His own bloodshot blue eyes
shifted from the figure on the
cross to Sidonia. His face worked.
He rose, took a step toward her as
though drawn by cords, flung up
his hands with an inarticulous cry,
slowed round and ran clumsily
back upon his tracks, fleeing very
audlblyN into the wild.
Sidonia put her hand on the
cross again, as though to support
herself. After a minute she
laughed little. 1t was amazing
to brighten instead of being fright
ened oneself. Something in the
manner in which this mad person
had looked at her reminded her
of a starving dog shifting toward
a spitted capon, but afraid of the
fire before which it revolved.

What next? Wonder stood
upon the right and danger on the
left. Anything might issue from
the dim, aurate caverns of the
trees-a strayed princess trailing
brocade over the leaf drifts, or
unicorn. But in a couple of
hours, or less it would be dark
dark and cold as death. Already
there was a chill in the tranced
air like that of tomb. 1t would
be a night of frost.
Sidonia followed the wood path,
taking the opposite direction to
that from which the anchorite had
come. She followed for a long
while, seeing nothing except rab-
bits, the amber dusk deepening i'm
perceptibly under the rigid
branches of the trees, above whose

SUBMITS was the low, Opaque sky
A strain of music. Someone was
playing in the forest. No mortal,
surely. The girl cautiously APP
preached the sound on cold and
tired feet. A leaf or two flickered
down on her like golden tears.
The wood path died in small,
sere glade beyond whose outer
fringe of sapling poplars was-the
high road. A-youngish man, fair,
and rather short, stood in this open
space drawing a monotonous yet
piercing and plantive air from a
vielle. A lanky fellow, with
tooth missing and wearing the
peaked and belled headgear of
lester, sat on the ground, alter
nately eating black bread and
chewing a pigs trotter = pock-
pitted man sat by him, crosslegged,
his cap with its peacock's feather
very much on one side. He was
munching an apple and suddenly
took four more from a wallet and
tossed them aloft, keeping them
there with the ease of practice.
"Good, lad" said the jester,
speaking with his mouth full as the
playing ceased.
And then Sidonia came slowly
out from the trees looking very
small and young. The fiddler saw
her. He made little bow, digni-
fled but rather comical. His blue
eyes, frank and smiling as a
child's, looked straight into hers.
"Oh, here's company said the
jester. "Sit down; there's plenty
of room"
"Have an apple ?" said the pock-
pitted man. He threw one and
s.donia caught i. with a laugh.
A fallen log invited WEAKNESS
and she seated herself upon it
decorously - lady-fashion. She
crossed her neat ankles. She took
bite out of the apple. But all
the while her eyes were on the
fiddler. He had a straight nose;
his fair hair had curl in it.
"She likes your looks, Francis"
said the jester, his mouth full of
pigs trotter.
Sidonia flushed a little. The
fiddler, who had sat down by her,
laughed shortly like an embar-

raised boy. "Do you live in the
forest?' he said.
'No," said Sidonia. She hesi-
tated. "That is-I-there's vii
lage not far from here"
She was afraid, suddenly, that
if she told the truth some one
would point finger at her as the
witch's daughter. She desired that
the fiddler should not know of this.
He was youngish, pleasant-look-
ing. AS she bit circumspectly at
her apple she was on the defensive.
Where do you live?" she said.
Everywhere"
He smiled at her.
"He's the same as US fellows"
said the jester. "Picks up living
where he can find it, and if folks
throw him silver penny thanks
heaven and goes to bed drunk"
The fiddler laughed his boyish,
embarrassed laugh.

at the girl. "Do you know how

CHAPTER III.

THE grayish, wooden Christ was
nearly life-size. The battered
figure appeared fraught with
infinite pain. Sidonia drew slowly
near to it. She looked at the
thorn-crowned head, at the iron
nails through the hands and feet.
at the deep wound in the side.

Several were in pursuit.
'Haw-hawr 1t was the bray
ing laugh of the pedler, and the
yapping of his dog was mingled
with it.
Sidonia ran for her life. Be
hind her was-fire. The muscles
of her legs trembled under her.
There was a taste of blood liz her
mouth. Tree roots under drifted
leaves almost tripped her. Twigs
slapped her across the face. She
must not be caught.
Her heart was beating so that
it must surely burst in another mo-
ment. She felt physically sick.
Her knees were failing her. There
was tall bracken about her. She
dropped and lay like hare that
listens for the hunt to go past.
Leaf-deadened tramplings came
to her. Nearer. Someone was
moving through crisp waist-high
bracken close at hand. She held
in her breath. She was about tc
be discovered.
eli, boysl She's slipped usp
The speaker was within four feet
of the cringing girl.
"She's changed her skin. A
black fox ran in front of us as we
lost herr This voice was some
distance away.
Lets get back-or we'll miss
the burning, fellows"
More tramplings - receding.
Sidonia released her breath in a
great gasp. Every strung muscle
of her went slack. She was abb
ject, her face in the damp leaves
that smelt as musty as old clothes
in a chest. A series of little dry
sobs shook her.
Quiet-a tranquility like that of
a Swallowed pool whose mirror is
unbroken by any rising fish.
Sidonia lifted herself until she sat
upright. The brownish-amber
dusk of the forest encompassed
her. The hunt had missed her
she was as safe now as an escaped
rabbit. That morning she had
meant only to go out little way
from the walled town to pick up
firewood on the forests fringes-
the forest where there were rob-
bers, wild boars, wolves; wells and
springs that cured all diseases; her.
mits, tree-women crowned with oak
leaves. dwarfs, and, it was ru-
mored, a dragon. 1t had lured
her, her very fears expectant and
delicious. Beneath the surface of
her thoughts she had hoped to meet
some invincible lover - Grail
knight or pallid and handsome
demon. And so she had gone
deeper into the wirAless leaf
mists-the Summer-shrouds that
were more beautiful than Summer.
All was still as a cathedral. She
got up slowly. She must begin to
90 back. If she could find the
way.
The deadened yet tingling
rumor of distant scream. Again.
Was that the smell of burning?
Oh-horriblei Sidonia thrust fin
gers into her ears. Now she could
hear nothing, but her mind still
heard. That smell! Still stop
ping up her ears, she began to run
through bracken, leaf-drifts,
mists of lea -es. A dappled doe
sprang up and fled off before her.
Rabbits scuttled. Ahead, some
thing pallid glimmered-the gray
white, weathered figure of a
wooden Christ, nailed to tall
cross, where TWO dim wood-paths
met.
Sidonia halted. She had un-
stopped her ears. All was quiet.
Not leaf flickered. Not a leaf
fell. There was only the raw. in
cense-smell Of mould, dead fern
and dying leaves.
