Chapter 17

#Page 50.#

[Footnote 136: #Où veut-il en venir#, _What is he "driving at?"_]

[Footnote 137: #surcroît de gages#, _in addition to your wages_.]

[Footnote 138: #Le voici#, _He's caught_, i.e., he has yielded to the temptation of Montrichard's bribe.]

[Footnote 139: #de l'argent gagné#. There is a _double entente_ here. Montrichard understands "money as good as earned," because Henri feels sure of success. Henri means that the audience shall understand him to say "money already earned," because he has already shown the outlaw to Montrichard.]
