that because Of fear and the weight of
policy only she slowed scant mercy to
those whom had betrayed, or that because
Of cunning and not for the holy sake Of
woman's love-though, in truth, she liked
me well enough-she chose rather to bind
me to her by the fbers OF my heart And
yet this win say In her behalf: Even
when the danger-cloud had melted from
her SKY she kept her faith, nor, save Faulus
and one other, did any suffer the utmost
penalty of death for their part in the great
plot against Cleopatra's crown and dynasty.
But many other things they suffered
And 30 she went, leaving the vision Of her
glory to strive with the shame and SORROW
OF my heart. Oh, bitter were the hours
that could now no more be made light with
prayer. For the link between me and the
Divine was snapped, and NO more did Isis
commune with her Priest. Bitter were the
hours and dark, but ever through their
darkness shone the starryeyes of Cleopatra,
and came the echo of her whispered love.
For not yet was the cup Of sorrow full Still
hope fingered in my heart, and almost could
think that had failed to some higher end,
and that even in the depths of ruin should
find another and more fowery path to- tri-
umph.
For thus those do who wickedly deceive
themselves, striving to lay the burden Of
their evil deeds upon the back of Fate, striv-
ing to believe their sin may compass good,
and to murder Conscience with the sharp
plea of necessity. But naught can it avail.

Tho eyes of Cleopatra flashed IS she
hearkened to these high words, and saw
her hands tighten on the golden lions, heads
wherein they rested.
I've have had the Aattery,n she said,
sand now, lest we be cloyed with sweets,
we have Its antidotel Listen thou, DeiIius.
The charges in that letter, or, rather, in
can lear Us witness. But it is not cc=, and
it is not to thee, that we viii make defense
OF our acts Of war and policy. Nor win we
leave our kingdom to journey into far
Cilicia, and there, like some poor suppiiant
at law, to plead our cause before the court
OF the noble Antony. II Antony win have
speech with US and inquire concerning
these high matters, the sea Is open and his
welcome shall be royal. Let him come
hither. That is our answer to thee and to
the Triumvirste, o Delliuss'
But Deilius smiled as one who would put
away the weight of wrath, and once more
spoke.
Royal Egypt, thou knowest not the noble
Antony. Stern is he on paper, and ever
does he set down his thoughts as though his
stylus We're spear dipped in the blood of
men, But face to face with him, thou, of
all the world, shall find him the gentlest
warrior that ever won battle. Be advised,
OEgypt! and come. Send me not hence with
such angry words for if thou dost draw Anto-
ny to Alexandra, then woe to Alexandria to
the people Of the Nile, and to thee, 0 Egypt
For then will he come armed and breath
ing war, and hard shall it go with thee who
dost defy the gathered might Of home.
pray thee, then, obey this summons. Come
to Cilicia; come with peaceful gifts and not
in arms. Come in thy beauty. and tricked
IN thy best attire, and naught hast thou to
fear from the noble Antony" He paused
and looked at her meaningly; while !, taxing
his drift, felt the angry blood surge into my
face.
Cleopatra, too, understood, for saw her
rest her chin upon her hand while the dark
cloud Of thought gathered in her eyes. For
time thus she sat, while the crafty Dellius
watched her curiously. And Charmion,
standing with the other maidens by the
throne, she also read his meaning, for her
face Lit up, as in the evening lights sum-
ner cloud when the broad lightning flares
behind it Then once more it grew pale
and quiet.
At length Cleopatra spoke s'This is
heavy matter" she said; sand, therefore,
noble DeIlius, must we have time to let our
judgment ripen. Rest thou here, and make
thee as merry as our poor circumstance
allows Within ten days shalt thou have
thy answer"
A moment the envoy thought, then, rsmil-
ing, made reply: sit is well, o Egypt; on
the tenth day from now will I attend for
mine answer, and on the eleventh sail
hence to join Antony my Lord"
Once more, at sign from Cleopatra, the
trumpets blared, and, bowling, he withdrew.

A SPANISH LEGEND:
How tho EVIL One Was Punished for
Tempting q Friar.

How the Evil One Was Punished for
Tempting Friar.
A certain young Spanish friar, a skillful
painter, especially delighted in devising
new aspects Of blessedness and beauty for
the Virgin, and in setting forth the devil in
the most repulsive and extravagant ugli-
ness. Satan bore this as best he could for
some time; but at last he determined to be
revenged. He assumed the disguise of
a most lovely maiden; and the unhappy
friar, being of an amorous disposition, fell
into the trap. She smiled sweetly on her
shaven wooer, but would not surrender her
beauty at less price than the rich rel
iquaries and jewels of the treasury Of the
monastery. In an evil hour the poor paint
er admitted her at midnight within the con-
vent walls, and she took from the antique
cabinet the precious things she desired.
Then, as they wound their way through the
moonlit cloister, the sinful friar cIutching
his booty with one arm and his beauty with
the other, the demon lady suddenly cried
out Thieves" with diabolical energy. Up
started all the snoring monks and
rushed in disorder from their cells,
detecting the unlucky brother making
OF with the plate. Him they tied safe to a
pillar, leaving him there till the next day
should determine his punishment, while the
brethren went back to their pillows or their
prayers; and then the cruel devil appeared
ing and twitting him and making unmerci-
full mockery of his amorous overtures and
prayers-advising him now to appeal to the
beauty he had so loved to delineate in his
canvases. The pertinent monk took the
advice, and 10 the radiant mother of mercy
descended in all her heavenly loneliness,
unbound his cords, babe him fasten the evil
one in his place to the column and appear
among the monks the next morning at
mathis, which he did, to the great surprise
of the brethren. He voted for his own con-
demnation; but when they went to the
sacristy and found every thing marvelously
correct in its place, and when they went to
the column and found the devil fast bound,
they forgave the erring brother and admins
tered a tremendous aogging to the devil The
monk became not only "a wiser and a bet
ter man, but q better artist; he was now
able to paint the Virgin more serenely beau
tiful. the arch-enemy more appallingly ugly
than ever.-London Globe
