Oh, that all the triumphs of a life men call prosperous were excelled by the one triumph of waking such an ambition in such a heart!" Sibyll stood before him transformed, pale, trembling, mute, and Hastings, clasping her hand and covering it with kisses, said, "Dare I arede thy silence? Sibyll, thou lovest me O Sibyll, speak!"
"Oh, Edward, my king, why did you so misjudge me in the prosperous hour!" said Warwick, simply, but with affecting earnestness: "since in the adverse hour you arede me well?" As he spoke, he bowed his head, and, bending his knee, kissed the hand held out to him.
