Maximilien Morrel
Haydee is the Count’s “slave,” whom he originally purchased in Constantinople because he knew she was the daughter of the Ali Pasha (who once knew Fernand). Haydee is devoted to the Count for saving her from imprisonment and torture. She lives a quiet life in the Count’s home on the Champs-Elysées, and the Count allows her to get to know Albert, to whom she tells her sad story. Albert recognizes that his father, Fernand, has betrayed and murdered Haydee’s father, the Ali Pasha, and this begins a chain of events leading to Fernand’s suicide and the social ruin of the Morcerf family. Haydee and the Count later have a romantic relationship when the Count recognizes he has loved Haydee for years.

Chapter 77 Quotes
I was taken to the bazaar. A rich Armenian bought me, educated me, gave me teachers and, when I was thirteen, sold me to Sultan Mahmoud.
And from him, I bought her, as I told you, Albert, for that stone equal to the one in which I keep my lozenges of hashish.
Oh, my lord, how good and great you are ... How fortunate I am to belong to you!

Explanation and Analysis:
Here, the Count wishes to demonstrate for Albert Haydee’s life story. He also wants Albert to see how devoted Haydee is to him – that Haydee believes she owes her entire life to the Count, for saving her from continued bondage in the Middle East. Although perceptive readers have sensed for some time that Haydee’s father, the Ali Pasha, was killed by Albert’s father Fernand, Albert is not yet aware of this, and indeed is taken in by Haydee, her beauty, and her melancholy story of her young life overseas. Haydee’s affection for the Count, as described here, is total Dolorem et quae. Exercitationem non aut. Eveniet dolor non. Incidunt dolores sunt. Ad dolor at. Quia aperiam eligendi.

Explanation and Analysis:
These are the final words of the novel. All four of the characters in this final scene have had, in their own ways, to “hope” and “wait” for salvation. Haydee, in the Middle East, could only hope and wait for deliverance from her bondage; this deliverance did indeed arrive, in the form of the Count, who whisked her to Paris. Valentine had to hope and wait, while in a drug-induced coma, that Maximilien would indeed arrive on the island to marry her. Maximilien had to hope and wait that the Count’s urgings were genuine – that something great was in Dolorem et quae. Exercitationem non aut. Eveniet dolor non. Incidunt dolores sunt. Ad dolor at.
