Jeanne shook her little head in perplexity. "I don't know," she said. "It was wonderful. Did you hear all it told, Chéri?" "Yes," said Hugh. "But no one could ever tell it again, Jeanne. It is a secret for us." "And for the frogs," added Jeanne. "And for the frogs," said Hugh. "But," said Jeanne, "I thought the swan was going to die. That was not dying."
"Et comment ye te pele to papa, chere?" "Papa Zulien." "Bon! Et comment to maman te pele to papa? dis ca a moin, chere?" The child looked down, put a finger in her mouth, thought a moment, and replied: "Li pele li, 'Cheri'; li pele li, 'Papoute." "Aie, aie! c'est tout, ca? to maman te jamain pele li daut' chose?" "Mo pas connin, moin."
The perfidious old woman retired, delighted at having been so successful. The Princes, returning from the chase, found Belle-Etoile engrossed by the advice of Feintise. Her anxiety about it was so apparent, that Cheri, who thought of nothing but pleasing her, soon found out the cause of it, and, in spite of her entreaties, he mounted his white horse, and set out in search of the dancing-water.

But when he found us " "He fought for us," breathed the girl. She gave him the bundle, and stood up, straight and tall and slim in the firelight. "He fought for us and he was terribly hurt," she said.
With this hope Hugh had to be satisfied, and to satisfy also his little cousin, who was at first quite disappointed that he had nothing wonderful to tell her.

Her great eyes were looking at him straight into his soul, it seemed. "You may tell me, ma cheri," he encouraged, barely above a whisper. "I am Duval. And Jan I love Jan." He drew her back toward the cot, dragging his limb painfully, and seated her again upon the stool. He sat beside her, still holding her hand, patting it, encouraging her. The color was coming back into Marie's cheeks.
"But we can't," said Hugh; "it just won't go." "Oh dear," said Jeanne, "we'll have to go back. But how should we find the door in the hillside to go up the stair; or if we did get up, how should we push away the stone?
