E had just left Gisors, where I was awakened by hearing the name of the town called out by the guards, and I was dozing off again when a terrific shock threw me forward on top of a large lady who sat opposite me. One of the wheels of the engine had broken, and the engine itself lay across the track. The tender and the baggage-car were also derailed, and lay beside this mutilated engine, which rattled, groaned, hissed, puffed, sputtered, and resembled those horses that fall in the street with their flanks heaving, breasts palpitating, nostrils steaming, and the whole body trembling, but incapable of the slightest effort to rise and go on again. There were no dead, or wounded; only a few 181 with bruises, for the train was not going at full speed. And we looked with sorrow at the great crippled iron creature, which could not draw us along any more, and which perhaps would block the track for some time, for no doubt they would have to send to Paris for a special train to come to our aid., It was then ten o'clock in the morning, and I at once decided to go back to Gisors for breakfast. As I was walking along I said to myself: ' " Gisors--Gisors--why, I know some one there! Who is it? Gisors? Let me see, I have a friend in this town." A name suddenly came to my mind, " Albert Marambot." He was an old school friend whom I had not seen for at least twelve years, and who was practising medicine in Gisors. He had often written inviting me to come to see him, and I had always promised to do so, without keeping my word. But at last I would take advantage of this opportunity. I asked the first passer-by: " Do you know where Doctor Marambot lives? " He replied without hesitation, and with the drawling accent of the Normans: " Eue Dauphine." I...

BALL OF TALLOW OR several days in succession fragments of a defeated army had passed through the town. They were mere disorganized bands, not disciplined forces. The men wore long, dirty beards and tattered uniforms; they advanced in listless fashion, without a flag, without a leader. All seemed exhausted, worn out, incapable of thought or resolve, marching onward merely by force of habit, and dropping to the ground with fatigue the moment they halted. One saw, in particular, many enlisted men, peaceful citizens, men who lived quietly on their income, bending beneath the weight of their rifles; and little active volunteers, easily frightened but full of enthusiasm, as eager to attack as they were ready to take to flight; and amid these, a sprinkling of red-breeched soldiers, the pitiful remnant of a division cut down in a great battle; somber artillerymen, side by side with nondescript foot-soldiers; and, here and there, the gleaming helmet of a heavy-footed dragoon who had difficulty in keeping up with the quicker pace of the soldiers of the line. Legions of irregulars with high-sounding names --" Avengers of Defeat," " Citizens of the Tomb," "Brethren in Death "--passed in their turn, looking like banditti. Their leaders, former drapers or grain merchants, or tallow or soap handlers--warriors by force of circumstance, officers by reason of their mustachios or their money--covered with weapons and flannel and braid, and gold lace, spoke in an impressive manner, discussed plans of campaign, and behaved as though they alone bore the fortunes of dying France on their braggart shoulders; though, in truth, they frequently were afraid of their own men--scoundrels often brave without limit, but dishonest and debauched. Rumor had it that the...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Works of Guy De Maupassant: Translations and Critical and Interpretative Essays For thirty years she had lived in her little house, with its tiny garden running along the street; she had never changed her habits, only changing her ser vants pitilessly, as soon as they reached twenty-one years of age. When her dogs, cats and birds would die of old age or from an accident, she would replace them without tears and without regret; with a little spade, she would bury the dead animal in a strip of ground, throwing a few shovelfuls of earth over it and stamp ing it down with her feet, in an indifferent manner. She had a few friends in town, families of clerks who went to Paris every day. Once in a while she would be invited out, in the evening, for tea. She would inevitably fall asleep, and she would have to be awakened when it was time for her to go home. She never allowed anyone to accompany her, fearing neither light nor darkness. She did not appear to like children. She kept herself busy doing countless male tasks -carpentering, gardening, sawing or chopping wood, even laying bricks when it was necessary.
