Although he seem to steal
He restitutes in some sweet way
Secreted in his will-

his white face looked up to heaven, and he let Cosette and Marius cover his hands with kisses,-for he was dead. The night was starless and intensely dark; doubtless some immense angel was standing in the gloom, with outstretched wings, waiting for the soul. ─ Les Miserables (1862) by Victor Hugo
