Shall we not treat it as such, and make the best of it?" He was looking her straight in the face as he said it, but, steady as was his gaze, she was not reassured. Quick as lightning came the thought it was almost like an inner voice warning her that he must not suspect the fact. Whatever happened she must veil her uneasiness, which she feared had been already far too obvious.

Bonaventure and many others, in their paraphrases of the Gospel history, have mixed up traditional details with those given in the sacred text, even these examples have not wholly reassured him. St. Bonaventure professed only to give a paraphrase, whereas these revelations appear to be something more.

The canon covered his face with his hands. "Alas!" cried he, "what will be said of us who counselled our prince to come hither?" The emperor again reassured him. "Do not annoy yourself, canon," said he; "neither you nor the others have any cause to afflict yourselves. You could not divine my intentions, for nobody was acquainted with them.

"This is no fit place; come with me," Mr. Britton replied, leading the way two or three blocks down the street, to a first-class restaurant.

And at length his voice reassured her; she thrust her velvet nostrils into the tub. Then he seated himself upon a foundation timber of the tank and rolled a cigarette. His toilet could wait.
