CHAPTER XII.
Conclusion.
Notwithstanding the anger which Mas
ter Martin felt toward Reginald and
Frederick, yet he could not but confess,
that all joy and pleasure had left the
workshop with them. From the new
apprentices he received nothing but
vexation and chagrin. He was obliged
10 look after every trihe, and the smalles.
labour could not be performed without
his oversight.-Oppressed with the cares
Of the day, he often sighed, Oh Reginald,
oh Frederic, had you not SO shamelully
deceived me, had you but renamed faith
fol coopers. He went 90 far that he
often wrestled with the thought Of giving
up all labour.
Wrapped in such snd ideas, he was
one evening sitting IN his house, when
Mr.. Jacobus Paung gariner, and with him
Master John Holzschuer, came in very
unexpectedly. Martin imagined that
Frederic was now to be the theme OF
conversation, and Master Holzschuer
soon began 10 praise the young man in
every possible way. He thought it was
cett9in that with such diligence and such
talents, Frederic would rot only make an
excellent goldsmith, but would also have
great success In casting figures after the
manner Of Peter Fischer.
Then Master Paumga began TO
enlarge upon the unworthy treatment
which the pour apprentice had suffered
from Master Martin, and both urged lha.
il Frederic should become a skiliul gold
smith and statuary, he should give him
Rosa for his wife, in case she was willing
TO accept him. Maser Martin suffered
them both to finish what they had to say,
and then drew of his cap, aud said with
a smile, "You, my good gentleman, de-
lend the apprentice bravely, who deceived
me in shameful manner. YET | will
forgive him, but do not ask that l shall
for his sake change my strong resolution; /;
with Rosa the affair is all ended"
Al that moment Rosa came in, aud
silently placed wine aud glasses on tho
table.
"Now," began Master Holzschuer,
"I must give up poor Frederic, who is
about to quit his native city forever. He
mas completed beautiful piece OF work
with me, which he wishes, il you will
permit it, to give to your Rosa for keep
sake; just look at It,"
Then Master Holzschuer produced a
small skllfully wrought goblet oi silver,
and reached il TO Master Martin, who
delighted greatly in costly furniture
He took il and examined il carefully on
all sides. Indeed there could be nothing
moro beautiful in silver work than this
little vessel. Delicate rows Of vine
leaves aud roses encircled il, and out Of
The opening buds Of the roses peeped
lovely angels. On the golden ground Of
he inside, were beautifully wrought
angels. When wine was poured into the
goblet, il seemed as il the Iiule angels
rose up and down 10 playful sport. This
goblet, said Master Martin, IL indeed
most deIicately wrought, aud ! will re-
;eive il, il Frederic will take from me
iouble It's value in gold pieces. Saying
his, Master Martin filled tho goblet and
alsed II 10 his lips. Al ihs, moment the
loor gently opened, aud Frederic, the
leadly grief oil eterasl separation from
lis beloved painted on his pale ccuate-
'snce, entered the room. As soon Is
Rosa saw hIm, she cried aloud with a
iercing tone, "Oh, dearest Frederic"
nd fell half fainting upon his breast.
'Isster Martin put down the goblet, ohd
hen he saw Rosa in Fredsric's nrms,
G strained his eyes ssif hs had seen .

nd looked al the inside Of il, jumped from
