 Along the road bordered with rocks and briers, on clear starlight night, Stefana walked hastily. She was late. Fortunately Domenico patient with her. The fiery youth, who was high tenn pered and proud among men, was like slave when with her. He obeyed her least word or sign, as though she exercised some charm over him. She was hastening to keep her tryst with him, for she knew he was waiting for her. It was not her fault she said to herself, that her parents had retired later than usual that night.
 At last she neared the trysting place She was almost out of breath, she had run good part of the way. She could in the starlight the little clump of trees where he ought to be waiting. She thought of the loving kiss he would soon place on her lips
 She reached the little clump of trees. No one was there.
 Why had Domenico not come? What could have delayed him?
 Suddenly a wild cry escaped from Stefana There before her eyes only three paces in front of her, in the skirt of the shadow cast by the little clump of trees, lay an outstretched form Was it Domenco?
 It was her lover. Dead? No, he was living for a sigh escaped from his lips; but he was wounded for the sigh was like death rattle. "Domenco What is the matter with you? What is it2 Tell me-speak to mel" She knelt beside him. She raised his head and placed it in her lap. She embraced him. and her form was shaken with psroxysm of grief. At last Domenico opened his eyes, and low sound came from his lips
  wounded?"
 "To death" replied the young man in feeble voice.
 "Hush Do not say that" "It is the truth"
 'Your knife is still in your belt. You were assaulted?"
 "The coward struck me from behind" "The villain! Who was it2" "Pietro"
 An! Petro! Why did he attack you2" "He loved you"
 "WhO told you SOP"
 "He himself. He has sworn that you shall wed no one but him."
 "The wretch '"
 "Stefana, I am dying. Swear to me that you will never be that mans wife" "What?"
 "Swear."
 "I swear"
 Six months afterwards, before the assembled vil- lagers, Stefana was married to Pietro. Along the road bordered with rocks and briers, a clear starlight night, Stefana walked slowly. man walked beside her, timing his steps to hers, and now and then turning toward his companion to gaze upon her beautiful face in which two black eyes burned with sombre radiance. "Stefana," he said at last, pausing, "the way is long. Will you not take my srm?" "No, not yet" she replied. "The way does not seem long to me, and am not tired"
