occupy a
high
station in
society.
Your name
is
celebrated,
your
position
magnificent;
and then
the Count
de Morcerf
is a
soldier,
and it is
pleasing
to see the
integrity
of a
Bayard
united to
the
poverty of
a
Duguesclin:
disinterestedness
is the
brightest
ray in
which a
noble
sword can
shine. As
for me, I
consider
the union
with
Mademoiselle
Danglars a
most
suitable
one; she
will
enrich
you, and
you will
ennoble
her.”
Albert
