KING RENE.s COURT.
The Monarch Was "a TrOubadOur and
MinstreIs FIOcked to Him.

1.-THE Page of Count Reynaurd' is a tale
of the troubadours of Provence. written by
Evaleen Stein. illustrated by MaXfteld Par
IRISH; and printed in the December st. Nicho-
las. Here is d scene from the story:
Count Reynaurd and Pierrot dismounted at
the palace gate. and were led into the great
hall where sat King Rene, wearing a blue
robe embroidered in bright flowers. He was
an old man, and his hair and long beard
happy-hearted as Pierrot himself When he
saw the Count Reynaurd enter the hall he
arose from his throne and came down and
Rugged and kissed him, and patted Pierrot
kindly For Rene was not like most kings,
who are very particular to have everybody
about them as stiff and uncomfortable as
Then presently the Count William. who
had been walking in the garden, hearing of
the arrival of ReynauTd came hurrying in,
his own little page Henri following close
upon his heels He greeted Count Rey-
naurd very cordially, for he had often met
him at the games Of Toulouse, and the little
pages Henri and Pierrot soon became the
best of friends also.
As the day was now drawing to a close.
the good old king invited them all into The
banquet hall, where were already gathered
numbers of troubadours and minnesingers,
who were the troubadours Of Germany.
Some were eating and drinking: some were
telling stories making up poetry; while
still others We're playing on all sorts OF
musical instruments, and We're altogether
having the jolliest kind Of time.
Reynaurd and Pierrot were very hungry
after their long ride and so we're glad TO
sit down at one of the long tables while
the kings seneschals brought in roasted
boar's head and venison pasties, and large
baskets Of the fine white bread of Provence
and Of brown marchpanes. which were nice
little old-time French cookies full of raisins
and covered with nuts and poppy-seeds.
Pierrot waited upon his master very pref
thy. and then feasted upon the many dainties
to his hearts content all the while listening
with delight TO the gay songs of the trouba-
dours and minnesingers. till by and by his
curly head began to nod. and he fell asleep
while still munching marchpane, and slept
so soundly that he had to be shaken when
il was time to 90 upstairs. where little cot
was spread for him close to the great canO-
pied bed for the Count Reynaufd
So the days passed merrily on, and still
time after time, when King Rene fixed day
for the contest between the Counts Reynaurd
ard William they would plead that they
were not ready. for they had grown so lazy
ard pampered by the life they led in the
palace that the dawdled away their time in
idle pleasure.
