Herr Berthold had told his wife all this soon after his return, and added, with much admiration of the valiant fellow's steadfastness, that Biberli, Sir Heinz Schorlin's servant, had again been subjected to an examination by torture and was racked far more severely than justice could approve.
Here he broke off with a sharp laugh, and drawing the boy closer to him, cried: "No harm is meant my Tancred! And you may keep the black horse in remembrance of this hour." It was old Berthold, my uncle's body-servant who told me all this; Herdegen when he came home answered none of my questions.
"It will," replied old Herr Berthold Vorchtel, gravely and firmly. Herr Pfinzing also assented, it is true, but added earnestly that an unfortunate meeting had caused another to suffer even more severely than Eva from the knight's imprudence. This was her older sister, the betrothed bride of young Eysvogel.
Just as he had announced that they were close upon it they saw a body of horse who had evidently galloped round to take possession of the post. This discovery was made, however, in time to enable Berthold to ride his horse down the side of the dyke, the captain following his example.
Still, large as was the promised sum, it would by no means be sufficient to save the Eysvogel business from ruin. Yet he, Berthold Vorchtel, was of the opinion that its fall must be prevented at any cost. The sincerity of this conviction he intended to prove by the best means at a merchant's command-the pledge of his own large capital.
"I do feel it," answered Herr Berthold, his face assuming an expression of regret; "and for that very reason I ventured to take a girl over whom I have no authority out of her service." "Katterle?" asked Eva anxiously. Her uncle nodded assent, adding: "First hear what interested me so quickly in the strange fellow.
The two horsemen and their attendant on foot drew near. "It is Captain Van der Elst and my cousin Berthold!" exclaimed Jaqueline, in a more joyous tone than she had spoken for many a day. "The message they bring from the Prince will, I trust, encourage our citizens."
Brother John of Kempen, in the diocese of Cologne, who was afterward Prior at Mount St. Agnes. Brother Henry Wilde of Hertzogenbosch, in Brabant. Brother Berthold ten Hove, a native of Holland, who conveyed to us his patrimony and the place where the monastery standeth. Brother Henry Wilsem of Kampen, a man of great probity, who was formerly a great one in the world.
She objected no more to Margarita's cameo. The Goshawk quickly made peace with his lord, and enjoyed the commendation of the Kaiser. Dietrich Schill thought of challenging him; but the Club had graver business: and this was to pass sentence on Berthold Schmidt for the crime of betraying the White Rose into the hands of Werner.
And then there was another letter to say that he was well, and thinking of them all. They answered, imploring him to return, and fixed the note and a little cross on the tomb. It is still there, and has never been opened. March, 1818. Berthold is gone among the wood-cutters, and has got his hut. A little girl was born to Aga yesterday, and I was sent for to baptise it.
