Mr. Jolter threatens to leave him on account of his Misconduct, which he promises to rectify1; but his Resolution is defeated by the Impetuosity of his Passions — He meets accidentally with Mrs. Hornbeck, who elopes with him from her Husband, but is restored by the Interposition of the British Ambassador.
Though Mr. Jolter was extremely well pleased at the safety of his pupil, he could not forgive him for the terror and anxiety he had undergone on his account; and roundly told him, that notwithstanding the inclination3 and attachment4 he had to his person, he would immediately depart for England, if ever he should hear of his being involved in such another adventure; for it could not be expected that he would sacrifice his own quiet, to an unrequited regard for one who seemed determined6 to keep him in continual uneasiness and apprehension7.
To this declaration Pickle8 made answer, that Mr. Jolter, by this time, ought to be convinced of the attention he had always paid to his ease and satisfaction; since he well knew that he had ever looked upon him in the light of a friend rather than as a counsellor or tutor; and desired his company in France with a view of promoting his interest, not for any emolument9 he could expect from his instruction. This being the case, he was at liberty to consult his own inclinations10, with regard to going or staying; though he could not help owning himself obliged by the concern he expressed for his safety, and would endeavour, for his own sake, to avoid giving him any cause of disturbance11 in time to come.
No man was more capable of moralizing upon Peregrine’s misconduct than himself: his reflections were extremely just and sagacious, and attended with no other disadvantage but that of occurring too late. He projected a thousand salutary schemes of deportment, but, like other projectors12, he never had interest enough with the ministry13 of his passions to bring any of them to bear. He had, in the heyday14 of his gallantry received a letter from his friend Gauntlet with a kind postscript16 from his charming Emilia; but it arrived at a very unseasonable juncture17, when his imagination was engrossed18 by conquests that more agreeably flattered his ambition; so that he could not find leisure and inclination, from that day, to honour the correspondence which he himself had solicited19. His vanity had, by the time, disapproved20 of the engagement he had contracted in the rawness and inexperience of youth; suggesting, that he was born to such an important figure in life, as ought to raise his ideas above the consideration of any such middling connections, and fix his attention upon objects of the most sublime21 attraction. These dictates22 of ridiculous pride had almost effaced23 the remembrance of his amiable24 mistress, or at least so far warped25 his morals and integrity, that he actually began to conceive hopes of her altogether unworthy of his own character and her deserts.
Meanwhile, being destitute26 of a toy for the dalliance of his idle hours, he employed several spies, and almost every day made a tour of the public places in person, with a view of procuring27 intelligence of Mr. Hornbeck, with whose wife he longed to have another interview. In this course of expectation had he exercised himself a whole fortnight, when, chancing to be at the Hospital of the Invalids28 with a gentleman lately arrived from England, he no sooner entered the church than he perceived his lady, attended by her spouse29, who at sight of our hero changed colour and looked another way, in order to discourage any communication between them. But the young man, who was not so easily repulsed30, advanced with great assurance to his fellow-traveller, and taking him by the hand, expressed his satisfaction at this unexpected meeting; kindly32 upbraiding33 him for his precipitate34 retreat from Chantilly. Before Hornbeck could make any reply he went up to his wife, whom he complimented in the same manner; assuring her, with some significant glances, he ass2 extremely mortified35 that she had put it out of his power to pay his respects to her on his first arrival at Paris; and then, turning to her husband, who thought proper to keep close to him in this conference, begged to know where he could have the honour of waiting upon him; observing at the same time, that he himself lived a l’Academie de Palfrenier.
Mr. Hornbeck, without making any apology for his elopement on the road, thanked Mr. Pickle for his complaisance36 in a very cool and disobliging manner; saying that as he intended to shift his lodgings37 in a day or two, he could not expect the pleasure of seeing him, until he should he settled, when he would call at the academy, and conduct him to his new habitation.
Pickle, who was not unacquainted with the sentiments of this jealous gentleman, did not put much confidence in his promise, and therefore made divers38 efforts to enjoy a little private conversation with his wife; but he was baffled in all his attempts by the indefatigable39 vigilance of her keeper, and reaped no other immediate5 pleasure from this accidental meeting, than that of a kind squeeze while he handed her into the coach. However, as he had been witness to some instances of her invention, and was no stranger to the favourable40 disposition41 of her heart, he entertained some faint hopes of profiting by her understanding, and was not deceived in his expectation; for the very next forenoon, a Savoyard called at the academy, and put the following billet in his hand:—
“Coind Sur,— Heaving the playsure of meating with you at the osspital of awilheads, I take this lubbertea of latin you know, that I lotch at the hottail de May cong dangle42 rouy Doghouseten, with two postis at the gait, naytheir of um very hole, ware43 I shall be at the windore, if in kais you will be so good as to pass that way at sicks a cloak in the heavening when Mr. Hornbeck goes to the Calf44 hay de Contea. Prey45 for the loaf of Geesus keep this from the nolegs of my hussban, ells he will make me leed a hell upon urth.— Being all from, deer Sur,
your most umbell servan wile46 “Deborah Hornbeck.”
Our young gentleman was ravished at the receipt of this elegant epistle, which was directed, A Monsr. Monsr. Pickhell, a la Gaddamme de Paul Freny, and did not fail to obey the summons at the hour of assignation; when the lady, true to her appointment, beckoned47 him up-stairs, and he had the good fortune to be admitted unseen.
After the first transports of their mutual48 joy at meeting, she told him, that her husband had been very surly and cross ever since the adventure at Chantilly, which he had not yet digested; that he had laid severe injunctions upon her to avoid all commerce with Pickle, and even threatened to shut her up in a convent for life, if ever she should discover the least inclination to renew that acquaintance; that she had been cooped up in her chamber49 since her arrival at Paris, without being permitted to see the place, or indeed any company, except that of her landlady50, whose language she did not understand; so that her spirit being broken, and her health impaired51, he was prevailed upon some days ago to indulge her in a few airings, during which she had seen the gardens of the Luxembourg, the Tuileries, and Palais Royal, though at those times when there was no company in the walks; and that it was in one of those excursions she had the happiness of meeting with him. Finally, she gave him to understand, that rather than continue longer in such confinement52 with the man whom she could not love, she would instantly give him the slip, and put herself under the protection of her lover.
Rash and unthinking as this declaration might be, the young gentleman was so much of a gallant15, that he would not balk53 the lady’s inclinations; and too infatuated by his passion to foresee the consequences of such a dangerous step: he therefore, without hesitation54, embraced the proposal; and the coast being clear, they sallied out into the street, where Peregrine, calling a fiacre, ordered the coachman to drive them to a tavern55; but knowing it would not be in his power to conceal56 her from the search of the lieutenant57 de police, if she should remain within the walls of Paris, he hired a remise, and carried her that same evening to Villejuif, about four leagues from town, where he stayed with her all night; and having boarded her on a genteel pension, and settled the economy of his future visits, returned next day to his own lodgings.
While he thus enjoyed his success, her husband endured the tortures of the damned. When he returned from the coffee-house, and understood that his wife had eloped, without being perceived by any person in the family, he began to rave31 and foam58 with rage and jealousy59; and, in the fury of distraction60, accused the landlady of being an accomplice61 in her escape, threatening to complain of her to the commissaire. The woman could not conceive how Mrs. Hornbeck, who she knew was an utter stranger to the French language, and kept no sort of company, could elude62 the caution of her husband, and find any refuge in a place where she had no acquaintance, and began to suspect the lodger’s emotion was no other than an affected63 passion to conceal his own practices upon his wife, who had perhaps fallen a sacrifice to his jealous disposition. She therefore spared him the trouble of putting his menaces into execution by going to the magistrate64, without any further deliberation, and giving an account of what she knew concerning this mysterious affair, with certain insinuations against Hornbeck’s character, which she represented as peevish65 and capricious to the last degree.
While she thus anticipated the purpose of the plaintiff, her information was interrupted by the arrival of the party himself, who exhibited his complaint with such evident marks of perturbation, anger, and impatience66, that the commissaire could easily perceive that he had no share in the disappearance67 of his wife, and directed him to the lieutenant de police, whose province it is to take cognizance of such occurrences. This gentleman, who presides over the city of Paris, having heard the particulars of Hornbeck’s misfortune, asked if he suspected any individual person as the seducer68 of his yoke-fellow; and when he mentioned Peregrine as the object of his suspicion, granted a warrant and a detachment of soldiers, to search for and retrieve69 the fugitive70.
The husband conducted them immediately to the academy where our hero lodged71; and having rummaged72 the whole place, to the astonishment73 of Mr. Jolter, without finding either his wife or the supposed ravisher, accompanied them to all the public-houses in the Faubourg, which having examined also without success, he returned to the magistrate in a state of despair, and obtained a promise of his making such an effectual inquiry74, that in three days he should have an account of her, provided she was alive, and within the walls of Paris.
Our adventurer, who had foreseen all this disturbance, was not at all surprised when his governor told him what had happened, and conjured75 him to restore the woman to the right owner, with many pathetic remonstrances76 touching77 the heinous78 sin of adultery, the distraction of the unfortunate husband, and the danger of incurring79 the resentment80 of an arbitrary government, which, upon application being made would not fail of espousing81 the cause of the injured. He denied, with great effrontery82, that he had the least concern in the matter, pretended to resent the deportment of Hornbeck, whom he threatened to chastise83 for his scandalous suspicion, and expressed his displeasure at the credulity of Jolter, who seemed to doubt the veracity84 of his asseveration.
Notwithstanding this confident behaviour, Jolter could not help entertaining doubts of his sincerity85, and, visiting the disconsolate86 swain, begged he would, for the honour of his country, as well as for the sake of his own reputation, discontinue his addresses to the lieutenant de police, and apply to the British ambassador, who, by dint87 of friendly admonitions, would certainly prevail upon Mr. Pickle to do him all the justice in his power, if he was really the author of the injury he had sustained. The governor urged this advice with the appearance of so much sympathy and concern, promising88 to co-operate within his influence in his behalf, that Hornbeck embraced the proposal, communicated his purpose to the magistrate, who commended the resolution as the most decent and desirable expedient89 he could use, and then waited upon his excellency, who readily espoused90 his cause, and sending for the young gentleman that same evening, read him such a lecture in private, as extorted91 a confession92 of the whole affair. Not that he assailed93 him with sour and supercilious94 maxims95, or severe rebuke96; because he had penetration97 enough to discern that Peregrine’s disposition was impregnable to all such attacks; but he first of all rallied him on his intriguing98 genius; then, in a humorous manner, described the distraction of the poor cuckold, who he owned was justly punished for the absurdity99 of his conduct; and lastly, upon the supposition that it would be no great effort in Pickle to part with such a conquest, especially after it had been for some time possessed100, represented the necessity and expediency101 of restoring her, not only out of regard to his own character and that of his nation, but also with a view to his ease, which would in a little time be very much invaded by such an incumbrance, that in all probability would involve him in a thousand difficulties and disgusts. Besides, he assured him that he was already, by order of the lieutenant de police, surrounded with spies, who would watch all his motions, and immediately discover the retreat in which he had disposed his prize. These arguments, and the frank familiar manner in which they were delivered — but, above all, the last consideration — induced the young gentleman to disclose the whole of his proceedings102 to the ambassador; and he promised to be governed by his direction, provided the lady should not suffer for the step she had taken, but, be received by her husband with due reverence103 and respect. These stipulations being agreed to, he undertook to produce her in eight-and-forty hours; and, taking coach, immediately drove to the place of her residence, where he spent a whole day and night in convincing her of the impossibility of their enjoying each other in that manner; then, returning to Paris, he delivered her into the hands of the ambassador, who, having assured her that she might depend upon his friendship and protection, in case she should find herself aggrieved104 by the jealous temper of Mr. Hornbeck, restored her to her legitimate105 lord, whom he counselled to exempt106 her from that restraint which in all probability had been the cause of her elopement, and endeavour to conciliate her affection by tender and respectful usage.
The husband behaved with great humility107 and compliance108, protesting that his chief study should be to contrive109 parties for her pleasure and satisfaction. But no sooner did he regain110 possession of his stray sheep, than he locked her up more closely than ever; and after having revolved111 various schemes for her reformation, determined to board her in a convent, under the inspection112 of a prudent113 abbess, who should superintend her morals, and recall her to the paths of virtue114 which she had forsaken115. With this view, he consulted an English priest of his acquaintance, who advised him to settle her in a monastery116 at Lisle, that she might be as far as possible from the machinations of her lover, and gave him a letter of recommendation to the superior of a certain convent in that place, for which Mr. Hornbeck set out in a few days with his troublesome charge.
