Villon

“A very grateful guest,” said Villon politely; and he drank in dumb show to his entertainer.

He took Christina a very handsomely bound copy of Villon, of whom she was fond, and several volumes of new verse.

One of the most striking examples of what I mean is furnished by the poet Franois Villon, thief, house-breaker, and scape-gallows.

Auvers is somewhat doubtfully stated as being the birthplace of François Villon—that prince of vagabonds.

Certainly, Villon found, in this legitimate issue of his career, a very staggering and grave consideration.
