The Patience of Fourteen Years (The Count of Monte Cristo, Chapter 22 – Part 5)
Manage episode 509422942 series 3640498
Dantès reminds himself that he has learned to wait — liberty itself was worth fourteen years, and wealth can wait longer if need be.
In The Count of Monte Cristo, Chapter 22, Monte Cristo fades from sight while the smugglers complete a smooth Corsican landing, divide their profits, and prepare for another voyage. Edmond watches, patient and observant, biding his time as La Jeune Amélie sails on to Sardinia.
