3. Mademoiselle Baptistine supports his choices, while Madame Magloire manages their small household budget and suggests claiming a travel allowance.

5. Donations flow through his hands without changing his simple life, and country people call him Monseigneur Bienvenu.

En qué fijarte

M. Myriel welcomes a name expressing affection rather than rank. It matches his choice to place other people’s needs above his official comforts.
