The Archdeacon and the bell-ringer found, as we have said before, but little favour with the people, great or small, in the purlieus of the Cathedral. If Claude and Quasimodo went abroad, as occasionally happened, and they were seen in company—the servant following his master—traversing the chilly, narrow, and gloomy streets in the vicinity of Notre-Dame, many an abusive word, many a mocking laugh or opprobrious gibe would harass them on their passage unless Claude Frollo—though this was rare—walked with head erect and haughty bearing, offering a stern and well-nigh imperial front to the startled gaze of his assailants.
The couple shared in the neighbourhood the fate of those poets of whom Régnier says:
“Toutes sortes de gens vont après les poètes,Comme après les hiboux vont criant les fauvettes.”

'11All sorts of people run after the poets,As after the owls fly screaming the linnets.';
