At the first sound of the voice l had
sprung to my feet. At the first glance
I had thrilled with anger. Not twice
in a lifetime does one meet that noble
figure. that queenly head, those eyes as
blue as the Garonne, and as chilling
as her winter waters.

an impatient tap of her foot. What

She had forgotten the man win whom
she had to deal. Was it likely that I

l kissed her hand again lest she

an instant the hall was empty.

escorted her into a side room, where
she sat by my side at the table and took
the refreshments which offered her.
How she blossomed out in my pres

beauty. She must have read my admi-
