Rating: PG
Summary: The Persian looked at Christine's calm profile in the lamplight. She was reading a little gilt-edged book of a format often used for religious works: The Imitation of Christ, for example. appears in such editions. The Persian could still hear the natural tone in which Erik had said, "to please my wife."
He gently called Christine again, but evidently she was deeply engrossed in her book, because she did not hear him.
Erik came back and gave the Persian a potion to drink, after advising him to say nothing more to "his wife" or anyone else, because it would be very dangerous to everyone's health.
After that, the Persian remembered seeing Erik's black figure and Christine's white one gliding silently across the room and leaning over him and Raoul. He was still very weak and the slightest sounds--the door of the mirror wardrobe squeaking when it opened, for example--gave him a headache. Finally he slept, like Raoul.
