About the Book

Extrait: ...l'office du soir. J'entendais aussi quelquefois le bruit de la marche d'un cheval qui reconduisait sans doute son maitre a la campagne, apres qu'il avait passe la journee du dimanche a Glascow. Un silence absolu, une solitude complete m'environnerent bientot, et ma promenade sur les rives de la Clyde ne fut plus interrompue que par le bruit des cloches qui sonnaient les heures. Qu'elles etaient lentes au gre de mon impatience! Combien de fois ne me reprochai-je pas une folle credulite! Ce rendez-vous ne pouvait-il pas m'avoir ete donne par un insense, par un ennemi?
