
is
respected
in
our
country
,
Valentine
,
as
that
of
the
most
upright
and
honorable
merchant
of
the
city
;
I
say
our
country
,
because
you
were
born
not
far
from
Marseilles
.
"
"
Do
n't
speak
of
Marseilles
,
I
beg
of
you
,
Maximilian
;
that
one
word
brings
back
my
mother
to
my
recollection
--
my
angel
mother
,
who
died
too
soon
for
myself
and
all
who
knew
her
;
but
who
,
after
watching
over
her
child
during
the
brief
period
allotted
to
her
in
this
world
,
now
,
I
fondly
hope
,
watches
from
her
home
in
heaven
.
Oh
,
if
my
mother
were
still
living
,
there
would
be
nothing
to
fear
,
Maximilian
,
for
I
would
tell
her
that
I
loved
you
,
and
she
would
protect
us
.
