In attachment to the Roman faith and ritual, in superhuman loftiness of demeanour, and in hatred of heretics, she was at least a worthy child of that sainted sovereign. In a moral point of view she was his superior. The archdukes so Albert and Isabella were always designated were a singularly attached couple, and their household, if extravagant and imperial, was harmonious.

"On whom can it fall or, alas! who would dare to reply to the call, save the worthy pupil of the Sainted Eustatius the good and valiant Father Ambrose?" "I know it," said Magdalen; "my heart told me long ere your lips had uttered his name. Stand forth, courageous champion, and man the fatal breach! Rise, bold and experienced pilot, and seize the helm while the tempest rages!

"I have said before, that from the hour this lady became your wife, the place of my sainted mother enshrined her. As I would have studied that mother's happiness, I gave myself and all that I possessed to her welfare and yours. My own tastes were simple, and I had no hopes.

In sainted homes, in narrow nooks of life, in the secret heart of love, and prayer, and patience, many a tale is told which God alone sees, and which he approves. The needy tell a tale, in their unrelieved wants and unpitied sufferings.

They all remembered the case of Don Benito Valls, and they laughed heartily, since his brother was ever the first to jest about the matter.
