And now, here's a short word from our sponsors.

Welcome to send me to sleep. The place to find relaxing stories for a good night's rest. My name's

Andrew. Thanks for joining me. Tonight I'll be reading The Three Musketeers by Alexander

DeMas, Chapter 61 to 63. In the previous chapters, Felton and Melady arrived in Portsmouth, where Felton gains entry to Packingham's

headquarters under the pretense of delivering a message from Lord De Winter. Felton, however,

fatally wounds him. Before the Duke dies, a messenger arrives with a letter and verbal message from the Queen,

urging him to end the war and confessing her love.

Meanwhile, at La Rochelle, the musketeers, eager to rescue Madame Bonacieux from the convent

where the lady is headed, are granted five five days leave by Monsieur de Treville.

Setting out immediately, they encounter the man from Mung, who manages to escape but drops a note

with the name of a town, Armontier.

Now that you're caught up with the story so far, let's get ourselves ready for sleep.

Start by taking a deep, relaxing breath. And settle your body in whatever way feels most comfortable. Now let any thoughts of the day drift away from your mind

and simply follow the sound of my voice.

So let your eyes fall heavy and your breath soften as we settle in for a peaceful night's sleep. Chapter 61
