The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Ten Years Later by Alexandre Dumas: the young man, "the king, your brother, desires me to have
the honor of presenting to your royal highness, Monsieur le
Chevalier d'Artagnan."
"In order that your royal highness may have, in case of
need, a firm support and a sure friend," added Parry.
D'Artagnan bowed.
"You have still something to say, Parry," replied Henrietta,
smiling upon D'Artagnan, while addressing the old servant.
"Yes, madam, the king desires you to preserve religiously in
your memory the name and merit of M. d'Artagnan, to whom his
majesty owes, he says, the recovery of his kingdom."
