CHAPTER ~.
Before the kinu.

When the curtain had fallen behind
his advisers, the young king threw
himself back upon his rude high seat
and rested motionless among his cush-
ions, his head hanging heavily upon
his breast
Crouching on her bench near the
door, Randalin watched him as a fly
caught in web watches the approach
ing spider. Her eyes followed his
rowing glance from spear to banner,
from floor to ceiling, in terrible antici-
patton. 1t approached her; it turned
aside; it passed above her, hesitated,
sank, touched her! Ashen white, she
staggered to her feet and faced him.
In the Trolls name. who are you2"
he calculated. How came you here?"
The pale lips moved, but no sound
came from them.
He made petulant gesture toward
the half-flled goblet. why do you
stand there making mouths? Drink
that and get a mans voice into your
throat, if you have anything to say to
me-"
"a mans voice!" The girl stared
az iIIll. ~ man NOIIt Hbn, like
lungfuls of fresh air, it entered into
her that she was not really the naked
tledgeling she felt herself. She was
in the tolls, surely, but there was a
shell around her. Glad to hide her
face for moment, she seized the
goblet and drained it slowly to the
last drop.
Leaning back in his seat, the king
took frowning measure of his guest,
from the toe of her spurred riding
boot to the top of the green cap which
she had forgotten to remove. With
her last swallow, he repeated his chal-
lenge.
Are you capable now of giving me
any reason why | should not have you
flogged from the camp? Is it your

am desirous to have tale-bearing boys
listening?"
She managed to stammer out, 81 en-
treat you not to be angry, Lord King.
l did not understand SIX of the words
you spoke-I beseech you to believe
it,"
Did you think you had fallen into
a bear pitt" the king asked with a
faint smile, that sharpened swiftly to
bitterness. after all, it would mat
ter little what anyone told Of me.
Without doubt your kin have already
taught you to call me thrall-bred and
witless."
That from the warrier whose foot
was already planted on the neck of
England! In her surprise, Randalin's
eyes met his squarely. BY no means,
King Canute; my father called you
the highest-minded man in the
world"
The young leader flushed scarlet,
flushed till he felt the burning, and
averted his face to hide it, He said
in a low voice, Many things have
been told of me that l count for
naught, but this-this has not been
said of me before. Tell me his
name
He was called Erode. the Dane of
Avalcomb." The red mouth trembled
a little He is dead now. He was
slain last night, by Norman Leof-
winesson, who is Edric Jarls thane."
AS both horseman and sentinel had
started at that name, so now the
King Strengthened into alertness, for
getting everything else.
"Ieofwinesson? What know you of
him or his Jarl? Where are they?
When saw you them?'
Last night; when they lay drunk
in my fathers castle at Avalcomb.
1t was spoken among them that they
would join you at sunset to-day"
Canutes hand shot out and grpped
her arm and shook it. you know
this for certain? I will have your
tongue if you lie to me! You are
sure that they intend coming-that it
is not their intention to play me false
and return to Edmund"
81 know what l heard them say,
Lord King. They said that Edrc
Jarl had marched on to st. Adams
to lie there overnight. Leofwines-
son stopped at Avalcomb because he
wished to vent his spite upon my
father. They will be here before the

motloning toward the other flagon.
Fill up and we will drink a toast to
their loyalty and to your beard; they
appear to be equally in need of en-
couragement." Draining it off, he sat
staring down into the dregs, twirling
the stem thoughtfully between his
fingers.
By the time she had shifted her
weight twice for each foot, the petit
toner ventured to recall him.
at gives me some hope, to hear
what you say about suspecting Edric
Jarl," she said timidly; for that
makes it appear more likely that you
will be willing to give me justice on
his man."
"Justice?" The Kings mind came
back to her slowly, as from an i'm
mense distance. by Thor, had for
gotten! Yes, certainly; l will be
knglike once. Stand here before me,
while | question you"
She caught her breath rather sharp
ly as she stepped forward. Would
she be able to tell a straight story?
Tell me first how you are called?"
Il am called Fridtjof Professor"
Erode of Avalcomb! Now | know
where l have heard that name; my
father spoke it often, and always with
great respect. 1t will so hard with
me if l must return an unfavorable
answer to his son. Tell me how his
death was brought about"
Randalin thrust the sobs back from
her throat; the tears back from her
eyes. She began slowly: "Leofwin-
esson set upon him last night, at the
gate of the castle, and slew him He
had five-and-fifty men, and my father
but twelve-besides me; he-we-
had just come in from hunting. Then
he rode over my fathers body into
the castle" She stopped uncertainty
to glance at her listener.

comes it that you escaped un,

Randalin hesitated. Would it not
be safer If she could deny altogether
the existence of daughter of Erode !?
But no. that was not possible, in the
face of what Norman might reveal.
She began very, very carefully: 1T
happened that my mother died before
we came to Avalcomb; and my father
had but one daughter. She was called
Randalin. A-her thrall-woman told
me that Leofwinesson pursued her to
