More than once he washeard to weep. In the second half of the sixth year, the prisoner began zealously tostudy languages, philosophy, and history. He fell on these subjects sohungrily that the banker hardly had time to get books enough for him. In the space of four years about six hundred volumes were bought athis ...request. It was while that passion lasted that the banker receivedthe following letter from the prisoner: "My dear gaoler, I am writingthese lines in six languages. Show them to experts. Let them readthem. If they do not find one single mistake, I beg you to give ordersto have a gun fired off in the garden. By the noise I shall know thatmy efforts have not been in vain. The geniuses of all ages andcountries speak in different languages; but in them all burns the sameflame. Oh, if you knew my heavenly happiness now that I can understandthem!"
