B long an the world may Utt found no 1 o'ter
rule for n man's llfo ihsn that lie should In-
rllno his mind In movii In charity , rest In
1'rovldcnce. and tnni upon the poles of truth.
This condition says ho. Is heaven upon rarth.
nnd althoiiRh what touches truth may bet
tor befit the philosopher who uttered It than
the vulgar and unlearned , for whom , perhaps ,
( t Is a counsel too high , and therefore dan
gerous , whut rumen bpforo should surely be
craven by i-nrh of us on the walln of mtr
licnrts. Kor any innn who lived In the days
that I have seen must have found much need
of trust In Providence , and by no whit the
less of charity for men. In such Irust and
charity I hnvo striven to write ; In the like
I pray you to read.
I , Simon Pale , wns born on the seventh day
of the seventh month In the jear of our Lord
1CI7. Thi- date was Rood In that the divine
number was thrice found In It. but evil In
that It fell on n time of sore trouble both foi
the nation nnd for our own house ; when men
liad begun to go about saying that If the Icing
would not keep Ilia promises , it was likely
thai ho would la-op his head as little , when
they who had fought for freedom were sus
pect Ing that victory had brought now tyrants ,
when the vicar wan put out of his cure , and
my father , having trusted the king first , the
1'arllament afterward , nnd at last neither the
ono nor the other , had lost the- greater part
of his substance , and fallen from wealth to
straitened means. Such Is the common re
ward of an honest p.itrlntlam wedded to an
open mind. However the date , good or bad ,
was none of my doing , nor , Indeed , folks
whispered , n.u h of my parents , eliber , seeing
that destiny overruled the ulfalr , und llutty
Nasroth , the wlso woman , announced Us Im
minence iiioix' than a year beforehand. Kor
she predicted the birth on the very day
whereon I came Into the world within a tnUu
of the parish church , of u male child who
nnd the uttranco had certainly a lofty sound
about U should lovn what the king loved ,
linow what the king hid , and drink of the
king's cup.
Now. inasmuch as none lived within the
limits named by Hetty Nasroth , save ? on the
ono side sunJry humble laborers , \\hcso
.progeny could expect no such fate , aral on
the other my Lord and Lady ( Juinton. who
were wcddcil but a liionth before my birth
day , the prophecy was fully as pointed as it
3iad any need tc be , and caused to my parents
no email HUM .innings. It was the tlilul
clause or torin of the prediction that gave
meet concern alike to my mother and to my
fa-Uior ; to my mother because- , although of
discreet mind and a sou ml church woman ,
she was from her earliest ycar. < a rechablto ,
end had mover heard of a king that drank
water ; and to my father because of his de
cayed estate , which made it Impossible for
him to contrive how properly to fit me for
my predestined company. "A man should
not drink the king's wine without giving
itho king as good , " my father reflected rue
fully. Meanwhile , I , troubling not at all
about the matter , was content to prove Hetty
right In point of the date , and leaving Hie
rent to the future , achieved this triumph
for her moat punctually. Whatsoever may
await a nvin en his way through the world ,
ho can hardly begin life better than by keep-
liiG bis faith with a lady.
She wa * a strange old woman , this Hetty
Nasroth. and wculd likely enough have f.ired
Ibadly In. . the time of the klng'c father. Now
thcro was bigger game than witches afoot ,
aad nothing wcrac betel her than the scowls
of her 'neighbors ' and the frightened mockery
of children. She made free reply with curses
nnd dark muttcrings , but me she loved a-3
Ibclng the child of her vision , and all the
moro because , encountering her as I rndu
In my mother's arms , I did net cry lint held
outi my arms , crowing an1 : ! struggling to got
to her ; wherent sud < ! cily. and to my mother's
great terror , she exclaimed , "Thou rec'st
Satan ! " and fo'.I to weeping , a thing which ,
as every woman liv the parish know , a per-
nrri absolutely possessed by the evil one can
by no means accomplish ( unless , Indeed , a
bare three drop * squeezed from the left eye
may usurp the name of toirs ) .
But my mother shrank from her and wouhl
not allow her to touch mn ; nor was it until
I had grown older aivl ran about the. village
alone that the old woman , having tracked
mo to a lonely spot , took mo In her arms ,
mumbled over my head some words I did not
understand and kissed me. That ft mole

barniiBmurit to the vicar lilmsolf , who , heliiK
a Icaincd man and deeply read In du-
monolOKy , Krleved from IIH ! heart that thu
witch dlJ not play her part better.
"It Is , " wild ho to my father , "u monstrous
lapse. "
"Nay , It la a sign of grace , " urKtil my
mother
"It Is , " said my father ( anil I do not know
whether he spoke perversely or In earnest )
"a matter of nn moment. "
Now , being steadfastly determined that my
boyhood ul-nll bo less tedious In the telling
than It was In thu living foii I longed a | .
-wuya to bo a man and hated my green anil
petticoat-governed days I will pass forth
with to .tho hour when I reached the age
of IS years. My dear father was then In
heaven and old Hetty had found , as was be
lieved , another billet. Hut my mother lived ,
and the vicar , like the king , had come tc
his own again , and I was 11 vo feet eleven
In my Blockings , and there was urgent necO
that 1 should set about pushing my way ami
putting money In my puree ; for our laiuh
had not returned with the king and then
was no more Incoming than might serve tc
keep my mother and sisters In the entato ol
gentlewomen ,
"And on. that matter , " observed the vicar ,
stroUIng Ills nose with lit * forePORer , a * hi *
haMt was In moments of perplexity , "lletty
Xasroth'fl prophecy Is of rmall service. For
thu dolngH on which she louche * Arc likely
to be occasions of uxpfnso rather than
sources of sain. "
"They would ho money wasted , " said my
mother , gently , "ono awl nil of them. "
The vicar looked a llttln doubtful.
"I will wrlto a sermon on that theme , "
said he , for this waa with him a favorite
way out of mn argument. In truth , the vicar
lovoj the prophecy , at oftnn a quiet , student
loves a thing that echoes of the world which
ho lies shunned.
"Yon 'must write dow % , for mo what the
klni ? says to you , Simon. " he told mo once.
"Snppr.se. sir , " 1 suggested , mischievously ,
"that I ! should not be lit for your eye ? "
"Then wrlto It , Simon , " he answered ,
pinching my ear. "for my unilerstandliiR. "
It was well enough for the vlear's wlilmsl-
cal fancy to bus/ himself with Ilelty N'as-
roth's iirophrcy , half-believing , half-mocklrB ,
never forgetting , nor disregarding , but I. who
am after all th most concerned , doubt
whether such a dark utterance be n wholesome -
some thtiiR to hive round a young man's
neck. The dreams of youlh grow rank
enough without such watering. The predic
tion was always In my mind , nllurlng nnd
Untal7.lng ! ns a tez.'lng girl who puts her
pretty face ticut yours , safe that you dare
not kiss It. What It said' 1 inured en , what
Is flald not I neglected. I dedicated my idle
hours to It , and not appeased , It Invaded
my seasons of business. Rather tlun seel :
my own path , I left myflclf to Its will and
hearkened for Its whispered order * .
"It WES the same , " observed my mother ,
sadly , "with a certain rook maid of my sis'
tor's. It was foretold that she should marrj
her master. "
"And did she .not ? " cried the- vicar , with
oara all pricked up.
"She changed her rcrvlcr every year , " said
my mother , "seeking the likeliest man , until
at last none would hire her. "
"Slic should have stayed In her first serv
ice. " said the vicar , shaking hla head.
"Hut her first master had a wife , " re
torted niy molher , triumphantly.
"I had one once myself , " said the vicar.
The argument , with which his widowhood
supplied the vlnr , was sound and unanswer
able. nnd it suited well with my humor to
Iciirn from my mother's cook maid and wait
patiently on fate. Hut what avails an ar
gument , lie it ever so sound , against an
empty purse ? It was declared that I must
seek my fortune , > et on the method of my
sojrcli home ( inference arose.
"Von must work. Simon , " sa'ld my nlster
Lucy , who was betrothed to Justice Bir-
nard , a young 'squire of good family and
high repute , but mighty hard 01 Idle va
grants and free with the Alecks for revellers.
"You must pray for guidance , " said my
sister Mary , who was wedded to a silntly
clergyman , a prebend , too , of the cathedral.
"There Is , " wald I. stoutly , "nothing of
such matters In 'Hetty ' Nasroth'a prophecy. "
"They arc taken for granted , dear hey , "
said my mother , gently.
The vicar rubbed his nose.
Yet not those excellent and. zealous
counselors proved right , but the vicar and I.
l''or had I gone to London as they urged
instead of abiding where I w.is. agreeably
to the vicar's argument and my own In
clination , it < s a great question whether the
plague Would not have proved too strong for
Hetty Nasroth. and her prediction gone to
lie with me In a death pit.
As things betel , I lived , hearing only
dimly , and , a it were , from afar off of that
Sieat calamity and of the horrors tint best
the city. For the disease did not conic
our way , and wo moralized on the sins of
the town folk with sound bodies and con
tented minds. We were happy in our health
and in our virtue , and not disinclined to ap
plaud God's judgment that smote our erring
brethren , for too often the chastisement of
onti sinner feeds another's pride. Vet the

near me , for It brought fresh tenants to

where the vicar bad dwelt till the loyal

the vicar , nothing loth , moved back to his
Now , I was walking one day , as I had full
license and leave to walk , In this avenue of
Qiilnton manor , when I Haw. first , what I
had ( If I am to itoll the truth ) come to ape ,
towlt , the figure of young Mistress lljrbani ,
daintily arrayed 'in a white summer gown.
Harbar.1 was pleased to hold herself
haughtily toward nil , for siie wan an heiress
and of a house that had not fallen in the
world as bad as mine. had. Yet we were
frlcndii , for we sparred and rallied , pho giv
ing offense , and I taking It , she pardoning
my ludeness and I accepting forglvciic&i ,
wlilio my lord and my lady , perlups , think
ing mo too low tor fear , and yet high
crotigh lor favor , showed mo much klnlness.
My lord , indeed , would often jest with me
on the great fate foretold me in Hetty Nas-
roth's prophecy.
"Yet , " ho would say , with a twinkle In
his eye. "the kins has strange secrels , and
there is some strange wine in his cup , and
to Icvo what he loves " but ot thla point
the vicnr , who chanced to bo by , twinkled
also , but shifted the c.nversatlon to some
thomc which did not touch the king , his se
crets. Ills wine , or whnt ho loved.
Thus thin I saw. as I say , the slim , tall
figure , the dark hair and the proud eyes of
lUHbara Quinton ; and the ey.s wcro Hash
ing In anger as their owner turned away
from what I had no : looked ! to EC In Har-
liara's company. This waa another damsel ,
of lo"or stf-tnro anil plumper figure , dressed
full as prettily as Harbara herself , and
laughing wl''h ' m.st merry lips and iindor
t-yis that half hid thorns-elves in an oullpso
of mirth. When Hirbnra saw mo she did
not , as hrr custom \.is , feign not to HCO mo
till I thrust my prt-sence on her , but rail
to me ai once , crying very Indignantly.
"Simon , who Is this girl ? She has dared to
tell me that my gown Is of coniury make ,
and hangs like an old smock on n beanpole * . "
"Mistress Harbara , " I answered , " .who
hocds tl'o make if the gown when the we iron
Is of divine make ? " I waa young then and
did not know that to compliment herself at
Hie expense of her apparel Is not the bcjt
way to plea.io a woman.
" \ou atu silly , " said Harbara. "Who Is
she ? "
"Tho girl , " I said , crestfallen , "Is , they
tell me , from London , and she lodges v.'Uli
her mother In your gardener's cjttage , Hut
I didn't look to Hnd her here In the avc-
nito. "
"You shall not again , If I have my way , "
said Darbara. Then she added abruptly and
shiirply. "Why do you look at her ? "
Now it was true that I waa looking at tha
stranger , and on Barbara's question I looked
the harder.
"Pho U mighty pretty , " said I. "Iea she
not seem BO to you , Mlstresa Harbara ? " And ,
almplo though I was , I spoke not altogether
in simplicity.
"I'rotty ? " echoed Ilarhara , "And pray
whut do yon know of prcttltnoas , Master
Simon ? "
"What I have learned at Quluton manor , "
I answered with a bow.
"That doesn't prjvo her pretty , " retorted
the angry lady.
'There's more than one way of It , " said I.
discreetly , and I took a step toward the
visitor , who stood t > omo ten yards from us ,
laiiKhlr.g ttlll and plucking a flower to pieces
In her lingers.
"Sho is not known to you ? " asked Barbara ,
perceiving niy movement.
"I can remedy that , " said I , smiling1.
Never since the world began had youth
been a more faithful servant to maid than I
to Hatbara Qulntou. Yet , because , If a iman
lib down , the best of girls will set her pretty
foot on his neck , and also from my love of
a thing that Is new , I was thoroughly re.-
solvp-1 to accost the gardener's guest , and my
purpose was not altered hy Barbara's scorn
ful toss of her llttlo head as she turned
away.
"It I * no more than civility , " I protested ,
"to ask after her huulth , for , coming from
London , slip ran but Just have escaped the
I'lflgUP. "
Harbara tossed her head again , declaring
plainly her opinion of my excuse.
"Hut If you desire in ? to walk with yon "
I began.
"There Is nothing I thought of less , ' she
interrupted. "I came hero to bo alono. "
"My pleasure lies In oiieylr.it you , " Mid I.
and I atood bareheaded while Barbara , with
out another glance at me , walked off to
ward the housp. Half penitent , yet wholly
obstinate , I watched her go. She did not
once look over her shoulder. Had she but
a truce to that. What lussed Is enough ;
with what might have my story would
stretch to the world's end. I smothered m/
remorse and wont tip to Ihe stranger , blldliiff
her good-day In my most polite nnd courtly
mariner. She smiled , but at what I knew
not. She seemed little more than a child ,
U ! years old or I" at the most , yet there waa
no confusion In her greeting of mo. Indeed ,
nhi > was moat marvelonsly at her COSP , for
on my salute she cried , lifting her hands In
feigned amazement :
"A man. by my faith , a man In this pluco ! "
Well pleased to be called n man , 1 bowed
again.
"Or at least , " she added , "what will bo one
If it please heaven. "
"You may llvo to ace It without growing
wrinkled , " said I , striving to conceal my an
noyance.
"And one that has repartee In him ! Oh
marvelous ! "
"Wo do not all lack wit In the country ,
m-vhini. " said 1 , simpering as I supposed
the court gallants to simper , "nor since the
plngr.u came to Loi.don beauty. "

that the village would be the worse by B-.I

civility won mo nothing but the haughtiest
courtesy and a taunt.

"Kven so , madam , and from such Iwoks
as your eyes furnish. " And for all her all"
of mockery I was , as I remember , much
pleased wl'.h Mils speech. 'It ' had come from
some wcll-thumbfil romance , I doubt not.
I was ever an eager reader of such silly
things.
She conrtcslod low , laughing up at me
with roguish eyes and month.

speaks. "
"It Is my name , madam , at your service.
Hut the gardener has played me a trick :
for now I have nothing to give In exchange
for your name. "
"Nay , you have a very pretty nosegay In
your hand. " said she. "I might be per
suaded to barter my name for It. "
The nosegay that was In my hand I had
gathered and brought for Darbara Quinton ,
I and I still meaii't ' to use it as a peace nffcr-
I Intf. Hut Harbara had treated me harshly ,
and the stranger lonked l.n&lngly at the
' nosegay.
"The pardoner Is a niggard with his flow
ers , " she said wilh a coaxing smile.
"To confess the truth , " said .1 , wavering
In mv purpose , "the nosegay was plucked
for another. "
"It will s.niPll the sweeter. " she cried with
a laugh. "Nothing gives flowers .such a per
fume ! " And she held out a wonderfully
small hand toward my nosegay.
"Is that a London lcssn ? " I asked , hold
ing the ( lowers away from her grasp.
"It holds good In the country , also , sir :
wherever. Indeed , there Is a man to gather
flowers and more than ono lady who loves
smelling them. "
"Well. " said I. "the no c ay Is yojrs at
the price , " nnd I held It out to her.
"The price ? What , do you deslro to know
my nnmo ? "
"Unless. Indeed , I may call you one. of my
own choosing , " said I with a glanea that
should have been irresistible.
"Would you use It in speaking of me to
Mich-ess Harbara there ? No. I'll giro you
a name to call me by. Yon may eall mo

"Cydarla ! A fine name. "
"It is. " said she carelessly , "as gond as
any ether. "
"Hut Is thoio no ether to follow it ?
"When did a poet ask two names In head
his sonnet ? And surely you wanted mine
for a sonnet ? "
"Fo be It. Cydnrla , said I.
"So bo it. Simon. And Is not Cydarla ns
pretty as Harbara ? " " , , , . . , . , . ,
"It has a strange sound , said I , but It is
well enough. "
"And now the nosegay ! ' , , " , . , ,
"I mvat pay a reckoning for this , I sighed ;

She took ft. her face all alight with smiles ,
and burled her nose In it. I stood looking at
her , caught by her pretty ways nnd graceful
boldness. Hey though I was , 1 had been right

beauty ; here were two to start with , hers and
Barbarr.'fl. She looked up and , finding my
gaze on her. made p. llttlo grimace as though
It worn only what she had expected , and gave
her no morn ronccrn than pleasure.
Yo" at such n look Barbara would hive
turned cold and distant for nn hour or more.
Cydarla. smiling In scornful indulgence
dropped mo another moeklng courtesy , end
made as though nho would go her way. Yet
alio did not go , but stood with her head half
averted , a glance straying toward me from
tlm corner nf her eye , while with her tlnj
foot she due the gravel of the avenuo.
"It Is a lovely place- thin park , " said she
"Hut Indeed It's often hard to find the wn <
about It. "
I W H not backward to take her hint.
"If you had a guide , now " I began.
"Why , yes , If I had a guide , Simon , " BI < !
whlnpered , gleefully.
"You could Hnd the way , Cydarla , and your

"Most charitably engaged. Hut then "
ho paused , drooping the corners of htr
mouth In sudden despondency.
"But what then ? "
'Why , then , Jllstress Barbara would bo
alone. "
I hesitated. I glanced toward the house. I
looked at Cydarla.
"Sho told mo that she wished to be alone , "
said I.
"No. How did ulio say It ? "
"I will tell you all about that an wo go

OHAPTKIl II. TUB WAY OF YOUTH.
The debate Is years old ; not , Indeed , quite
so old as the world Blnce Adam and ICve can.
not , for want of opportunity , have fallen
out over It , yet descending to us from un
known antiquity. But It has never yet been
aet at rest by general consent. The quarrel
over passive obedience Is nothing to U. It
spouts mich a email matter , though , for the
dcbato I mean turns on no greater question
than this ; May a man who owes allegiance
on mo before you venture them on your
friends , sir ? " she asked.
"I am at your mercy , Mistress Barbara , "
I pleaded. "Are woto , part enemies ? "
She1 made me no answer , but , I seemed lo
see a softening In her face as she turned
away toward thf window , whence wire to lie
sctn the stretch of the lawn Bind , the park
muadems beyond. 1 believe that with a llttlo
more coaxing she would have pardoned me ,
but at that instant , by another stroke of
perversity , a small figtue sauntered across
the sunny fields. The fairest sights may
some-time. } come amiss.
"CjdarU ! A fine name , " said Barbara ,
with culling lip. "I'll wager she has reasons
for giving r.o ctiier. "
"Her mother gives another to the gar
dener , " i reminded her meekly.
"Names are a easy given as as kisses , "
she retorted. "As for Cydarla , my lord says
it is a name out of a play. "
All th3 ! v.hlle we had stood at the window ,
watc'i'iig C > elria's ll ht feet trip acrc.-s the
meadow , and her bc-.Miet swing wantonly in
her hand. But now Cydarla disappeared
among the trunks of the beech trees.
"See , she Is gone , " bald 1 in a whisper.
"Sho Is gone , Mistress Barbara. "
Barbara understoo.i what I would say , but
she was resolved > to show mo no gentleness.
The soft tones of my voice had been for
her , but she would not accept their homage.
"You need not sigh for that before my
face , " said sho. "And yet. sigh It you will.
What Is it to me ? But the Is not gone far ,
and , doubtless , will not run too fast when ,
you pursue. "
"Whe'ti you are In London , " said I , "you
will think with remorse how Mil you used
me. "
"I shall never think of you at all. Dr > yon
forgot that there are gentlemen of wit and
breeding at the court ? "
"The devil Ily away with every one of
them ! " cried I , suddenly , not knowing then
how well the better part of 'them ' would
match their escort.
Barbara turned to mo ; there W'js a gleam ,
of triumph In the depths of her dark eyes.
"Perhaps when you hoar of me at court , "
she cried , "you'll be sorry to think how "
But she broke off suddenly and looked out
of the window.
"Ye.n'll find a husband there , " I suggested
bitterly.
"Like enough , " she said carelessly.
To be plain , I waa In no happy mood.
ITor going grieved me to the heart , and that
she should go thus Incensed stuaig mo moro
yc-t. I was jealous of every nun in London
town ; had not my argument , then , some
reason in It , after all ?
"Karo you well , madsme , " said I with a
heavy frown ami a sweeping bow. No player
from the Lane could have been moro -tragic.
"Faro you well , sir , I will 'not detain you.
for you have , I know , other farewells to
make. "
"Not for a week yet ! " I cried , goaded ton
show of cxnltatlcni that Cydarla stayed ue >
lung.
"I don't doubt that you will make noi\ \
use of the time , " she said , na with a Him
dignity she1 waved me to the door. VU'l an
she was , she nil caught or Inherited Iho
grand air that great ladles , use.
Gloomily I piweij out , to fall Into the
hands of my lord , who was walking en the
ton ace. Ho caught mo by the arm , laugh
ing In good-humored mockery.
"You've 1'ad a touch of sentiment , eh. you
rogue ? " said ho. "Well , there's llttlo harm
in that , tliico the girl leaves us tomorrow. "
"IrdeeJ , my lord.there was llttlo harm , "
said I , long faced and rucftill. "As little as
my laJy herself could wish. " ( At this ho
smiled and nod.led. ) "MIstreM Barbara will
hardly so much as look at me. "
Ho grow graver , though the smile still
hung about his lips ,
"They gossip about you In the village ,
Simon , " said lie. "Tako a friend's counsel
and drn't be so much with the lady at thu
ccttate. Come , I don't speak without rea-
scn. " Ho nodded at mo as a man nods who
mcaiM moro than lie will say. Indeed , not
word moro would he say , so that when I left
him I was oven moro angry than wheji I
parted from his daughter. And , the nature
of man being such as heaven has made It ,
what need to sa' ' that I bent my steps to
the cottage with all convenient speed ? The
only weapon of an Ill-used lover ( nay , I will
not argue ithd merlin of the case again ) waif
ready to my hand.
Yet my Impatience availed little , for there ,
on the seat that stood by the door , sat my
good friend the vicar , discoursing In pleasant - .
ant leisure with the I dy who named herself
Cydarla.
"It Is true , he was saying. "I fear It U
true , though you're over young to have
learned It. "
"There are schools , sir , " she returned with
a smile that had ( or fo It seemed to mo ) a
touch no more of bitterness It It , "where
such lessonn are curly learned. "
"They are best let alone , those schools , "
eald ho.
"And what's the lesson ? " I anked , draw-
lug nearer.
Neither answered , The vicar recited his
ha.ida on the ball of his cane .1.1 i.ti.iu.ly . .

ment when the fateful words , pronounced
ttlilt due eolpinnlty. left the vlrar's lips.
"It Is a stranso inylng. " ho rml ii. 'Of

She Rlnnred at me with merry eyon. vet
with a new sort of Interest. It Is s'r.uiKo
Ihe hold these supersllllons have nn all nf
us ; though surely the future oges will out
grow such childlshne.'s. "
"I don't know whnt tlm prophecy ntpai-n , "
a.ild she , "yet one thing sit lenst would * ppm
needful for It * fulfilment that Mr. n.iio
should become acquainted with the king. "
"Trnr , " ( rlpd the vicar eagerly. "Kvrry-
ihliiR stands on tint , and on that we stick.
For Slinnn cannot love where the king loves ,
nor know what the king littles , nor drink of
the king's cup , If he abide all his days horn
In Hatrhstead. Come , Simon , the plague Is
gone ! "
"Should I , then , be > gone , too ? " I asked.
"Yt to what end ? I him1 no friends In
London who would bring me to the notice
of the kins. "
The vlrar shook his head nadly. I had no
such friends , and the king had proved before
now thnt IIP could forget many n better
friend to the tlimne than my dear father's
open mind had made of him.
"Wo must \\alt , wp must wait still , " said
the vlrur. "Time will find a frlPivl. "
I'yd.irla had boconip pensive for a moment ,
but she looked up now , emlllng again , and
said to me :
"You'll soon have a friend In London. "
Thinking of Harbara , I answered gloomily ,
"Phe's no friend of mine. '
"I did not meat1 , whom you mean , " said
Cydar'a with twinkling eyes nnd not a whit
put nut. "But 1 also am going to Ixindon. "
1 Hiulled , for It did not seem as though she
would be a powerful friend , or nblo to open
any way for me. But she met my smile with
another so full of confidence and ehnlle-ngo
that my attention was wholly caught , an.l 1
did net heed the vicar's farewell as he rcae
and left us ,
"And would you serve me , " I asked , "If
joit had the power ? "
"Nay , put the question as you think It , "
said she. "Would you have the power to
servo me if you had the will ? Is not that
the doubt In your mind ? "
"And If It were' . " '
"Then , Indeed , 1 do not know how to
answer , but snauge things harpr-n there In
London , and it may bo that some day even
1 should have > some power. "
"And would you uoo It for mo ? "
"Could I do less on behalf of a gentleman
who lias risked his mistress's favor for my
poor cheek's sake ? " And she fell to laugh
ing again , her mlitli growing greater as 1
wrnl red In the face. "You mustn't blush
when yon come to town. " she cried , "or
they'll make a ballad on you and cry you In
the sl'oets fori monster. "
"The oftonw comes the cau-u. the rarer
shall the effect be , " said 1.
"Tho excuse Is well put. " she conceded.
"We bliould make a wit ot you In town. "
"What do you O.o In town ? " I asked
squaicly. looking her full In the cyrs.
"Pet haps sometimes. " she laughed , " \\hat
I have doiip once and to your good knowl
edge since I came to the country. "
Thus she would billle me with jesting an
swers as often as I sought to find out who
and what slip was. Nor had I better ff-r-
ttinp with her mother , for whom 1 liud snnll
liking , and who had , < w It seemed , no nii > rc
fo * mo. For she was short In her talk , and
frowned to nee me with her daughter. Yet
she Faw me , I must confess , ofseii with
Cydarla In the next v fpw days ,
and I was often with CydarU when
she did not see me. For Bar
bara wis : gone , leaving mo both s.irp and
lonely , all in the mood to Hnd rom.'nrt wSieve
1 could , and to see manliness In deseriion ,
and time was a charm about the girl that
grew on me insensibly and without my will ,
until I e-amo to love , not her ( ns 1 beliPv'nl
forgetting that love loves not to maik bis
boundaries too strictly ) , but her merry tem
per , her wit and cheerfulness. Howevev.
these things were mingled a.nl spiced wilh
ethers , mort attractive than all to unlliMlgeil
youth , an air of t'.ie wand anil < i Knowledge
of life which vilqucd my curiosity , and fa ;
( It seems so even to my lalo- mind as I lo'ik
back ) with bewitching Incongruity on the
laughing child's face und the unripe grape
of girlhood. Her moods were endless , vying
with ono another in an ever undetermined
struggle for the prize of greatest mlrJi p.iss-
ing into sly raillery. Now and then she1
would turn sad , sighing , "Holglio , that I
could stay in the sweet. Innocent couiu.y. "
Or atfaln she would show or ape an unoisy
conscience , wnisperlng , "All , that I were like
your Mistress Uarbara. " The next moment
she would bo laughing nnd jesting and mock
ing , as chough life wore n < aught but a g.-eat
many-colored bubble , and she the brightest
tinted gleam on it.
Are women so constant and men so forget
ful that all sympathy must go frnm me , and
all e'sttom be foi felted because , being of the
age of IS years , I vowed to llvo for or,3 lady
only on a Monday , and was ready to die for
another on the Satuulay ? Look back , bow
your heads and give me your hands , to kisser
or clasp.
Let not you and I inquire
What IMS been our pnst dnsiro ,
On whnt shephfr.is you have smiled ,
Or 'What ' nymphs have I liL-guiled ,
Lfiive it to Hie planetc' . ; oo ,
Whnt wo shall hereafter do ;
For thi' joys we may no.\ prove ,
Take advice of present love.
Nay , I will not set rny nnino to that In Its
fulness ; Mr. Waller is a little too free for
one who has been nicknamed < a Puritan to
follow him to the end. Yet there Is no truth
In it. Deny It , if you 'will. ' You are smllini ! ,
madame , while you deny.
It was a golden hummer's evening when I.
to whom the golden world waa nil a hell ,
came by tryst to the park of Quinton manor ,
there to bid Cydarla farewell. Mother and
Bisters had looked askance at me , the village
gossiped , even the vicar shook a klivdly head.
What cared' I ? By heaven , why was one
man a nobleman and rich , while another
Had no money in bis puisis and but ono
change to his back ? Was not love all In all ,
and why did Cydarla laugh at a truth so
map.lfest ? Then ) she was under the beech
tire , with her sweet face screwed up to a
burlesque of grief , her little' hand lying on
her hard heart as though it boat for me ,
iu.d her eyes tbo playground of a thousand
quick expressions. I strode up to her and
caught her hy the hand , saying no more thin
just her name , "Cydaria. " It scorned that
there was no moro to say ; yet she cried ,
liuighlng and reproachful ; "iHavo you no
vows for me ? Must I go without my
tribute ? "
I loosed her hand and stood away from her.
On my soul , I could not speak. I was tongue-
tied , dumb ns a dog.
"When you come courting In London , " she
"Then you make a sad lover , " she pouted.
"And I am glad to be going where lovers
are leas woebegone. "
"You look for love.ra In London ? " I cried ,
I that had cried to Uarbara well , I have
said my say on that.
"If heaven sent thorn , " answered Cydarla.
"And yen will forget me ? "
"In truth , yes , unless you como yourself
to remind me. I have no head for absent
lovers. "
"Hut If I como " I began. In a sudden
flush of hope.
She did not , though It was her PU MH ,
answer In raillery. She plucked a leaf from
the tree and tore It with her lingers as she
answered with a curlou.i glance.
"Why , If yon como , I think you'll wish
that you had not eomo , unless , Indeed , you've
forgotten me before you come. "
"Forget you ! Never while I llvo ! May I
come. Cydarla ? "
"Most certainly , sir. so soon as your ward
robe and your pnrso allow. Nay. don't be
huffed. Come , Slnmn. sweet Simon , are we
not frle-ndH. and may not frlonJs rally one
another ? No , and If I choose , I will put
my hand through your arm. Indeed , sir ,
you're the flrst gentleman that ever thrust
It that way. See , It Is there now. Doesn't
it look well thnrc , 81mm- and feel well
there , Simon ? " She looked up Into my face
In coaxing apology for the hurt she had
given mo , and yet still with mockery of my
tragic airs. "Yes , you must by all means
como to London , " fho went on , patting my
arm. "Is not Mistress Barbara In London ?
And I think am I wrong , Simon ? that
thrro IB something for which yon will want
to aek IIPP pardon. "
"If I como In London , It Is for you , and
you only that I shall come , " I cried.
"No , no. You will como to love what iho
king loves , to know what ho hides , and to
drink ot his cup. I. sir , cannot Interfere
with your destiny. " nhc drew away from mo ,
courtesled low , and stood opposite to mo ,
Binding.
"For you and for you only , " I repeated.
"Then will the king love mn ? " she asked.
"Qor forbid , " said I fervently.
" 0 , and why pray , your 'Oott forbid'1
You're very ready with your 'God forbids. '
Am t then , to take your love sooner than
Ihe kliiRfl , Master Slmcn' "
"Mine Is an honest IOVP , " slid I soberly
"O , I dhnuld dole on the rountiy. did no !
everybody talk of his honesty there. I have
seen the king In Ix > ndon , and IIP i * a Hnp
Rtntlrnmn. "
"And yen have sooii thp queen also , may
be ? "
"Intruth , yes. Mi , 1 have shocked you.
Simon ? WP ! ! , I wat wrong. Come , we're In
the country , we'll be good. But when \\P'VP
made n townsman of you. we'll wo will bo
what Ihey are In town. Moreover , In ten
minutes I am going home , and It would tin
hard If t left you In aaigor. You shall have
i plpafantcr memory of my going than Mis
tress Barbara left you. "
"How shall 1 find yon when I eomo to
town ? "
"Why , If you ask any gentleman you meet
whether he chance lo remember Cydarla.
you will nnd me as soon ns It N well you
should. "
I prayed her to tell me more , but she was
resolved to tell no more.
"Pee. It Is late , t go , " said sho. Then
suddenly she came near to me. "Poor
Simon. " she said softly. "Yet It Is gorxl for
you. Simon. Some day you will be amusd
at this. Simon. " She spoke as though slip
wore fifty years older than 1. My atuwrr
lay not Ini words or arguments. I caught
her In my arms and kissed her. She strug
gled , yet she laughed. It shot through my
mind then that Barbara would never hive
struggled 'nor laughed. But Cydarla
laughed.
Presently I let her go. and kneeling on mv
knee kl ed her hand verv humbly ns though
slio had been what Barbara was If she
were not and I know not what she wan-
yet should my love exalt her and make a
Ilircne whereon slip might sit a queen. My
new posture brought a sudden gravity lo
her face , nnd she bent over me with : \ smile
that seemed now tender and almost eorrow-
ful.
"Poor Simon , poor Simon , " she whispered
"Kiss my hand now , kiss It ns though I
weie fit for worship. It will do you no
harm and and , porhups perhaps 1 shall
llkt > to remember It. " She leaned down and
kissed my forehead ns I knelt before her.
"Pcor Pinion , " she whispered , as her Inlr
briMhed mine. Thtn her hand was gradually
.mil gently withdrawn. I looked up to see
her face ; her lips were smiling , but there
Deemed a dew on her lashes. Rlie laughed ,
and the laugh eni'cd In a little gasp , ns
though a sob had fought with It. And she
cried out loud , her voice ringing clear amonf ;
the trees In the still evening air.
"That ever I should be so sore a fool ! "
Then she turned and left me , rtimlnc
swiftly over the grass with never a look
behind her. I watched till I'he was out of
sight nnd then sat down on the ground wilh
twitching lips and wide-open dreary eyes.
Ah , for youth's happiness ! Alas for UK
dismal wo ? ! Thus came she Into my life.
