enough! Thank you very much. By the way, Rochefort, what have you done to acquaint me with the composer? Yes, what have you done, Rochefort? Your Eminence, you must know who wrote them. Is that so? Why isn't he locked up in the Bastille, then? Your Eminence, that is impossible. Remember, Rochefort, there is nothing impossible for me. Who is he? Is this marvelous, witty composer so elusive, we can't even put him in the Bastille? Permit me to say, these songs have no specific author. They are so-called street ballads. Composed by the crowd. The people, so to say. Remember, Rochefort, there are no people, whom I couldn't put in the Bastille. Why didn't you at least arrest the singer? If you can't cope with bigger tasks! A crazy Gascon interfered, and the singers fled. Here is a letter, addressed to M. de Treville, confiscated from him. Milady! You must return to England at once. And inform me from there, if the Duke of Buckingham leaves London, or sends a messenger to Paris. A war with England may become inevitable. Will there be any other instructions, Your Eminence? All the instructions are in this box. You shall open it when you've crossed the Channel. Good Lord, so mysterious! While in France, be very careful. The appearance of this Gascon may not be accidental. Rochefort! Find out everything about him. Yes, monseigneur. I tell you to stop! Constance! Let me go, Bonacieux, they're waiting for me! Constance, damn it! Where the devil are you going?! For heaven's sake, leave me alone. Alone? Damn it! A wife asks to be left alone! Constance, wait! I don't want to see you only once a fortnight. They warned you about this at the Louvre. Constance, wait! I want to see you every day! You are mine by law! - I want to own you! - I'm not a thing to own. Let him watch! People can be bought and sold, just like things! Show a little courtesy to the lady, will you? Isn't she pretty? My wife! Come on! By the way, she belong to the Queen's court. And I am Bonacieux, a mercer. Maybe, you'd like to rent a room? I'm renting out a wonderful room. You won't find a better view in all of Paris! And the air! Better tell me how to get to the house of M. de Treville, Captain of the King's Musketeers? Captain of the King's Musketeers? M. de Treville? Here I am again! Are you going to meet him in this beret? What's wrong with my beret?! It's a wonderful beret! But all Musketeers wear feathered hats. I guess, I'll buy this hat from you. Later. Dear sir, for a couple of ecus I'd buy your horse. You add one ecu - and the hat is yours. My horse is worth 100 ecus. But I will let you have it for 3 - plus the hat! True generosity is irresistible! A real Musketeer! And do you know, my dear Musketeers, what the King told me yesterday? No, Captain, we don't. - You don't know? - No. Excellent! So... He told me that yesterday you stayed late at that drinking den on Rue Ferou. You shouted and sang, disturbing public order. The Cardinal's guards issued a warning and tried to take you into custody. Is that so or not? I ask you, gentlemen! Is it so? You are silent! You are silent! 'Sblood! Conversing with the King the Cardinal called you thugs! But, darn it, you are no thugs, If you let the Cardinal's Guards take you into custody. And you, Aramis! Why the devil did you ask me for a uniform?! You would've been much better in a cassock. And you, Porthos! What do you need this fine gold baldric for?! Oh, you'd like to suspend a sward of straw from it! But I don't see our third hero. Where is your friend, Athos? I'm asking you! Where is Athos? He is ill, sir. Very ill, indeed. Oh, is that so? Very touching! What's wrong with him? I believe he's got the measles, sir. It's all very sad. The measles may spoil his complexion. You are hiding something. He must be wounded. No! He must've ------------------------------ Читайте также: - текст Дюна на английском - текст Мятеж на Баунти на английском - текст Кошка, которая гуляла сама по себе на английском - текст Команда мечты на английском - текст Фарго на английском |
