Spada n'avait pu que demander à son neveu : « Avez-vous reçu mon message ? » Le neveu répondit que non et comprit parfaitement la valeur de cette question : il était trop tard, car il venait de boire un verre d'excellent vin mis à part pour lui par le sommelier du pape.
Le Comte de Monte-Cristo, p. 195 · C1
