Think you, I have assumed this priestly guise and lived this double life, for nearly eleven years, simply to seek that beastly thing you call Revenge. Revenge is redress for wrongs, endur- ing only with the worldly expiation of the offense; more intense, absorbing, consuming — both body and soul — are what I seek. It may seem strange to you; but I have been revenged since the first day I entered the service of Christophe — now ten long years. ALPHONSE DE PAYS I have frequently wondered in what ...manner, you were able to enter so completely into the confidence of this man. It is currently reported that he confesses to you, ha! ha! — if this be so, what nightmares must you have, and what penance you must give him — ha! ha — unless he confesses only venial sins, and thought- fully forgets his major offenses. PERE L AVENGE It is true ; I have learned the soul of this man — his thoughts are of my making; his acts are prompted by these thoughts — and his every deed is but the reflexion of my will.
