'What of that" said another, ''Who
could help but forgive and love such
handsome, pleasant couple as that, let
them do what they would:2a
Hans took his cousins to the door Of
the tower, and carefully led thom up the
narrow, winding staircaSe-up, up, up
till at last they reached the belfry itself.
There they gazed with awe and amaze
ment at the huge bell, which hung still
and silent, like some sleeping monster.
Then Hans showed them the bell, and
explained to them the strange devices
engraved thereon, until Elisabeth ex-
claimed
ooh, Hans, thou art the greatest,
cleVereSt man I have ever known"
A quarter of twelve.
The crowd IN the square talked faster
than ever and gazed eagerly at the huge
face OF the clock; whilst in the belfry,
Ritter entertained his cousins by RECALLING
them out of his vast stores of knowledge.
Never had Elisabeth known her shy.
reserved cousin so talkative and interest
ing, and both she and Heinrich marveIed
that the quiet Hans could be so brilliant.
Ten minutes to twelve
The crowd became gradually quieter
and more eager in their gaze, whilst
Hans and his cousins chatted on cheer
fully in the huge belfry. Elisabeth
slowly spelt out the legend traced in
large letters all around the golden dome

"What strange motto, Hansn' she
said. "Why didst thou choose it?"
"knoWest thou not, nv fair cousin.
answered he, "that bell-tounder en-
