 87 49|            take her at least three days. Add another day for landing,
 88 49|             that would be thirteen days lost--thirteen days, during

 93 50|    yourself: 'Fifteen days, twenty days? Bah! I have an inventive

 98 51|           made the army find these days short which were not only
 99 52|          and she has ten or twelve days, as Lord de Winter, her

102 54|        Patience, patience! In four days' time the shore will be
103 54|      agreeable to you, for in four days England will be relieved
104 54|          again. She had still four days before her. Four days would

114 57|            to come back again. Six days ago, I landed at Portsmouth." ~"

116 60|      distribute furloughs for four days, on condition that the favored
117 60|     obtained of M. de Treville six days instead of four, and introduced
118 60|          introduced into these six days two more nights--for they
