It was a fan which Madame de Villefort had left in the carriage.
This fan awakened a recollection which darted through his mind like lightning.
He thought of his wife.
"'Oh!'
he exclaimed, as though a red-hot iron were piercing his heart.
During the last hour his own crime had alone been presented to his mind.
Now another object, not less terrible, suddenly presented itself—his wife.
He had just acted the inexorable judge with her.
He had condemned her to death, and she, crushed by remorse, struck with terror, covered with the shame inspired by the eloquence of his irreproachable virtue—
She, a poor, weak woman, without help or the power of defending herself against his absolute and supreme will.
She might at that very moment, perhaps, be preparing to die.
An hour had elapsed since her condemnation.
At that moment, doubtless, she was recalling all her crimes to her memory.
She was asking pardon for her sins.
Perhaps she was even writing a letter imploring forgiveness from her virtuous husband.
the forgiveness she was purchasing with her death.
Villefort again groaned with anguish and despair.
"'Ah!'
he exclaimed.
"'That woman became criminal only from associating with me.
