 58 23|         have not seen you nor your friends, and I don't think you could
 59 23|        dear Monsieur Bonacieux, my friends and I have been on a little

 81 28|        doing there?" cried the two friends. ~"Ah, is that you, d'Artagnan,
 82 28|      understand?" said Athos. ~"My friends, that's exactly like me!
 83 28| irreproachable passion. And so, my friends, we return to Paris? Bravo!
 84 28|          it is getting cold." ~The friends, at ease with regard to
 85 29|            preoccupied of the four friends was certainly d'Artagnan,
 86 29|         before us," said he to his friends. "well, if at the end of
 87 29|            company." ~"Have you no friends in Paris, then, Monsieur
 88 30|           have probably one or two friends?" ~"I have three, who would

 94 34|          Porthos rose, saluted his friends, and followed Mousqueton.
 95 34|            therefore leave the two friends, who had nothing important
 96 34|           please, we will join our friends; as I am rich, we will today

101 36|         wrong thus to neglect your friends, particularly at the moment
102 36|            is surely not one of my friends?" replied d'Artagnan, affecting
103 36|             If it were one of your friends you would hesitate, then?"
104 38|            No, no; it is one of my friends who loves her--Monsieur

109 39|   Samaritaine struck six; the four friends pleaded an engagement, and
110 39|          at some distance from his friends, darted a scrutinizing glance
111 39|            appointed. D'Artagnan's friends reminded him that he had
112 39|           strongly attached to his friends. ~"If de Wardes has related
113 39|   Fortunately," added he, "my good friends are down yonder, and they

118 41|            anything. ~"Ah, my poor friends!" murmured d'Artagnan; "
119 42|       hearing any tidings from his friends. ~But one morning at the
120 42|       expressive gesture his three friends, whose eyes soon discovered
121 42|           reception over, the four friends were soon in one another'
122 42|          whom he introduced to his friends. ~"Ah, ah!" said Porthos, "
123 42|          happened?" ~"Look you, my friends!" cried d'Artagnan, "a horrible
124 42|       should be sent for. ~"Oh, my friends," said d'Artagnan, "you
125 42|           perceiving that the four friends desired to be alone, retired. ~
126 42|     repented of it." ~And the four friends quit the room, leaving to
127 42|           Aramis?" cried the three friends. "You! And how?" ~"By the
128 42|           this assurance, the four friends, who had finished their

130 43|        some suspicion in the three friends, and Athos, advancing a
131 43|          know you are not quite my friends, and I am sorry you are
132 43|     accompany me; you and your two friends, and then I shall have an
133 44|   adventurous character, our three friends had just rendered a service
134 44|         that he made a sign to his friends to be silent, remaining
135 44|         was tied with those of his friends to the fastenings of the
136 45|        that the wine came from his friends. In short, it was you who
137 45|         cardinal saluted the three friends with an inclination of his
138 45|        here it is." ~And the three friends did not exchange another

140 46|         began to appear. The three friends ordered breakfast, and went
141 46|         with the views of the four friends. Thus they applied very
142 46|       circle of the camp, the four friends did not exchange one word;
143 46|           at the bastion, the four friends turned round. ~More than
144 47|              said Athos. ~The four friends seated themselves on the

148 47|         cried Athos. ~And the four friends rushed out of the fort,
149 47|         over the heads of the four friends. A thunder of applause saluted
150 47|       letter to get rid of his two friends, Aramis and Porthos, at
151 47|          numerical weakness of the friends, the Rochellais continued

153 47|           the wall!" ~And the four friends, seconded by Grimaud, pushed
154 47|          general alarm." ~The four friends listened, and the sound
155 47|          you any money?" ~The four friends looked at one another, and
156 47|          and the dessert. The four friends followed, ten paces behind
157 47|               Athos came down; his friends, who anxiously awaited him,
158 47|         French, on seeing the four friends return at such a step, uttered
159 47|         the stones around the four friends, and whistling sharply in

161 47|            continued; but the four friends were out of reach, and the
162 47|      become a Musketeer. The three friends were likewise greatly delighted. ~"
163 48|           appointed hour, the four friends met. There only remained
164 48|          to the approbation of his friends. ~     ~ ~ ~ ~    "My dear
165 48|     seamstress, Tours." ~The three friends looked at one another and
166 48|           D'Artagnan looked at his friends, as if to say, "Well, what
167 48|          tenderness at seeing four friends so closely united. ~D'Artagnan
168 48|        that I have not informed my friends that I would entrust this
169 48|          his commission. ~The four friends, during the period of these
170 48|         the Parpaillot as the four friends were sitting down to breakfast,

172 48|         was chatting with the four friends when the letter came. ~"
173 48|        which weighed upon the four friends. The days of expectation
174 48|    confronted with himself and his friends. Still further, his confidence
175 48|          in d'Artagnan and his two friends that they could not remain
176 48|        said he to Athos and to his friends. ~"That's well," said Athos, "

187 60|     eagerly demanded all his three friends. ~"Nothing but one word!"
188 60|         half-pistole. To horse, my friends, to horse!" ~And the four
189 60|           to horse!" ~And the four friends flew at a gallop along the
