The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Les Miserables by Victor Hugo: On the following day, M. Leblanc and his daughter made only a very
brief stay in the Luxembourg; they went away while it was still
broad daylight. Marius followed them to the Rue de l'Ouest, as he
had taken up the habit of doing. On arriving at the carriage
entrance M. Leblanc made his daughter pass in first, then paused,
before crossing the threshold, and stared intently at Marius.
On the next day they did not come to the Luxembourg. Marius waited
for them all day in vain.
At nightfall, he went to the Rue de l'Ouest, and saw a light
in the windows of the third story.
He walked about beneath the windows until the light was extinguished.
