Believe me, I am no inquisitor." Then without more words he turned and left him. When Castell, having shut the secret door and drawn the tapestry, hurried from the chapel, it was to find that the marquis had departed. He went back to his office much disturbed, and sat himself down there to think. Truly Fate, that had so long been his friend, was turning its face against him.
