My heart was afraid within me, for there was a dark light in the eyes that flashed up at the youth from under Lord Denbeigh's stern brows. I was nigh unto them, being but a stride or two apart, and so marked all that passed between them. "By my troth," quoth his lordship, "a valiant crack!" "Meaning me?" quoth the lad, smiling. "Ay, meaning thee, Sir Insolence.
"Guess I must be just back of Denbeigh's farm. Yes, that's their windmill. I'd better row awhile. I'm a good way from Pine Knoll yet." Again he bailed out the boat and took up the oars. The dugout moved ahead like a plodding farm-horse that feels the spur and responds reluctantly. Morning was coming as radiantly as if there were no sorrow in the world.
She would have it that I must hazard a guess on the shape of Lord Denbeigh's nose, the color of his hair, and the height of his body. She forced me to wonder whether he were civil or rude of tongue. She pressed me to say whether I thought there was aye a chance of his returning with Sir John.
And again lied I blackly, most abominably. "As thou wilt," quoth he; "but thy face is known to me, for all that." It was at this time that the door opened again, and there did enter a stripling, clad all in dark maroon velvet, wrapped also about with a long cloak, and having a velvet bonnet pulled down over his brows i' th' manner o' Lord Denbeigh's.
I will carry him to a place of safety." And he lifted the boy in his arms, as though he had been a hurt child. When the other saw that, he laid hold on Lord Denbeigh's arm, saying, "What mean you? are you distraught? There is but scarce time by the clock." And the earl said, "Go you on. I must take this boy where his wound can be bound." "Nay," said the man. "I tell you, you are mad!"
