And he kep his eyes upon them with Q
neutrality-suspicious. glance, palpably
embarrassing 10 the traitors on the dale.
Earl Douglas" said the chancellor again,

more humble and answer to the things
whereof you are accused. DO you desire

"Of what need are witnesses7 W no

The chancellor motioned with his hand,
vhereupcn Master Robert Berry, a procura-
tor Of the city, advanced and read q long
parchment, which set forth in phrase and
detail Of legality twenty accusations against
the earl, OF treason, rebellion and manifest
oppression.
When he had finished the chancellor said:
"And now. Earl Douglas. what answer have
you 20 these things?"
Does 1t matter at all what I answer?'
asked the earl, succtnctly.
II do not handy words with you," said the
chancellor, II order you to make your plead

"'Tis a barbarous CUSTOM" said the
chancellor: I'VE will try your case upon Its

The earl laughed . little hooking

1T will be somewhat safer" said he; "but
haste you and get the sham dom with. I
plead nothing. I do not even tell you that
you lie. What doth one expect Of a gutter

guard, seeing It, longed to slay him on the
spot.
MAY I ask my lord earl Of Douglas and
duke Of Touraine in return what Is that to
him ?" he said. with sneering emphasis upon
the titles.
ut matters to me-" replied William
Douglas boldly, more than life. and almost
as much as honor. The Lady sybilla did
me the honor to tell mo that she loved me.
And I in turn am bound to her In life and
DEATH"
TIL chancellor and the tutor broke Into
laughter. but the marshal continued to
smile his terrible smile Of determinate evil.
Listen" he said at last. 'hsar this, my
lord OF Touraine. ever since we came to this
kingdom. and indeed, long before we left
the realm Of France, the Lady Sybilla in

springing. His right hand dropped softly
from his brothers shoulder upon the hilt of
his dagger.
Then Wit one sudden bound he was over
the barrier and upon the dais. Almost bis
blade was at the marshal's throat, and but
for the crossed partisans of two guards who
stood on either side Of De Retz, he had died
there and then by the dagger OF William
Douglas. As 1t was the youth was brought
to a stand with his breast pressed vainly
against the steel points, and stood there
crying out In fury: Liar and toad! Come
out from behind, that I may slay thee with
my hand"
A score Of men-at-arms approached from
behind and forced him back to his place.
Bring in the Lady sybilla." said tho
marshal. still smiling. while the Judges sat
silent and afraid at the anger Of one man.
And even while the earl stood painting.
after his outburst of furious anger. they
opened the door at the back of the dais.
and through 1t there entered. the Lady
Sybilla. Instantly the eyes OF William
Douglas fixed themselves upon her, but she
did not raise hers nor look at him. She
stood at the further side at the edge of the
dais, her hands Joined In front of her, and
her golden hair streamed down her back and
fell In waves over her white dress.
An angel OF light coming through the open
door Of heaven could not have appeared
more innocent and pure.
The Marshal de Retz turned towards his
niece. and with his eyes fixed upon hers and
with the same pitiless chill In them, he said
In a low tone: Look at mel"
The girl raised her eyes slowly, and al
It had been. reluctantly, and In them, in
stead OF the meek calm Of an angel. there
appeared the terror and dismay Of lost
soul that listens to its doom.
