Those who hear the bitter cry are as much impressed as if they listened to an entire poem.
And when the sufferer is sincere, they are right in regarding his outburst as sublime.
It would be difficult to describe the state of stupor in which Villefort left the palais.
Every pulse beat with feverish excitement, every nerve was strayed, every vein swollen, and every part of his body seemed to suffer distinctly from the rest, thus multiplying his agony a thousandfold.
He made his way along the corridors through force of habit.
He threw aside his magisterial robe, not out of deference to etiquette, but because it was an unbearable burden, a veritable garb of necess, insatiate in torture.
Having staggered as far as the rue Dauphine, he perceived his carriage, awoke his sleeping coachman by opening the door himself, threw himself on the cushions, and pointed towards the Faubourg Saint-Honoré.
The carriage drove on.
The weight of his fallen fortunes seemed suddenly to crush him.
He could not foresee the consequences.
He could not contemplate the future with the indifference of the hardened criminal who merely faces a contingency already familiar.
God was still in his heart.
"'God!'
he murmured, not knowing what he said.
"'God!
God!'
Behind the event that had overwhelmed him, he saw the hand of God.
The carriage rolled rapidly onward.
Villefort, while turning restlessly on the cushions, felt something press against him.
He put out his hand to remove the object.
