He ducked his head; when heraised it again he found
himself face to face with the corporal.
He found him to be veryfair, with a big red face.
Theyre like a flock of sheep running away, said Fabrizio with aguileless air to the
corporal.
CorporalAubry marched on without saying a
word.
If we knew his name, we couldtry to find him. He
helped Fabrizio to do this while going on with his instructions. The horse he had
just bought was a magnificent animal, but seemedhalf starved.
Ourhero noticed this, and yielded to the pleasure
of playing the hussarfor a moment.
The soldier had his musket slung on his back; he
reached over hisshoulder to seize it.
It was for thatthat he had come to France. Fabrizio
listened with a thrill of horror to this frightfulaccusation.
She ran to him and was frightened by
hisappearance.
We dont have any faces like that inItaly, he said
to himself.
By thisgentle slope he was easily able to reach the
field on the other sideof the canal. Since Im told Ive got to stick them, he
thought, this is thebest. As he came up to her, Fabrizio heard her say: And he
wassuch a fine-looking man, too! Why repeat sooften, Fabrizio said to himself, what

Why repeat sooften, Fabrizio said to himself, what
all three of us know perfectlywell?
Keep calm, you shall fight, and more than you want!
As he spoke, the corporal marched off at a brisk pace at the head ofhis ten
men.
The soldier had his musket slung on his back; he
reached over hisshoulder to seize it.
Ourhero noticed this, and yielded to the pleasure
of playing the hussarfor a moment.
Give it here, said the corporal in a tone of
authority.
