CHAPTER TX.

Ironically, indeed, did fate speed the
bullets there at Arras. The young hus-
band, adored and adoring, died. The man
who prayed but for soldiers death, the
man whose hopeless ugliness forbade
him hope Of love and whose high hon.
or would not let him tell the story Of
the wooing, he lived on.
And while De Guiche and Ragueneau
are carrying away the grief stricken
Roxane, Cyrano turns to the enemy.
The fight had been growing fast and
furious, and the captain of the cadets,
wounded, Is forced to fall back On the
intrenchments. His discouraged COM
pany follow him, when Cyrano, mount
ing the breastworks amid the hail Of
shot, seizes the lance to which they had
tied Roxane's handkerchief and shouts:
''Gascons! Gascons! Never turn your
backP' The retreating cadets rally
around Oyrano and the little white flag.
The Gascon pipes strike up. and even
the wounded try to crawl to the front.
Roxane's gayly decorated carriage is
suddenly turned into fortress, bristling
with arquebuses, and as the overwhelm-
ing Spanish forces swarm over the en-
bankments Oyrano and his cadets meet
them, singing:
"The bold cadets Of Gascony,
OF Carbon Of Castel- Jalouxl
Brawling, staggering boastfully.
The bold cadets''-
But amid the storm Of battle the song
dies away.
Roxane, widowed, went back to
Paris, but she was no more the "pre-
cieuse" Roxane. She sought the peace Of
the convent, not as nun. for she would
not so falsify the human love her heart
held for the lover killed at Arras, but

"She will choose you" said Cyrano.

that glowed within her heart. Oyrano
grew dizzy at the sight and the wild

Roxane pushed forward. The cadets

screamed and pushed the cloak aside.
