I could not refrain from starting when I heard him utter the name of Clarimonde, and this news of her death, in addition to the pain it caused me by reason of its coincidence with the nocturnal scenes I had witnessed, filled me with an agony and terror which my face betrayed.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
