-the heshy Bishop" flung himself with all
his weight upon the angry King" Come
thou must" roared the besotted b nadic-
tines as they lumberingy closed in.
Some sharp business ensued. "Exerting
his great strength. the King threw the
bulky Kynesige from him. Dashing for
ward he plunged his sword into one Of the
advancing monks. Withdrawing his blade
dripping with blood, he plunged it into
another, and yet another But they pressed
upon him eagerly and sought the more
to overpower him. Seize him. shouted
the Bishop. Seize him in the name of
God and Odo'' Thrs melted the mad
dened monks fell furiously on the King
Sweeping his sword he kept them at reach
for a time, his eyes flashing like a stag at
bay. Seize him! shouted Dunstan and
kynesige togsther. And the Benedic-
tines rushed upon him from every side
with oaths and curses. Plunging his
sword into the foremost, Eadwine loudly
shouted defiance. But ere he could with
draw his weapon again they had seized
and overpowered him. In vain he strug-
ged and tried TO hurl them from him,
In vain he shouted and threatened them
with death In vain the Queen screamed
and entreated them to 60"
it is painful to be made aware that royal
efforts such az these were of no avail. In
the next chapter, entitled VISIONS of
Sorrow" we learn Of the anguish OF the
Queen. When they dragged the King
from the royal chamber" we read, "the
Queen uttered n heart breaking cry and
fell to the ground as one stunned, The
anguish OF her heart was piteous to be-
hold. Bitter tears flowed from fountains
filled with sorrow. Pain was written deeply
over all her face. Her eyes, streaming
with the bitter tears, glared around wildly
Her hands pressed hard against her ears
in which were ringing and echoing the
foul words Dunstan had hurled at her,
Anon she rose. trembling and deaf-like
steadied herself moment, fitted hither
| and thither in a paroxysm of grief, ran
toward the door, shrieking 'Edwy. Edwy

my king my king then fell and swooned
away"
To the last Dunstnn was the evil genius
Of the King In the penultimste chapter,
entitled AN Angry Heaven" we come to
Eadwines finish. This IL the second chap
ter following the one called "Buttercups
and Blood" which relates the death Of the
Queen. From the dreadful chapter last
named we Gull these few frightful and sad
dening things: 'Hamstring her" cried
the feshy Knyesige with curse" Ham
string her! reared dozen voices under
Benedictine cowls.- Even sol cried
Dunstan, we'll pleased with the plan, smil-
ing fiendishly once again. And let the
deed be done forthwith! They laid her
on a bank of flowers by the wayside and
with the Kings own gilded seaS committed
the barbarous deed, and left her to die in
excruciating agony There! shouted the
fendish executioners." Among the sweet
spring flowers they left her, pure and fair
as any flower, writing in agony. The
daisies, hardening to her cry, fastened to
dip their pale-pink faces in her blood and
deepen the red Of their ruddy hearts. Inc
buttercups, in sympathy, renowned their
love of gold and gave themselves an oher-
! ing to the Queen. blackbird whistled
in a wood near by, and right above her n
skylark sang its song Of JOY high up in ire
hea ven Of God"
The King came to her in the next chapter.
He cried; "Elgiva Egiva' My Queen! My
| Queen" The story says simply in para
graph: His heart was broken" The royal
[ troops gathered round and wept. They were
not ashamed. They wiped not the tears that
| flowed down heir stern faces. No man sought
| to hide his eyes that eventide. The Queen
| flung her arms around the Kings neck
and cried: "Oh. Edwy! Edwy! Let me die!
Let ME die! My King My KING Again the
diminutive affects our feelings strangely
And so crying she swooned away again
and entered the Valley of the Shadow
