Description

"After passing through a small wood, she saw, at the end of an alley, in the most remote part of the garden, a sort of cabinet open on all sides, to which she addressed her steps. As she neared it, she saw a man lying on some benches, seemingly deep in reverie, and recognized it as M. de Nemours. This sight stopped her dead in her tracks."
