CHAPTER XIV.
True to Her Love.

N/OLSENl torgave Sophy its dead and wounded
Her popularity bazed up in a last
fierce, Pickering fire. The guns were taken;
they would not go to Slavna; they would
batter the walls of Volsen into fragments. Slavna
might be deted again. That the great thing
to VoSen1, and it made little account of the snake
like line which crawled over st. Peters Pass and
down to Dobrava and on to Slavna. Let Slavna-
hated Savna-reckon with that! And if the snake,
another like it, came to Vo1sen? Well, that was
better than knucklng down to Slavna.
Tonight King Sergius was avenged, and Queen
Sophy had returned in victory. For the first time
since the King death the bell of the ancient church
rang Joyously, and men sang and Toasted in the
gray city of the hills. Thirty from Volseni had
beaten hundred from Savna; the guns were at
the bottom of the Krath-it was enough. If Sophy
had hidden them, they would have streamed down
on Slavna that night in of those fierce raids in
which their forefathers of the Middle Ages had loved
to swoop upon the plain.
But Sophy had no decisions. She saw her crown
that heeting phantom ornament, fifty foreseen
in the visions of a charlatan-passing from her
brow, without sigh. She had not needed Zerko-
vitch's arguments to prove to her that there

to have it So she had done enough. Sorrow
had not passed from her face but serenity had
come upon it in fuller measure. She had struck

recovered you will meet him again all events;

You assume that am coming with you to Paris

Zerkovitch said something about nerves and
temporary strain. But he performed this
homage to medical etiquette in a rather per-
functory fashion. He had never seen a woman
more composed or more obviously and per-
fectly healthy.
Sophy smiled and went on: But if I live, 1 am
