"
The
executioner
of
Lille
,
the
executioner
of
Lille
!
"
cried
Milady
,
a
prey
to
insensate
terror
,
and
clinging
with
her
hands
to
the
wall
to
avoid
falling
.
Every
one
drew
back
,
and
the
man
in
the
red
cloak
remained
standing
alone
in
the
middle
of
the
room
.
"
Oh
,
grace
,
grace
,
pardon
!
"
cried
the
wretch
,
falling
on
her
knees
.

The
unknown
waited
for
silence
,
and
then
resumed
,
"
I
told
you
well
that
she
would
know
me
.
Yes
,
I
am
the
executioner
of
Lille
,
and
this
is
my
history
.
"
All
eyes
were
fixed
upon
this
man
,
whose
words
were
listened
to
with
anxious
attention
.
"
That
woman
was
once
a
young
girl
,
as
beautiful
as
she
is
today
.
She
was
a
nun
in
the
convent
of
the
Benedictines
of
Templemar
.
A
young
priest
,
with
a
simple
and
trustful
heart
,
performed
the
duties
of
the
church
of
that
convent
.
She
undertook
his
seduction
,
and
succeeded
;
she
would
have
seduced
a
saint
.

"
Their
vows
were
sacred
and
irrevocable
.
Their
connection
could
not
last
long
without
ruining
both
.
She
prevailed
upon
him
to
leave
the
country
;
but
to
leave
the
country
,
to
fly
together
,
to
reach
another
part
of
France
,
where
they
might
live
at
ease
because
unknown
,
money
was
necessary
.
Neither
had
any
.
The
priest
stole
the
sacred
vases
,
and
sold
them
;
but
as
they
were
preparing
to
escape
together
,
they
were
both
arrested
.
"
Eight
days
later
she
had
seduced
the
son
of
the
jailer
,
and
escaped
.
The
young
priest
was
condemned
to
ten
years
of
imprisonment
,
and
to
be
branded
.
I
was
executioner
of
the
city
of
Lille
,
as
this
woman
has
said
.
I
was
obliged
to
brand
the
guilty
one
;
and
he
,
gentlemen
,
was
my
brother
!
"
I
then
swore
that
this
woman
who
had
ruined
him
,
who
was
more
than
his
accomplice
,
since
she
had
urged
him
to
the
crime
,
should
at
least
share
his
punishment
.
I
suspected
where
she
was
concealed
.
I
followed
her
,
I
caught
her
,
I
bound
her
;
and
I
imprinted
the
same
disgraceful
mark
upon
her
that
I
had
imprinted
upon
my
poor
brother
.
