Sur les sept heures après midi, la sediola, escortée par tous les gamins de Parme et par trente gendarmes, traversa la belle promenade, passa devant le petit palais qu’habitait la Fausta quelques mois auparavant et enfin se présenta à la porte extérieure de la citadelle à l’instant où le général Fabio Conti et sa fille allaient sortir.
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.
