- “The blinds were pulled down and they started at a gallop by the Rue Richelieu. On reaching the gate the captain of the post advanced at the head of a dozen men, holding a lantern in his hand. D’Artagnan signed to them to draw near. ‘Do you recognize the carriage?’ he asked the sergeant. ‘No,’ replied the latter. ‘Look at the arms.’ The sergeant put the lantern near the panel. ‘They are those of monsieur le coadjuteur,’ he said. ‘Hush; he is enjoying a ride with Madame de Guéménée.’ The sergeant began to laugh. ‘Open the gate,’ he cried. ‘I know who it is!’ Then putting his face to the lowered blinds, he said: ‘I wish you joy, my lord!’ ‘Impudent fellow!’ cried D’Artagnan, ‘you will get me turned off.’ The gate groaned on its hinges, and D’Artagnan, seeing the way clear, whipped his horses, who started at a canter, and five minutes later they had rejoined the cardinal.”
