10. si TOUS tenes au moule de votre oapwflum, ' if you value your head.' Moule is the *mouId' that shapes anything; hence the head, which moulds the head-dress, is called le moule du bonnet^ &c., as a pleasantry. Capuchon is used since the monk wore a cowl over his head.

37. il ordonna de fsire reconduire les voyageurs en prison, 'he ordered the travellers to be taken back to jail.'

11. il eût pu... accepter, 'he might hâve accepted.' Pu hère is used for emphasis, but need not be translated. See Eve § 182. The phrase is the apodosis of a conditional sentence, whose protasis (* if the matter had concerned himself alone ') is understood in pour lui-même, The pluperfect subjunctive is used instead of the past conditional. See Eve § 378 Obs. I.

14. fftt, the subjunctive follows pour que introducing a final sentence. Eve § 160.

17. auquel on supposait, 'for whom one expected,' or *whom one credited with.' The dative is of the remoter object. Eve § 144.
