Book excerpt: Excerpt from St. Roche, Vol. 3 of 3: A Romance, From the German He offered her his arm, and with sentiments completely in unison, they proceeded to this im portant interview, which' was to decide upon the happiness of two beings whose own feelings on the subject were never taken into consideration. In fact, no doubt ever crossed the mind of the 'count d'aubaine, after what he-had heard, as to the only course which he considered that he could with propriety adopt; for although we must in justice bear witness to his having been the best of men and of fathers, yet it was not possible that he should be' so completely free from the prejudices of the age in which he lived, as to imagine that personal merit could possibly be considered as an equivalent for the difference of birth. He felt angry at the mistake he had made in placing the young man on so intimate a footing in his house, without more minute inquiry as to his position, and, with paternal tenderness, only thought of lightening the burden of shame which be doubted not Francoise would feel, on learning how nu worthy was the object whom she had suffered to gain an influence over her affections. In order, however, to give his wife, who was not prepared, a hint for the guidance of her own conduct, after the first salutations, he 'began by entreating her to join him in setting the mind of' the maréchale at rest concerning the companion of the young Count de Crecy, relating to her at the same time the humiliating account which the maréchale had just given of him.
