The Trusting Place.

~ n the very day that Murgh the Mes
senger sailed forth into that utter
most sea a young man and a maiden
met together in the Blythburgt
marshes near to Dunwich, on the eastern
coast of England. In this, the month of
February of the year 1346, hard and
bitter frost held Suffolk in its grip. The
muddy stream of BIyth, it is true, was
frozen only in places, since the tide
flowing up from the Southwold Har Dor
where it runs into the sea between that
ancient town and the hamlet of Walbers-
wick, had broken up the ice. But all else
was set hard and fast, and now toward
sunset the cold was bitter. Stark and
naked stood the tall, dry reeds. The
black birds and starlings perched upon
the willows seemed swollen into
feathery balls. the fur started on the
backs of hares and a four-horse vain
could travel in safety over swamps where
at any other time a schoolboy dared not
set his foot.
On such an eve, with the snow
threatening, the great marsh was
utterly desolate, and this was why
these two had chosen it for their meet
ing place. To look on they were a
goodly pair-the girl, who was clothed
in the red she always wore, tall, dark,
well shaped, with large black eyes and
a determined face, one who would make
a very stately woman; the man, broad
shouIdered. with gray eyes that were
quick and almost fierce, long limbed.
hard agile and healthy, one who had
never known sickness, who looked as
though the world were made for him
to master. He was young, but one and
twenty that day; and his simple dress,
a tuntc of thick wool, fastened round
him with leather belt, to which hung
a short sword, showed that his degree
was modest.
The girl, although she looked his
elder, in fact was only in her twentieth
year, though from her, who had been
reared in the hard school of that cruel
age, childhood had long departed. leav-
ing her ripened woman before her
time.
The pair stood looking at each other

the man, in his clear voice, why did

boldly, and the marsh being so cold
and so lonesome thought it suited to
my purpose. Does Gray Dick watch
