From the library
As soon as she was gone, Noirtier made a sign to Morrel to take the dictionary.
Accustomed, however, as he was to the work, he had to repeat most of the letters of the alphabet and to find every word in the dictionary, so that it was ten minutes before the thought of the old man was translated by these words,

Noirtier looked at the dictionary.
