The
same
day
the
young
man
set
forward
on
his
journey
,
furnished
with
the
three
paternal
gifts
,
which
consisted
,
as
we
have
said
,
of
fifteen
crowns
,
the
horse
,
and
the
letter
for
M.
de
Treville
--
the
counsels
being
thrown
into
the
bargain
.
12
With
such
a
VADE
MECUM
d
Artagnan
was
morally
and
physically
an
exact
copy
of
the
hero
of
Cervantes
,
to
whom
we
so
happily
compared
him
when
our
duty
of
an
historian
placed
us
under
the
necessity
of
sketching
his
portrait
.
Don
Quixote
took
windmills
for
giants
,
and
sheep
for
armies
;
d'Artagnan
took
every
smile
for
an
insult
,
and
every
look
as
a
provocation
--
whence
it
resulted
that
from
Tarbes
to
Meung
his
fist
was
constantly
doubled
,
or
his
hand
on
the
hilt
of
his
sword
;
and
yet
the
fist
did
not
descend
upon
any
jaw
,
nor
did
the
sword
issue
from
its
scabbard
.
It
was
not
that
the
sight
of
the
wretched
pony
did
not
excite
numerous
smiles
on
the
countenances
of
passers-by
;
but
as
against
the
side
of
this
pony
rattled
a
sword
of
respectable
length
,
and
as
over
this
sword
gleamed
an
eye
rather
ferocious
than
haughty
,
these
passers-by
repressed
their
hilarity
,
or
if
hilarity
prevailed
over
prudence
,
they
endeavored
to
laugh
only
on
one
side
,
like
the
masks
of
the
ancients
.
D
Artagnan
,
then
,
remained
majestic
and
intact
in
his
susceptibility
,
till
he
came
to
this
unlucky
city
of
Meung
.
13
But
there
,
as
he
was
alighting
from
his
horse
at
the
gate
of
the
Jolly
Miller
,
without
anyone
--
host
,
waiter
,
or
hostler
--
coming
to
hold
his
stirrup
or
take
his
horse
,
d'Artagnan
spied
,
though
an
open
window
on
the
ground
floor
,
a
gentleman
,
well-made
and
of
good
carriage
,
although
of
rather
a
stern
countenance
,
talking
with
two
persons
who
appeared
to
listen
to
him
with
respect
.
d'Artagnan
fancied
quite
naturally
,
according
to
his
custom
,
that
he
must
be
the
object
of
their
conversation
,
and
listened
.
This
time
d'Artagnan
was
only
in
part
mistaken
;
he
himself
was
not
in
question
,
but
his
horse
was
.

The
gentleman
appeared
to
be
enumerating
all
his
qualities
to
his
auditors
;
and
,
as
I
have
said
,
the
auditors
seeming
to
have
great
deference
for
the
narrator
,
they
every
moment
burst
into
fits
of
laughter
.
Now
,
as
a
half-smile
was
sufficient
to
awaken
the
irascibility
of
the
young
man
,
the
effect
produced
upon
him
by
this
vociferous
mirth
may
be
easily
imagined
.
15
Nevertheless
,
d
Artagnan
was
desirous
of
examining
the
appearance
of
this
impertinent
personage
who
ridiculed
him
.
He
fixed
his
haughty
eye
upon
the
stranger
,
and
perceived
a
man
of
from
forty
to
forty-five
years
of
age
,
with
black
and
piercing
eyes
,
pale
complexion
,
a
strongly
marked
nose
,
and
a
black
and
well-shaped
mustache
.
He
was
dressed
in
a
doublet
and
hose
of
a
violet
color
,
with
aiguillettes
of
the
same
color
,
without
any
other
ornaments
than
the
customary
slashes
,
through
which
the
shirt
appeared
.
This
doublet
and
hose
,
though
new
,
were
creased
,
like
traveling
clothes
for
a
long
time
packed
in
a
portmanteau
.
d
Artagnan
made
all
these
remarks
with
the
rapidity
of
a
most
minute
observer
,
and
doubtless
from
an
instinctive
feeling
that
this
stranger
was
destined
to
have
a
great
influence
over
his
future
life
.
16
Now
,
as
at
the
moment
in
which
d'Artagnan
fixed
his
eyes
upon
the
gentleman
in
the
violet
doublet
,
the
gentleman
made
one
of
his
most
knowing
and
profound
remarks
respecting
the
Bearnese
pony
,
his
two
auditors
laughed
even
louder
than
before
,
and
he
himself
,
though
contrary
to
his
custom
,
allowed
a
pale
smile
(
if
I
may
allowed
to
use
such
an
expression
)
to
stray
over
his
countenance
.
This
time
there
could
be
no
doubt
;
d'Artagnan
was
really
insulted
.
Full
,
then
,
of
this
conviction
,
he
pulled
his
cap
down
over
his
eyes
,
and
endeavoring
to
copy
some
of
the
court
airs
he
had
picked
up
in
Gascony
among
young
traveling
nobles
,
he
advanced
with
one
hand
on
the
hilt
of
his
sword
and
the
other
resting
on
his
hip
.
17
Unfortunately
,
as
he
advanced
,
his
anger
increased
at
every
step
;
and
instead
of
the
proper
and
lofty
speech
he
had
prepared
as
a
prelude
to
his
challenge
,
he
found
nothing
at
the
tip
of
his
tongue
but
a
gross
personality
,
which
he
accompanied
with
a
furious
gesture
.

"
I
say
,
sir
,
you
sir
,
who
are
hiding
yourself
behind
that
shutter
--
yes
,
you
,
sir
,
tell
me
what
you
are
laughing
at
,
and
we
will
laugh
together
!
"
19
The
gentleman
raised
his
eyes
slowly
from
the
nag
to
his
cavalier
,
as
if
he
required
some
time
to
ascertain
whether
it
could
be
to
him
that
such
strange
reproaches
were
addressed
;
then
,
when
he
could
not
possibly
entertain
any
doubt
of
the
matter
,
his
eyebrows
slightly
bent
,
and
with
an
accent
of
irony
and
insolence
impossible
to
be
described
,
he
replied
to
d'Artagnan
,
"
I
was
not
speaking
to
you
,
sir
.
"
20
"
But
I
am
speaking
to
you
!
"
replied
the
young
man
,
additionally
exasperated
with
this
mixture
of
insolence
and
good
manners
,
of
politeness
and
scorn
.
