- Then they went from jeweller to jeweller, searching for another necklace like the first, consulting their memories,both ill with remorse and anguish of mind.
- In a shop at the Palais-Royal they found a string of diamonds which seemed to them exactly like the one theywere looking for. It was worth forty thousand francs. They were allowed to have it for thirty-six thousand.
- They begged the jeweller not to sell it for three days. And they arranged matters on the understanding that itwould be taken back for thirty-four thousand francs, if the first one were found before the end of February.
- Loisel possessed eighteen thousand francs left to him by his father. He intended to borrow the rest.
- He mortgaged the whole remaining years of his existence, risked his signature without even knowing if hecould honour it, and, appalled at the agonising face of the future, at the black misery about to fall upon him, at theprospect of every possible physical privation and moral torture, he went to get the new necklace and put down uponthe jeweller's counter thirty-six thousand francs.
- He did borrow it, getting a thousand from one man, five hundred from another, five louis here, three louis there.He gave notes of hand, entered into ruinous agreements, did business with usurers and the whole tribe of money-lenders.
- When Madame Loisel took back the necklace to Madame Forestier, the latter said to her in a chilly voice:
- She did not, as her friend had feared, open the case. If she had noticed the substitution, what would she havethought? What would she have said? Would she not have taken her for a thief?
- You ought to have brought it back sooner; I might have needed it.
