Summary
Joking that an angel of God ("L'ange de l'Eternel") appeared before Loviot and told him that instead of wasting his time going back and forth from home, he should keep all the proofs for their journal about rare books (the Revue des livres anciens) in a pouch and do the pagination at the home of someone else in Boulainvilliers.
