Armand Armagnac were crossing the sunlit Champs Elysee with a kind of vivacious respectability.
The Wisdom Of Father Brown by Chesterton, Gilbert K. View in context
Over the Tarn and the Garonne, through the vast quagmires of Armagnac, past the swift-flowing Losse, and so down the long valley of the Adour, there was many a long league to be crossed ere they could join themselves to that dark war-cloud which was drifting slowly southwards to the line of the snowy peaks, beyond which the banner of England had never yet been seen.
