Chapter XIII
THE OUTCAST'S LUCK. But in his long journey to Paris he had often to regret this abode which he had cursed. Sore, wearied, famished--for he had lost his coin--he fell in the dusty highway, but with clenched fists and eyes glaring with rage. "Out of the way, there!" yelled a hoarse voice, amid cracking of a whip. He did not hear, for his senses left him.
