"God will reward you," answered Danusia. "God records every charitable deed; but will you reward me also?" "What reward can I give you?" The Krzyzak approached and evidently wished to say something else but hesitated; after a while he said: "In the Order, besides the brothers there are also sisters. One of them will bring the healing balm, and then I will speak about the reward."
"God's law is the stronger!" answered Zbyszko. "For heaven's sake!" "Who is the father, if not the prince? Who is the mother, if not you, gracious lady?" And Danusia added: "Dearest matuchna!" "It is true, that I have been and am still like a mother to her," said the princess, "and Jurand received his wife from my hand. It is true! And if you are once married everything is ended.
He was loyal to Danusia; but very often when he looked suddenly at Jagienka, either in the forest or at home, he said involuntarily to himself: "Hej! what a girl!" When, helping her to mount her horse, he felt her elastic flesh under his hands, disquietude filled him and he shivered, and a torpor began to steal over him.
Just then Jesus inspired me with the idea of presenting the princess with my compliments and asking her for Danusia. I thought that if I died I should have that consolation at least. Remember that the girl had to leave, while I remained ill and nearly dying. There was also no time to ask for your permission.
"The Lord God will be able to grant happiness even from afar, and in the meanwhile let us poor monks at least bring some wine from the monastery." "We will gladly repay," said the princess. When the monk went out, she called: "Hej, Danusia! Danusia! Mount the bench and make our hearts merry with the same song you sang in Zator."
Therefore he said inwardly: "Girl, may God give you the best of everything, for although I am willing to bend the sky for you, I cannot." In fact, the thought that he could not help it, immediately brought him relief, and tranquillity returned, so that immediately he began to think only about Danusia and the wedding.
A superstitious thought struck him more than once at the beginning of the journey, that there was, somewhere in the pathless regions they were passing, death, riding along with them, step by step, lying in wait for the moment when he might fall upon Danusia and wring from her the last breath of life.
Zbyszko walked toward the princess, holding Danusia to his breast, who having encircled his neck with one arm, held the lute with the other, being afraid it would be broken. Her face was smiling and pleased, although a little bit frightened.
Hej! how happy they will be to see you at the court; even the princess is very fond of you." "May the Lord bless her, and you also for the good news. I suffered greatly when I heard that Danusia was married." "She is not married!
The prince, therefore, did not fear the war, but he wished to know what had happened, what he really was to think of the occurrence in Szczytno, of the disappearance of Danusia, and all those stories which arrived from the border; he was also glad, although he hated the Teutons, when on a certain evening the captain of the archers informed him that a knight of the Order had arrived and begged for an audience.
