Duncan, after a neigh of protest and a moment or two of standing stock-still, begins to move again when Pachelbel plays, trotting along in apparent contentment.
Combeferre turns to Percy. He doesn't say "I told you so," but his face might just say it for him.
"I would not harm him," Combeferre says instead.
He's annoyed, but he's also amused. This may be Shakespeare's Hotspur--Combeferre makes a note to talk to Prouvaire and find out for sure--who Combeferre gathers is a very heroic sort of character. Hotspur, defender of innocent horses against cruel Frenchmen. It sounds like a tale an English poet might tell.
