I were indeed false to my religion

to myself, it counts for nothing. Be-

be allowed to break the laws of Drus-

"But for their own sakes they can
not deny me now. 1t would rob the
people Of their belief in the priests"
"They will not deny you, but they
will seek for means to correct their
mistake without confusion to them
selves"
"Your highness, it would seem, has
little faith in the. priests" l said
gravely.
"Sir Verrall, 1 have a spirit within
me which cries out for something
more than legend-why I know not,

CHAPTER III.

CHAPTER ri.
MT CLOSED the door and fasten
III ed it and stretched myself
y6en96Y upon my couch, intending t.
Ssg& keep awake. The walls
around me might not be as solid as
they looked, but I was weary. My
nerves had been at high tension fol
hours, and nature asserted herself.
Sunlight filled the room when
awoke, and my first thought was one
Of thankfulness that no tragedy was
to be enacted in the square that morn
ing. My next thought was Of Organ
That he had been arrested by Vasca's
orders as an insult to me I had no
doubt, but I could see no way OF
, avenging the insult at present.
Bearing the priests warning In
mind, went out little during the
next three days. I attended to my
duties in the camp and visited the
guardroom each morning, but did not
linger to gossip with any Of my COM
rades. It was on the third day that
met Count Vasca. He approached me
in the most friendly manner. "You
have my sympathy regarding the 9th
er night, Sir Verrall," he said. "Most
of us know what it Is to be Temporal
rily under a cloud. You have heard
doubtless that her highness is waver-
ing with regard to the prisoners?"
II hear little since I am banished
II thought Lady Aldrida might have
kept you informed of what was going
forward"
II have not seen her since that
night, Sir Vasca. Besides, is she not
under as heavy cloud as amp
"The selfsame cloud, Sir Verrall, but
it will pass. You were unfortunate
enough to offend her highness some
what, but I have some power with
her, being her kinsman, and will
speak for you and for the lady,"
"You are generous, count, but l
would sooner plead my own cause"
"As you will. I offered as friend"
That day Organ returned, and, feel
ing that owed him some explanation
as to why I had not used every en-
deavor to release him, told him Of my
Punishment.
1.-THE prisoners may live, but they'll
be the death of us, Verrall, unless
you're careful. l wasn't brawling the
other night. For the life Of me could
not make out why I was arrested, but
now it all explained. Once you are
thoroughly out of favor we may as
we'll commit suicide to prevent worse
end"
'There is always Yadasara as ref
uge." 1 suggested.
AYE, If we can get there, I ask moth
ing better. But we've got to get there,
Verrall."
That evening the princess sent for
me. I had just concluded that my sus-
pense was not to be relieved that day
when one Of the princess guard came.
"Her highness' orders, and will you
follow me, Sir Verrall?'
We crossed the great hall, which
was in darkness, and went along many
corridors with many turnings, so that
should have been quite unable to
retrace my steps.
Presently we stopped, apparently In
the middle of a corridor.
"A moment, Sir Verrall. I will in
quire her highness' pleasure"
He drew back sliding door in the
wall, entered dimly lighted apart
ment and closed the door after him.
Only a minute or two elapsed before
the door was opened again, and the
man heckOned me-

+ entereu small anteroom almost
bare of furniture and dimly lighted,
but had no time to take particular
note Of anything for the guard I'M
mediately drew aside the curtains
which hung over door at the opposite
end of the room, and stood in large
apartment and in the presence of the
princess.
She was half reclining upon couch,
and had she studied the pose she could
not have chosen one more attractive.
Jasar was seated near her, and they
were alone, but it seemed to me that
others had been there recently, for the
rugs on two or three couches In the
room were askew, as though the occu-
pants had risen hastily. I wondered
who had been with the princess, for
it was evident that I had been brought
there secretly.
The princess moved slightly to 1ndt-
cate that she was aware Of my COM
ing, and, feeling rather insignificant
before this beautiful woman, l up
preached and" fell on my knee before
her.
"You have angered me extremely,
Sir Verrall," she said, land know
not whether I have acted rightly In
sending for you now"
II crave your pardon, your highness,
and ask for your good will again."
"You have my pardon. My good will
you must deserve"
"Your highness has only to COM
mand," answered.
She bid me rise and motioned me to
be seated. sat down little removed
from her.
"As l have forgiven 1 will not
speak of the other night. In your coun-
try courtesy may find different ex'
preston from that which it has here In
Drussenland. You are but stranger
among us and have therefore, per-
chance, some excuse"
"Pardon, your highness, but II I may
claim any excuse let me claim the one
which prompted my hasty action"
"And that?'
"Your highness expressed doubt
Of my loyalty. Your words cut so deep
~ that acted rashly."
"You acted rashly indeed, but that ia
forgiven. We will speak no more Of It,
The prisoners you pleaded for have not
yet been put to death. Thus far you
have persuaded me, yet I know not
how to act. AS princess, as the right
full sovereign Of Drussenland, I can
only administer the law; as a woman
I can hate the law, and this, which de-
mands the sacrifice of prisoners, is
most hateful, cruel and unjust. It
wanted no stranger knight to tell me
this"
II have made my petition; I will
urge you no more" answered.
"Regretting that you have urged so
much?" she asked.
NAY, your highness, but have used
all my weapons. l can now only bow
to your decision"
1T had been better had you reserved
your last weapon until now, Sir Yer
rail-. AS a woman it might have had
power to move me; it was powerless
to move the princess. l have sent for
you secretly tonight. My women had
retired before you came, and only !
Jasar and the guard have knowledge !
of your coming. You will not speak |
of it, either. Have you thought of the |
consequences to yourself if save the
lives of these prisoners?"
II have, but am not afraid"
1.-THE priests clamor for the sacri-
fee. The people clamor for it. You
have had many enemies, Sir Yer
rail-, since first you came to Drussen,
land, but with the priests against you. !
