Excerpt from The Misanthrope Corrected
He advances into the village, and he observes a house into which the people are going and coming with uneasiness. He demands the cause of these movements; they tell him that,the head of the family is at the point of death. He enters, and sees an old man, who with an expiring, but serene eye, seems to bid: adieu to his children, who melt into tears around him. He dis tinguishes, in the midst of the crowd, a person moved, but less afflicted, who encourages and consoles them. By his plain and grave dress, he takes him for the physician of the village. Sir, said he to him, be not surprised at seeing here a stranger. It is not an idle curiosity that brings me hither. These good people may have need of assistance at so melancholy a juncturer, and come Sir, said the Viscount to. Him, my peasants thank you: I hope as long as I live theywill have nobody, and if money could prolong the days of a good man, this Worthy father of a family should be restored to his children. Ah, sir, said Aloestes, on discovering Monsieur De Laval, by his talk, pardon an uneasiness which I ought not to have had. - 'f I am not offended, replied M. De Laval, that a good deed should be disputed with me; but may I know who you are, and what brings you here? At the name of Alcestes he recollected that censor of human nature, whose rigour was so well known; but without being intimidated, Sir, said he, I am very glad to have you in my neighbourhood, and if I can be of service to you in anything, I beg you to command me.
