He made Katchen bring him bread and slices of meat and a flask of wine, which things found a place in his pockets: and paying for his mistress and himself, he awaited Vittoria's foot on the stairs. When Vittoria came she asked no questions, but said to Katchen, 'You may kiss me'; and Kitchen began crying; she believed that they were lovers daring everything for love.

I had several people to love me thy grandfather, Fritz, the old servant Kätchen, Karl, the head apprentice at the mill and I feared admiration and notice, and the being stared at as the 'Schöne Müllerin, whenever I went to make my purchases in Heidelberg. Those were happy, peaceful days.

'Dear heaven! Katchen went in murmuring; 'would I have gone out to that soft-looking young man if I had known he was a devil. Angelo Guidascarpi was aware that an officer without responsibility never sleeps faster than when his brothers-in-arms have to be obedient to the reveillee.

Farewell, Mariandl! The kindly fellows waved their hands and would take no rebuff. The soldiery of Austria are kindlier than most, until their blood is up. A Tyrolese regiment passed, singing splendidly in chorus. The Tyroler's 'Katchen' here, was a saturnine Giulia, who gave him no response, either of eye or lip.

Nevaire vould I heard even dat name if I didn't take care o' Stephen, when Jake vas off on a bust or doin' a job for Chuff." "Funny we never got on to this line o' talk before," mused Kit. "I don't see vy 'funny. You and me always haf something better to talk about, Katchen. And till dese nine days in dis hole, we never 'ad too much time together."

When this was ascertained, my father made no opposition to my going; Babette forwarded it by all the means in her power, and even my dear Fritz had his word to say in its favour. Only Kätchen was against it Kätchen and Karl. The opposition of Karl did more to send me to Carlsruhe than anything.

I had Kätchen to help me in the housework, and whatever we did pleased my brave old father, who was always gentle and indulgent towards us women, though he was stern enough with the apprentices in the mill. Karl, the oldest of these, was his favourite; and I can see now that my father wished him to marry me, and that Karl himself was desirous to do so.

The supper of the officers was smoking on the table when Herr Johannes presented himself among them, and very soon the inn was shaken with an uproar of greeting. Katchen found Beppo listening at the door of the salle. She clapped her hands upon him to drag him away. 'What right have you to be leaning your head there? she said, and threatened to make his proceedings known.

But when Babette began to find fault with Kätchen, I was unhappy at the blame that fell on faithful servants; and by-and-by I began to see that Babette was egging on Karl to make more open love to me, and, as she once said, to get done with it, and take me off to a home of my own. My father was growing old, and did not perceive all my daily discomfort.
