 I would if possible: but you would almost certainly be seen, and my dan- ger would be a hundred times greater" l Knew that if I put 1t in that way she would give in.
 It was now quite dark enough for my purpose, and I opened the door noiseiessly as possible and slipped out drizziing rain was falling and the wind was blowing hard. The sough of t in the olive trees close by was loud enough to drown any sound might make. But I mean to take no rtskss.

 The. path down from the door was asssteep as it was winding; but knew every inch of 1t and glided along to the intervening slice of rock behind which I expected to find the man on watch. There I doubled my caution, moving with the utmost care and at mere snaiPs pace.

 While I was hesitating in this per- plexity. the opportunity passed. and the two saw me. My fear was that they had been attracted to the place by the sound of the struggle with the sentinel; and I knew that If Beltano questioned me, my voice would betray my identity.
 I was wrong, however. They had not heard anything; and I soon found that a very different purpose had brought them together.
