The port with its brick quays, where they had both played in childhood.
It was with one accord that they stopped on the Canabierre,
A vessel was setting sail for Algiers, on board of which the bustle usually attending departure prevailed.
The passengers and their relations crowded on the deck, friends taking a tender but sorrowful leave of each other, some weeping, others noisy in their grief.
the whole forming a spectacle that might be exciting even to those who witnessed similar sights daily, but which had no power to disturb the current of thought that had taken possession of the mind of Maximilian from the moment he had set foot on the broad pavement of the quay.
"'Here,' said he, leaning heavily on the arm of Monte Cristo, "'here is the spot where my father stopped, when the pharaoh entered the port.'
It was here that the good old man, whom you saved from death and dishonor, threw himself into my arms.
I yet feel his warm tears on my face, and his were not the only tears shed, for many who witnessed our meeting wept also.
Monte Cristo gently smiled and said, I was there, at the same time pointing to the corner of the street.
As he spoke, and in the very direction he indicated, a groan, expressive of bitter grief, was heard, and a woman was seen waving her hand to a passenger on board the vessel about to sail.
Monte Cristo looked at her with an emotion that must have been remarked by Morel had not his eyes been fixed on the vessel.
"'Oh, heavens!'
exclaimed Morel.
I do not deceive myself.
That young man who is waving his hat, that youth in the uniform of a lieutenant, is Albert de Morsurf.'
"'Yes,' said Monte Cristo.
I recognized him.'
"'How so?
You were looking the other way.'
The Count smiled, as he was in the habit of doing when he did not want to make any reply.'
