The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Ten Years Later by Alexandre Dumas: "All but the price," said the fisherman; "yes, sire."
"That is my affair," said Charles, "the gentleman is my
friend."
Monk started and looked at Charles on hearing this word.
"Very well, my lord," replied Keyser. And at that moment
they heard Keyser's eldest son, signaling from the shore
with the blast of a bull's horn.
"Now, gentlemen," said the king, "depart."
"Sire," said D'Artagnan, "will it please your majesty to
grant me a few minutes? I have engaged men, and I am going
without them; I must give them notice."
