As the hour to wait upon the king was not till twelve, he had made a party with Porthos and Aramis to play a game at tennis in a tennis court situated near the stables of the Luxembourg.
Como la cita con el rey no era hasta las doce, había proyectado con Porthos y Aramis ir a jugar a la pelota a un garito situado al lado de las caballerizas del Luxemburgo.
