About seven o'clock in the evening the sediola, escorted by all the little boys in Parma and by thirty constables, came down the fine avenue of trees, passed in front of the little palazzo in which Fausta had been living a few months earlier, and finally presented itself at the outer gate of the citadel just as General Fabio Conti and his daughter were coming out.
Arratsaldeko zazpiak inguruan, pasealeku ederra zeharkatu, hilabete batzuk lehenago Faustaren bizileku izandako jauregitxoaren aurretik igaro, eta, azkenean, gotorlekuko kanpoko atearen aurrean agertu zen sediola, Parmako mutiko guztiak eta hogeita hamar jendarme lagun, Fabio Conti jenerala eta bere alaba handik irteteko zorian ziren unean bertan.
