The King s Musketeers And The Cardinal s Guards D Artagnan was acquainted with nobody in Paris. He went therefore to his appointment with Athos without a second determined to be satisfied with those his adversary should choose. Besides his intention was formed to make the brave Musketeer all suitable apologies but without meanness or weakness fearing that might result from this duel which generally results from an affair of this kind when a young and vigorous man fights with an adversary who is wounded and weakened--if conquered he doubles the triumph of his antagonist if a conqueror he is accused of foul play and want of courage. Now we must have badly painted the character of our adventure seeker or our readers must have already perceived that D Artagnan was not an ordinary man therefore while repeating to himself that his death was inevitable he did not make up his mind to die quietly as one less courageous and less restrained might have done in his place. He reflected upon the different characters of men he had to fight with and began to view his situation more clearly. He hoped by means of loyal excuses to make a friend of Athos whose lordly air and austere bearing pleased him much. He flattered himself he should be able to frighten Porthos with the adventure of the baldric which he might if not killed upon the spot relate to everybody a recital which well managed would cover Porthos with ridicule. As to the astute Aramis he did not entertain much dread of him and supposing he should be able to get so far he determined to dispatch him in good style or at least by hitting him in the face as Caesar recommended his soldiers do to those of Pompey to damage forever the beauty of which he was so proud. In addition to this D Artagnan possessed that invincible stock of resolution which the counsels of his father had implanted in his heart Endure nothing from anyone but the king the cardinal and Monsieur de Tréville. .
