CHAPTER 2
WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE
Jean Valjean, sentenced to five
years in the galleys for the theft of a
loaf of bread, serves his term of hor-
rible torture and privation. Paroled,
he is shunned by everyone and hound-
ed by the authorities. He seeks
refuge in the home of kindly old
Bishop Bienvenu who treats him like
a long lost brother. Jean is suspicious
of such kindness; revenge for the
wrongs done him is. foremost in his

The operating airway will extend

at last with her questioning, he told her: “If I be shaven, then my strength will go from me, and I shall become -
weak, and be like any other man.”—Judges 16: 16-17. Delilah then made Samson sleep, and cut off his hair. The
Philistines put out his eyes and imprisoned him. Samson’s hair began to grow again, however, and one day when the
Philistines gathered to make sacrifices to their god, Samson was called in to make sport for them. Samson asked to be

stines. And he bowed himself with all his might; and the house fell upon the people therein. So the dead which he
slew at his death were more than they which he slew in his life.”—Judges 16: 30. In the right foreground Merian,

The bishop goes back to his notes,
