The burgomaster uttered no further words of reproof, but bade him go home and tell his mother, that he saw no possibility of getting Belotti through the Spanish lines in safety, and also that Father Damianus had promised to call on the young lady in the course of the day.
Henrica could not see him immediately, Father Damianus was with her, so he was obliged to wait in the dining-room until the priest appeared. Nicolas knew him well, and had even confessed to him once the year before. After greeting the estimable man and answering his inquiry how he had come there, he said frankly and hastily: "Forgive me, Father, but something weighs upon my heart.
You are a holy man, and must know. Is it a crime, if a Hollander fights against the Spaniards, is it a sin, if a Hollander wishes to be and remain what God made him? I can't believe it." "Nor do I," replied Damianus in his simple manner.
"I had fallen asleep," said Damianus simply and naturally, but in a voice less deep and powerful than would have been expected from his broad breast and tall figure. "I will read the mass, visit my sick, and then return. Have you thought better of it, Belotti?" "It won't do sir, the Virgin knows it won't do.
"She will attract the attention of Damianus or Salathiel or one of the others up there," thought Paulus as he heard Sirona's call once more, and, following her voice, he went hastily and excitedly down the mountainside.

Maria gazed beseechingly at Peter, and the latter said: "If you desire the consolations of your religion, I will send Father Damianus to you, and you can hear mass with the Grey Sisters, who live beside us, as often as you desire. We are not fighting against your religion, but for the free exercise of every faith, and the whole city stands open to you.
Do I err or not, in thinking that the name of Glipper no longer pleases you, dear Junker?" "No, Father Damianus! You are right, a thousand times right. It is no sin, to desire a free Holland." "Who told you it was one?" "Canon Bermont and our chaplain." "Then we are of a different opinion concerning this temporal matter. Give to God the things that are God's, and remain where the Lord placed you.
The physician had paused with her, and seeing the strange object to which the burgomaster's wife pointed, recoiled a step himself. But the cool- headed man quickly perceived the real nature of the ghostly apparition, and leading Maria forward exclaimed smiling: "What in the world are you doing there on the floor, Father Damianus?" "I am scouring the boards," replied the priest quietly.
