Ainsi,--et dans le grossissement de l'angoisse, et dans l'illusion d'optique de la consternation, tout ce qui eût pu restreindre et corriger son impression s'effaçait, et la société, et le genre humain, et l'univers se résumaient désormais à ses yeux dans un linéament simple et terrible,--ainsi la pénalité, la chose jugée, la force due à la législation, les arrêts des cours souveraines, la magistrature, le gouvernement, la prévention et la répression, la sagesse officielle, l'infaillibilité légale, le principe d'autorité, tous les dogmes sur lesquels repose la sécurité politique et civile, la souveraineté, la justice, la logique découlant du code, l'absolu social, la vérité publique, tout cela, décombre, monceau, chaos; lui-même Javert, le guetteur de l'ordre, l'incorruptibilité au service de la police, la providence-dogue de la société, vaincu et terrassé; et sur toute cette ruine un homme debout, le bonnet vert sur la tête et l'auréole au front; voilà à quel bouleversement il en était venu; voilà la vision effroyable qu'il avait dans l'âme.
