- Hallo! Put a flask of wine and the largest pipe, in the little vaulted room behind the hall."
- One of the domestics, in a very kind manner, executed the baron's order in the course of half an hour or so,
- and Von Koëldwethout being apprised thereof, strode to the vaulted room, the walls of which, being of dark shining wood,
- gleamed in the light of the blazing logs which were piled upon the hearth. The bottle and pipe were ready, and, upon the whole,
- the place looked very comfortable. "Leave the lamp," said the baron. "Anything else, my lord?" inquired the domestic.
- "The room," replied the baron. The domestic obeyed, and the baron locked the door.
