Sometime before, Madam Guerin being with him at the observatory, the platform of which is very much elevated from the ground: as soon as he approached near the parapet, he was seized with terror, and a universal trembling; his face was covered with moisture; he drew her by the arm towards the door and did not recover himself till he had reached the bottom of the stairs: what midst be the cause of his terror is a thing that I was not anxious to ascertain; it was sufficient for me to know the effect of it, in order to make it subservient to the execution of my purpose. An opportunity very soon presented itself: during a most violent fit of passion, which I had reason to believe was excited by the repetition of our exercises, taking advantage then of the moment when the functions of the senses were not as yet suspended, I suddenly opened the window of the chamber, which was on the fourth story, looking down upon a rough pavement. I approached him with every appearance of fury, and seizing him forcibly, I held him out of the window, his face directly turned towards the bottom of this p re ci]) ice; when, after some seconds, I withdrew him from this situation, he appeared pale, covered with cold sweat; his eyes moistened with tears, and still agitated with a slight trembling, which I attributed to the effects of fear: I then took him again to his boards; I made him gather up his scattered papers and insisted that they should be all replaced All this was executed, although, it must be confessed, in a slow and rather a slovenly manner. He did not, however, venture to betray any impatience. After it was done, he threw himself on his bed and burst into a flood of tears.
