Comme Fabrice était aimé à Grianta, personne n’eût prononcé son nom, et sans l’aimable procédé de son frère, tout le monde eût feint de croire qu’il était à Milan, et jamais l’attention de la police de cette ville n’eût été appelée sur son absence.
As Fabrizio was beloved at Grianta, no one there had mentioned his name, and, but for his brother's kind intervention, everyone would have pretended to believe that he was at Milan, and the attention of the police in that city would not have been drawn to his absence.
