She moved through the gay vivid world of Court gallants and joyous maidens like a shadow, and the rout grew graver at her coming. It was much the same with her lover, Guy de Steyning brother of that Hugh de Steyning men wot of as Brother Ambrosius a gentle knight with mild blue eyes, a peaked red beard, and great fervour for heavenly things.

"Yes, my son," said the stranger, observing his embarrassment, "you do indeed see before you the unfortunate Father Ambrosius, who once accounted his ministry crowned in your preservation from the snares of heresy, but who is now condemned to lament thee as a castaway!"

His mother died when he was nine years old, but with Bachic haste his father remarried; the new wife was a widow and seemed to be in the habit of it, for she buried J. Ambrosius two months after the wedding. The boy Sebastian was put in charge of an uncle. At eighteen he was organist at Arnstadt at twenty-one he went on foot fifty miles to Lübeck to hear the great Buxtehude play the organ.

In Tournay the Protestants were excited to a similar pitch of daring by Ambrosius Ville, a French Calvinist. They demanded the release of the prisoners of their sect, and repeatedly threatened if their demands were not complied with to deliver up the town to the French.

In the mist of legend and tradition that surrounds the towns and hamlets of the Plain the origin of Amesbury is lost. The name is supposed to be derived from Ambres-burh the town of Aurelius Ambrosius a native British king with a latinized name who reigned about the year 550.

"I know," whimpered the poor lady, "but I cannot I cannot bear that he should be a captive and suffering, and I with hoarded gold that I have no heart to look upon. 'Tis cruel."

But at least his life, like Bach's and that of many another, had proved that marriage is not always and necessarily a failure when set to music. The genealogy of the Bachs shows them to have been in the habit of marrying at least two or three times apiece, and of being very prolific. Johann Ambrosius Bach, the father of "the Father of Modern Music," had a twin brother, Johann Cristoph.

"The three honorable feasts of the island of Britain: The feast of Caswallaun, after repelling Julius Caesar from this isle; The feast of Aurelius Ambrosius, after he had conquered the Saxons; And the feast of King Arthur, at Carleon upon Usk." "Guenever, the daughter of Laodegan the giant, Bad when little, worse when great."

Then Dutgirn at that time fought bravely against the nation of the Angles. At that time, Talhaiarn Cataguen* was famed for poetry, and Neirin, and Taliesin and Bluchbard, and Cian, who is called Guenith Guaut, were all famous at the same time in British poetry. * Talhaiarn was a descendant of Coel Godebog, and chaplain to Ambrosius.

The scamp rose with a bow. "Well, I have not the word of a gentleman to offer you, but I give you the opinion of Jean Peyrot, sometime Father Ambrosius, that he and the packet will be there. This has been a delightful call, monsieur, and I am loath to let you go. But it is time I was free to look for that packet." M. Étienne's eyes went over to the chest.
