men and richly gowned women FASTENED
to welcome her. They chatted, they
laughed, they joked and we all walked
on.

that he doesn't think OF it. But where
is the ST. Peters Of yesterday
Then we had come with g'eamings OF
church history, with wonderment and
with awe. We had wandered from the
bronze statue OF st. Peter with the
emaciated toe to La Pieta Fresh from
reading the marble Faun" we had
found the English Confessional and
left humble leaf Of thought for Hilda
Today, today, the gay frolicsome crowd!
We lost the little coterie we had been
following and unconsciously found our.
selves bshind the great altar. The
music, heretofore, had been but dis
tant murmur, drowned by the bah
bling OF the people, but nowwe we're at
it's very source. just beyond, was the
screened choir, and around about
groups of quiet, joyful people, who's
souls drank in the gloria.
Occasionally voice pitched too high,
a laugh too boisterous grated upon the
peaceful atmosphere 1t didn't eeem
possible that we hal been among those
gay throngers, even more hilarious than
they.
A man. not far off, With a spiritual,
aesthetic face Of the New England type
followed closely the service. We had
seen him often before in church and
cathedral, until imperceptibly basis
of likes and dislikes had been establish
ed between us. Katish intent upon the
music, had a far.away, up.llfted look
upon her fair face, and this young
American when pleased, displeased
touched or awed. often turned to her
for sympathy; for her face was trans.
parency Of her Utmost thoughts.
The music stopped, the dim twilight
was creeping in, relieved here and there
by great candle. But strange and
awesome the great cathedral looked in
this mistiness OF light and dark.
We wandered out into the nave.
Around the altar marched bishops and
cardinals. pouring water upon it and
washing it in memory Of Christ wash
ing the disciples feet. High above in
the balconies. priests we're showing the
impossible relics OF the church, and
women in tie prescribed Easter gown
of black. with black lace scarfs thrown
over their white faces, were kneeling in
fantastic groups.
The righteousness Of it all swept
over me and wrapt me in it's blanket.
The fifteenth century seemed indeed
the distant future. And down beneath
the vast dome Katish and l knelt, and
then came the silent man and knelt
beside Katish. We staid some moment
until Miss Beman came rushing up.
Hurry girls. Hurry. 1t is getting
late!'
We rose and went out into the early
night, and the silent man found US q
carriage and helped Miss Beman in.
The spell, the charm of those few
hours was still upon US. We said moth

reached our door Miss Beman demanded
