"And also in Queen Catherine," replied Robertet. At this moment Madame Dayelle, the favorite bedchamber woman of Queen Mary Stuart, crossed the hall, and went toward the royal chamber. Her passage caused a general commotion. "We shall soon enter," said Madame de Fisque. "I don't think so," replied the Duchesse de Guise. "Their Majesties will come out; a grand council is to be held."

"I've never forgotten the drip of the seed-amethysts, though I don't remember your mother's name." "It was Daisy " Saxon began. "No; Dayelle," Mrs. Mortimer corrected with quickening recollection. "Oh, but nobody called her that." "But she signed it that way. What is the rest?" "Daisy Wiley Brown." Mrs. Mortimer went to the bookshelves and quickly returned with a large, soberly-bound volume.

This was done by M. de Pibrac, thinking I might be induced, from such mortifications, to return to France, where he enjoyed the offices of president and King's counsellor. I now met with a fresh cause for disquietude in my present situation, for, Dayelle being gone, the King my husband placed his affections on Rebours.

For my husband had been greatly smitten with Dayelle, and M. de Thurene was in love with La Vergne. However, I received every mark of honour and attention from the King that I could expect or desire.

"You are very gloomy, madame," said Mary Stuart, taking from the hands of her waiting-woman, Dayelle, a little cap and placing the point of it on the parting of her hair, while two wings of rich lace surrounded the tufts of blond curls which clustered on her temples.

Madame la reine mere was there too, with her Italians, hoping she would be consulted; but no, she was not admitted to the council." "She must have been furious." "All the more because she was so angry yesterday," replied Dayelle. "They say that when she saw your Majesty appear in that beautiful dress of woven gold, with the charming veil of tan-colored crape, she was none too pleased "

Madame Dayelle glided into the royal chamber after scratching on the door, a respectful custom, invented by Catherine de' Medici and adopted by the court of France. "How is the weather, my dear Dayelle?" said Queen Mary, showing her fresh young face out of the bed, and shaking the curtains. "Ah! madame " "What's the matter, my Dayelle? You look as if the archers of the guard were after you."

No one was left in the house where Francois II. had drawn his last breath, but the duke and the cardinal, the Duchesse de Guise, Mary Stuart, and Dayelle, together with the sentries at the door, the pages of the Grand-master, those of the cardinal, and their private secretaries. "Vive la France!" cried several Reformers in the street, sounding the first cry of the opposition.
