Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 "Yes," replied Cagliostro, "you believe, because it concerns La Pérouse; but, if I spoke of yourself, you would not believe."

The Nabob He bowed a farewell, making the sign of the cross upon Cagliostro, and bent his steps to the throne, raising the veil which enveloped Lorenza.

Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 Cagliostro opened his mouth as if to begin, and then stopped, and said, "No, count, no!"

Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 "Then," said Cagliostro, "command me; if your majesty commands, I will obey."

Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 "I command you to reveal to me my destiny, M. de Cagliostro," said the king, with an air at once courteous and dignified. The Queen's Necklace Therefore I congratulated myself upon the inspiration which had led me to mount Cagliostro's staircase. The Yellow Claw The suddenness of the evocation seemed to me all the more amazing because Monsieur de Cagliostro had been unable to divine the name of the person with whom I wished to communicate. Catherine De Medici "Yes," answered Cagliostro, in a low voice, "I was guilty." Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro and his wife were then discharged from custody. Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 "Let us remain as we are, marshal; I wish to hear what M. de Cagliostro is about to say." The Queen's Necklace I perceived that my visit to the house of Cagliostro had been dictated by a good little angel. The Yellow Claw You would make him out a Cagliostro or something worse. The Woman in the Alcove I was a fool," she murmured, "to grant Cagliostro this reception to-night. Old Fritz and the New Era He had in his possession a cabalistic manuscript, containing various arithmetical combinations of the kind, which he submitted to Cagliostro, with an urgent request that he would select a number. Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 Cagliostro looked again through his glass, and one might have imagined the particles agitated by this look, as they danced in, the light.

The Ancien Regime I believe, while the Countess G—— takes you for Lord Ruthven, my mother imagines you to be Cagliostro or the Count Saint-Germain. The Count of Monte Cristo Now I understand it: Cagliostro is not only an impostor—a charlatan, but he is a thief and an assassin. Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro and the Countess afterwards travelled in Italy, where they were arrested by the Papal Government in 1789, and condemned to death. Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 The king remained silent, and Cagliostro buried his head in his hands. The Queen's Necklace Consider them, with their tumid sentimental vaporing about virtue, benevolence,—the wretched Quack-squadron, Cagliostro at the head of them! On Heroes and Hero Worship and the Heroic in History Therefore the two visits a week paid to her by Cagliostro were always eagerly looked forward to, and between them she amused herself with her dreams, and playing the great lady. The Queen's Necklace Like a dark cloud the remembrance of Cagliostro's mysterious appearance arose in her mind, overshadowing her every hour more and more, filling her soul with terror. Old Fritz and the New Era Among others, Cagliostro made good use of the delusion in extending his claims to be considered a master of the occult sciences. Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 "Thanks," said De Condorcet; "but, perhaps, your opinion on this subject is not shared by M. de Cagliostro." The Queen's Necklace One day, when she was bemoaning her fate, she received an unexpected visit from Cagliostro. The Queen's Necklace Cagliostro did not reply, but turned his eyes as if dazzled by her glances. The Queen's Necklace Alone she now awaited with feverish anxiety Cagliostro's appearance. Old Fritz and the New Era It was not until they made their appearance in England in 1776, that the names of the Count and Countess di Cagliostro began to acquire a European reputation. Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 "It is not necessary for you to suffer, sir," said Cagliostro. The Queen's Necklace "M. de Cagliostro!" said she in terror, feeling half inclined to run away; but he took her hand politely, and begged her to sit down. The Queen's Necklace He ran after M. de Cagliostro's carriage, which he soon overtook, as the count had stopped, it being useless to proceed. The Queen's Necklace Cagliostro must be a wizard, then, or a prophet; he has wonderful power over me also, and reads my most secret thoughts. Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro took the manuscript and studied it; but, as he himself informs us, with no confidence in its truth. Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 "Oh, marquis!" replied Cagliostro, beginning to grow warm under this irony, "do not envy these gentlemen, you will have still better." The Queen's Necklace Then Cagliostro told him all he did not already know—all the intrigues in the park. The Queen's Necklace "My friend," replied Cagliostro, "you deceive yourself; I never loved Mademoiselle Oliva; I had but one aim—that of weaning her from the life of debauchery she was leading with you." The Queen's Necklace Wilhelmine recognized in the majestic figure, enveloped in a flowing, silver-embroidered satin robe, with a band of brilliants around his brow, the handsome face of Cagliostro, beaming as if in an ecstasy. Old Fritz and the New Era From that time may be dated the misfortunes of Cagliostro. Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 "There remains the cord, marquis," said Cagliostro, bowing. The Queen's Necklace This gentleman knew a good deal about Cagliostro, his former names, his pretensions to ubiquity and perpetual regeneration, his secrets in alchemy and magnetism, and looked upon him as a great charlatan. The Queen's Necklace "Monsieur," said he to Cagliostro, "you asked me for an audience; I have returned from Versailles to meet you." The Queen's Necklace "Demand a second question of the prophetess," commanded Cagliostro. Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro consented, and was driven to the King's Bench prison, where his friend left him. Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 "I mean that you will be hanged," replied Cagliostro, seeming no more the master of his prophetic rage. The Queen's Necklace "Monsieur," replied Cagliostro, "you are much occupied about Madame de la Motte, and the missing necklace." The Queen's Necklace As Cagliostro left, he muttered, "Ah, countess! you tried to accuse me—take care of yourself." The Queen's Necklace "Then look, and recognize me," cried the mask, extending his hand to Cagliostro. Old Fritz and the New Era But Madame de la Motte insisted that she had entrusted it to Cagliostro, who had seized and taken it to pieces, to "swell the treasures of his immense unequalled fortune." Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 "You may arrange this, if you can, with the executioner," replied Cagliostro. The Queen's Necklace Also, one of the servants of M. de Cagliostro deposed to having seen this man on the box of Jeanne's carriage on the night that she came to his master's house. The Queen's Necklace The man rattled some money in his pocket, and said: "I come to pay for the thousand copies sent for by M. le Comte de Cagliostro." The Queen's Necklace Cagliostro flew to the door, unbolted it, and stood humbly near the entrance. Old Fritz and the New Era She spoke of him as "an empiric, a mean alchymist, a dreamer on the philosopher's stone, a false prophet, a profaner of the true worship, the self-dubbed Count Cagliostro!" Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 Then, turning to Cagliostro, "Sir," he said, "favor me, in my turn, with my horoscope, if you please." The Queen's Necklace Reteau counted them and gave a receipt, smiling graciously on the man, and said, "Tell the Count de Cagliostro that I shall always be at his orders, and that I can keep a secret." The Queen's Necklace There is no need," replied the man; "M. de Cagliostro is independent. The Queen's Necklace Slowly turning toward Cagliostro, he harshly demanded, "Whose servant are you?" Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro, exasperated at their pertinacity, threatened to call in the assistance of the magistrates; and taking Miss Fry by the shoulders, pushed her into the street. Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 "It is easy," replied Cagliostro; "a blow on the head with a hatchet, and all will be over." The Queen's Necklace "Good!" replied another voice; "we will see if we cannot turn the laugh against M. de Cagliostro;" and M. Reteau, turning, saw before him the young man we mentioned. The Queen's Necklace "Monsieur, I do not accuse him," said Reteau, who feared that he should encounter the anger of Cagliostro after he had done with these two. The Queen's Necklace "No!" sadly answered Cagliostro, "it is not the same face." Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro was so disgusted, that he determined to quit England. Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 Cagliostro did not speak; so, her curiosity obtaining the mastery over her fears, she went on. The Queen's Necklace "No, no," cried Philippe, "we do not want the press; the numbers are all printed and here, except those sold to M. de Cagliostro." The Queen's Necklace Each had again the same idea of demanding satisfaction from the Count de Cagliostro. The Queen's Necklace "Was that all?" said Cagliostro, solemnly, "that the crystal showed you." Old Fritz and the New Era It appearing clearly that the Cardinal was himself the dupe of a vile conspiracy; and there being no evidence against Cagliostro, they were both acquitted. Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 "Well, M. de Cagliostro, will you not answer me?" The Queen's Necklace "And that, according to you, M. de Charny, is to make M. de Cagliostro burn his thousand copies." The Queen's Necklace "Monsieur, I am sorry to tell you that I wish to have the first turn with M. de Cagliostro." The Queen's Necklace "You demanded to see the future, and I showed it to you," said Cagliostro, earnestly. Old Fritz and the New Era She was just the wife for Cagliostro, who proposed himself to her, and was accepted. Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions — Volume 3 "Oh, mon Dieu, yes," said Cagliostro; "all I have said is but a jest." The Queen's Necklace Then, before asking satisfaction of M. de Cagliostro, suppose we take a turn in the Bois de Boulogne: it will be out of our way, but perhaps we can settle our dispute there. The Queen's Necklace Then Cagliostro took down from the chimney-piece another little gold phial. The Queen's Necklace Her thoughts would revert to Cagliostro, and the solemnities which were to take place at her house that night. Old Fritz and the New Era "I owed the brother," said Cagliostro, when he had gone, "some compensation for all I made the sister endure." The Queen's Necklace "Excuse me, madame," said Cagliostro, "but you, like all the rest, would have me speak." The Queen's Necklace When Cagliostro arrived at the deserted house in the Rue St. Claude, with which our readers are already acquainted, it was getting dark, and but few people were to be seen in the streets. The Queen's Necklace Cagliostro drew a key from his pocket, and applied it to the lock; but the door was swollen with the damp, and stiff with age, and it required all his strength to open it. The Queen's Necklace "Bless me also, lord and master," cried Cagliostro, kneeling upon the lowest step to the throne. Old Fritz and the New Era "Now that we have renewed our acquaintance, let us converse," said Cagliostro. The Queen's Necklace And Cagliostro pronounced these words in so thrilling a voice that every one was struck with horror. The Queen's Necklace For a moment Cagliostro hesitated, for the pale face and distressed air of the cardinal inclined him to pity; but quickly hardening himself he handed him the paper. The Queen's Necklace Meanwhile a different scene was passing in the Rue St. Claude, where M. de Cagliostro had lodged Oliva in the old house, to keep her from the pursuit of the police. The Queen's Necklace Cagliostro held up with triumphant air the letters. Old Fritz and the New Era Oliva let his hand fall, humiliated, and duped by the pretended generosity of Cagliostro. The Queen's Necklace Cagliostro raised to his lips the glass of water in which he had read these fearful prophecies, but scarcely had he touched it, when he set it down with a movement of disgust. The Queen's Necklace All women are good," thought Cagliostro, "if you only touch the right chord.—From this evening," he said aloud, "you shall move to other rooms, where the windows look on Menilmontant and the Bellevue. The Queen's Necklace Then, hearing a sound behind her, Oliva turned and saw Cagliostro, and came in directly. The Queen's Necklace No," answered Cagliostro, mournfully, "we are poorer than ever. Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro, at his next visit, informed Oliva that an unknown person had paid a visit to her hotel. The Queen's Necklace She left the room, and Cagliostro was about to follow her when Richelieu stopped him. The Queen's Necklace "How could I imagine that you, who said you loved M. Beausire, and were courted by a man like Count Cagliostro, whom you refused; oh! it cannot be true." The Queen's Necklace M. de Crosne drove back to Paris, where M. de Cagliostro waited for him. The Queen's Necklace "Yes," she responded, keeping her large, brown eyes firmly fixed upon Cagliostro's angry face. Old Fritz and the New Era Beausire soon told his story; Cagliostro listened in silence, then said, "She is lost." The Queen's Necklace "It is frightful," murmured Taverney, and he turned to implore Cagliostro to be discreet, but he was gone. The Queen's Necklace M. de Cagliostro requested to be incarcerated, and allowed to prove his innocence publicly. The Queen's Necklace Madame de la Motte had deceived herself on all points, Cagliostro upon none. The Queen's Necklace I will at once send the servant to Minister von Herzberg, and inform him that Cagliostro is here. Old Fritz and the New Era Oliva kept her word faithfully to Cagliostro, and uttered no word that could compromise him. The Queen's Necklace "You wish to kill M. de Cagliostro to please the queen; and, for the same reason, you wish to turn me into ridicule." The Queen's Necklace Then Cagliostro was called, but almost as a matter of form, and dismissed immediately. The Queen's Necklace "I have now led thee hither," Cagliostro said to him, gently; "thy soul doubts and trembles, for thou art blind seeing eyes, and deaf with hearing ears." Old Fritz and the New Era "You, my son and brother," continued Cagliostro, with his lofty, haughty reserve, "your thoughts are diverted from earth, and the joys of this world have no charm for you!" Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro raised himself, his black eyes fixed upon his disciple, and noiselessly disappeared. Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro shrugged his shoulders, as though he were talking to a madman. The Queen's Necklace None but the summoned can enter; I belong to the number, and when it is time Cagliostro will come and fetch me. Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro bent over her, and stroked her cold, pale face, breathing upon her the hot breath of his lips. Old Fritz and the New Era "On the contrary, it would only be a welcome occasion for the Great Kophta to reveal himself, and hurl his despicable, malicious enemy into the dust at his feet," replied Cagliostro, calmly. Old Fritz and the New Era "You are Cagliostro, the great ruler and magician." Old Fritz and the New Era "If you knew," said Cagliostro, "how easily I could make your sword fly from your hand!" The Queen's Necklace Cagliostro bent over him, laid his hand upon his head, breathing three times upon his blond hair. Old Fritz and the New Era Thou shalt receive not only happiness," said Cagliostro, solemnly, "but thou art one of the elect. Old Fritz and the New Era "And you, my beloved brother, think otherwise—do you not?" asked Cagliostro, gently. Old Fritz and the New Era "The Invisibles have proclaimed themselves to you through the sign of fire," cried Cagliostro. Old Fritz and the New Era To love those who disdain you," continued Cagliostro, "who deceive and forget you, is the attribute of great souls. The Queen's Necklace "I have permitted you to behold, for an instant, the mysteries and miracles which are serviceable to the knowing ones," said Cagliostro, with calm earnestness. Old Fritz and the New Era "Rise and receive my orders," replied Cagliostro, with great dignity. Old Fritz and the New Era "It is so," answered Bischofswerder, who, with wondering astonishment, drank in every word that fell from Cagliostro's lips as a revelation. Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro quitted the two confidants, entered his carriage awaiting him before the door, and drove to the hotel. Old Fritz and the New Era "Who tells you so?" cried Cagliostro, with sparkling eyes. The Queen's Necklace It is true," sighed Cagliostro, "I have taught you the truth of things; I have disclosed to you the world's motive power. Old Fritz and the New Era In order the more securely to carry out the initiation of Prince Frederick William, in company with Bischofswerder and Woellner, Cagliostro had arranged his pretended departure. Old Fritz and the New Era It is unnecessary," replied Cagliostro, waving back the letter; "to the seeing eyes every thing is revealed. Old Fritz and the New Era They supposed that the unexpected arrival of Cagliostro would very naturally appear to the prince as a special messenger, sent, without doubt, from the fathers, to accomplish his conversion. Old Fritz and the New Era Ah!" murmured Cagliostro, "why are they not all like you? The Queen's Necklace "It was indeed a dreadful experience, and my heart quakes when I think of it," said Cagliostro, gloomily. Old Fritz and the New Era "It is not necessary to excuse yourself to me, my son," said Cagliostro, pompously. Old Fritz and the New Era "Unhappy one, do you dare to say that to me?" cried Cagliostro, menacingly. Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro, apparently, was lest in deep thought and indifferent to the conversation without, directing quietly and calmly, in the mean time, a few questions to Wollner, and, as it seemed, listening only to his answers. Old Fritz and the New Era "See, then," said Cagliostro, "if all the thousand numbers be there, and burn them yourself." The Queen's Necklace This person announces to Minister von Herzberg that the deceiver and necromancer, Cagliostro, in his flight from Mittau, has visited her to menace her. Old Fritz and the New Era "Open the letter and convince yourselves of the contents!" commanded Cagliostro. Old Fritz and the New Era The Empress of Russia had a certain Joseph Balsamo pursued, who had practised great deception, and people pretend that he resembles Count Cagliostro. Old Fritz and the New Era The contents were exactly as Cagliostro had given them, and the farther Wollner read, the more his voice quivered and Bischofswerder's enthusiasm increased. Old Fritz and the New Era The man, having inquired, returned and said: "M. le Comte de Cagliostro." The Queen's Necklace I regard you with astonishment," said Cagliostro, "for I recognize in your countenance that the devil has won you over to his power, and in you he speaks with the bold insolence of the sinful. Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro passed on, motioning him to follow, which he humbly obeyed, sinking upon his knees as the door closed. Old Fritz and the New Era Cagliostro turned proudly away, and disappeared in the bushes. Old Fritz and the New Era "If one loves humanity, he must insist upon its accepting happiness," said Cagliostro, solemnly. Old Fritz and the New Era "You soon will," replied Cagliostro, producing a folded paper, which he offered to the prince. The Queen's Necklace "Nay, there is a lingering doubt in the mind of brother Chrysophorus!" said Cagliostro, regarding Woellner fixedly, who stood with downcast eyes before him. Old Fritz and the New Era "My ruler and master," stammered Woellner, in confusion, "I dare not doubt, only—" "You would only be convinced, open then the letter," interrupted Cagliostro, sarcastically. Old Fritz and the New Era "But, in order to bear the light in its brightness, he must have passed through the darkness and gloom of sin," said Cagliostro. Old Fritz and the New Era "Even in this extreme danger you only thought of your riches, not of me," said Cagliostro, with a bitter smile. Old Fritz and the New Era "Oh, monseigneur," said Cagliostro, "I would not have asked you for this sum, had I not known beforehand that you had it." The Queen's Necklace Exactly as Cagliostro had foretold, Minister Herzberg did not return from Sans-Souci until late in the evening, and then found Wilhelmine's letter in his cabinet.
