The Hunchback of Notre Dame Book 6 Chapter IV - A Tear for a Drop of Water

from The Victor Hugo Library · host Victor Hugo

In which the crowd gathers at the Place de Grève to witness the harsh punishment of Quasimodo, the grotesque bellringer of Notre-Dame, as he is bound to the pillory and scourged with merciless severity while enduring the jeers and cruelty of the populace. Amidst this brutal spectacle, a singular moment of mercy arises when a bright, young gypsy girl offers the afflicted man a droplet of relief, stirring a rare and poignant tear upon his otherwise impenetrable visage.
