It is not bad, only this I was young a few years ago, and I married and two dear little ones came- -so it is a pull at times to make everything go as it should not that I am sorry for myself at all, oh no! For I am well off as the people go " Cyrillon interrupted him. "Yes as the people go! That is what you all say, you patient, brave souls!
On their way out of the house, through Angela's studio, the Princesse D'Agramont paused for a few minutes to say further kind words to the Abbe respecting the invitation she had given him to her Chateau , and while she was thus engaged, Angela turned hurriedly to Cyrillon. "As 'Gys Grandit' you receive many letters from strangers, do you not?"
Close to him stood his son and would-be murderer Cyrillon, his dark handsome face rendered even handsomer by the wistful and softened expression of his eyes, which ever and anon rested upon his father with a look of mingled wonder and respect.
Cyrillon took her hands, lightly pressed, and released them. "Madame, you are too generous!" But even while he exchanged these courtesies with her, his eyes were fixed on Angela Sovrani, who, moving close to her uncle's chair, had folded her hands upon its sculptured edge and now stood beside it, a graceful nymph-like figure of statuesque repose.
For Cyrillon with one of the quick changes of mood habitual to him, smiled, as his temporary irritation passed like a cloud, and his eyes softened "You see, I am a machine, educated to be a machine; and I am set down to do certain machine-like duties, and one of these duties is, regardless of your fame, your eccentric theories, your special work which you have chosen to make for yourself in the world, to put you in possession of the money your father left you "
Let it be enough I say! and I I also will be silent!" Cyrillon looked at him straightly. "Will you cease to persecute Cardinal Bonpre?" he demanded. "Will you admit Varillo's murderous treachery?" Gherardi bent his head. "I will!" he answered slowly, "because I must! Otherwise " He clenched his fist and his eyes flashed fire-then he went on "But beware of Lorenzo Moretti!
She broke off, not trusting herself to say more. Cyrillon raised her hand to his lips. "I understand!" he said. "You know I have hesitated because I love her! I cannot tell her not to grieve for her dead betrothed, when I myself am longing to take his place!" The Princesse smiled through her tears.
"Make up my mind to get well? I shall never be well again!" "You will if you resolve to be," said Cyrillon. "It rests with you!" She was silent. "Have you heard the latest news from Rome?" he asked after a pause. She made a faint sign in the negative. Cyrillon smiled. "The Church has with all due solemnity anathematized your picture as an inspiration of the Evil One!
"It is not always ourselves," began Cyrillon in his slow, emphatic, yet musical voice, "who are responsible for the good or the evil we may do in our lives. Much of our character is formed by the earliest impressions of childhood and my earliest impressions were those of sorrow.
She moved back a little with a warning gesture and his words were interrupted by the Abbe, who glancing from one to the other in a little surprise, said, as he bent reverently over her hand and kissed it, "We must be going, Cyrillon!" Another few moments and Angela was left alone to think over, and try to realise the strange and rapidly-occurring events of the day.
