CHAPTER 2 MOONLIGHT-AND FAIR LADY

It was a warm, still night, lit by the soft radiance of rising moon and full of the languorous frag- rance of honeysuckle, while from the shadowy woods stole the soft, bubbling notes of nightingale.
 Sir Richard, glancing at his com panion, espied a glistering tendril of hair, a slim. proudarched foot and a voluminious cloak.
 "Aye me, ma'am," he exclaimed, signing heavily, "tis night most apt to sighful dalliance. how say you?" That I would be alone. sir"
 May. but consider yon bright moon"
 Indeed, 'tis very bright" she answered. "'Too bright for some folks-highwaymen. for instance"
 "Gad-so!" he exclaimed, "'High. waymenl' you say. Now I wonder why?"
 They had reached the high-road by now, stretching white before them.
 Here, sir she said, T will give you good-nightl"
 (Which I return, mann, with all my heart" he answered with care less bow. " Tis night to be en- joyed; let us go on.'
 "So you will afflict me with your presence sir?"
 Gladly, ma a'm-until I weary, or you reach your friends or carriage or inn, or"
 "Sir, you grow but the more de- testable."
 Perfectly, mann! And our near est inn is the Guyfford Arms, two miles hence Walking at four mile! to the hour thus gives you but hal an hour to endure the inflictior of my company, and in half al hour you may tell me of myself my sins and frailties, than I am a present sensible of-mine ears at tend you"
 ''So be it, sir, and now shall they jingle" She tossed back her hooC with sudden angry gesture, show ing him all the proud scornfu beauty of her face.
 T know you, Sir Richard Guyf ford, for one of infamous life, ; menace to all purity and inno cence."
 "Egad!" he exclaimed, shakinI his head. "and know myself very Cato, fleeing Woman like plague! . E. Continue, beg!"
 T know you for drunken satyr- a cold hearted libertine-"
 Now, 'pon my soul, mann, yo, shock me"
 And oh, most vile = a black mailer of women who"
 Even as she gasped at his fearfu oath she was stayed and swung b. powerful hand to behold a face s' transfigured that her courageous spirit quailed at last, and, bowini proud head, she covered her fac, against those awful, glaring eyes.
 "You are indeed Sir Richart Guyfford?" she inquired, in voic' strangely hushed.
 Never doubt it. am he, main upon my honor"
 And now as he went beside hei his sombre eyes staring down a white road or up at brilliant moor she looked at him often and witt ever-increasing unease.
 Come, proceed. lady, I beg! And now his eyes were twinkline his lips twisted in their sardoni smile; she met his eyes and spoke. yet in her tone was subtl change.
 sTis said, Sir Richard. that yol were a rebel and condemned t death"

 "And-the lady?" "Oh, married. mann, married. But what more O myself?" Well" said she unwillingly, "tis rumored you do consort with thieves-highwaymen-"
 Nay, nay, gentlemen O the High Toby, ratherl Twas one such as saved my head for me, contrived the miracle of my escape, a clever dog and hath my abiding gratitude. And wonder is your inn" And he nodded where, across the village green and close beside square church tower, rose the chimneys of the Guyfford Arms, great rambling place of jutting gables.
 They were close upon the inn when from the wide-flung case mentment of an upper chamber rose a sudden tuneful roar and the words
 of Helen we the praises sing,
 Our love and worship tellin',
 To Helen. let our glasses ring, To Hel, to Hel, to Helen"
 "Ay, hark to 'em!" said Sir Richard. Poor fools, sorry, mis- guided wretches, tossing down their bumpers to some regardless she who is probably smiling on another at this moment"
 Here, finding the lady had gone on and was walking swiftly away he hurried after her.
 But the inn, ma'm-will you not cnter?"
 No, sir"
 "Eh, because O the poor wretch es' dismal howls?"
 Because I am going home, sir"
 "Home?' he repeated.
 T am living in the lane beyond the toll-gate." 1 He made no answer, but walked in frowning thought, and when he had gloomed beside her thus some distance, she laughed sud- denly.
 "you are, I think, by nature a morose creature?" she inquired
 Why, I'm better company when drunk, they tell me-" he answered. And I suppose the worst name any woman may answer to is-- Helenl"
 "Oh, sir! And why?"
 Well, she was a wanton, brought ruin and destruction on brave people. A somewhat wholesale lady for your ordinary woman is-"
 "Too good for your ordinary man. sir!"
