Fourth watch: Julietta Hyde and Marie Crismore. Fifth watch: Estelle Adler and the Guardian, Miss Ladd. Nothing further of particular interest took place during the rest of the day, except that shortly before suppertime Addie and Olga Graham, both dressed "fit to kill," called at the camp and thanked the girls for their assistance in getting "their brother" back home. "Is he all right now?"
There was always a lump in her throat to be swallowed, and often the tears soaked into the big feather pillows, but there were no sobs to rouse the household. Julietta, beside her, slept very comfortably. But the most terrible moment of all was that last look of Mamma and that last clasp of her hands upon the deck of the steamer.
"Julietta!" said one, "sing William the song you composed about him and the pirates." "You have composed a song about me and the pirates?" asked the youth. Julietta flushed crimson and after withdrawing shyly from his embrace she sang in a sweet, tremulous voice: Far, far away the white dove flies, In fierce pursuit the black hawk hies, The dove is my lover so dear, The hawk is the pirate I fear.
Already Julietta and Lucia and the Palazzo, even Papa and dear, dear Mamma, appeared strangely unreal like a vanished spell and only this night was real and this strange expectant stir in her.
He was also the author of the Bergerie de Juliette, a romance published in 1592, which Robert Tofte is credited with having translated in his Honour's Academy, or the Famous Pastoral of the Fair Shepherdess Julietta, which appeared at London in 1610.
And how Lucia would stare, how dear Julietta would smile! She would buy Julietta the prettiest clothes, the cleverest hats. .
"Who is he? have you any idea?" Violet asked. "Can't you guess?" Helen answered. "Isn't he someone connected with the Graham family?" "What was he trying to do scare us?" Julietta inquired, addressing the question as much to herself as to anybody else. "I should imagine something of the kind, although he may be the crazy man the Graham girls spoke about," said Helen.
How long since she and Mamma had packed it, with dear Julietta smoothing the folds in place! And how far away they all were. .
Thunderstruck, the Count objected. Maria was his favorite. "Send Julietta to America, then," he protested, but swallowed that foolishness at Mamma's calm, "To what good?" To what good, indeed! It would never do to risk the cost of a trip to America upon Julietta. Sulkily Papa argued that the cost in any case was prohibitive. But Mamma had the figures.
"Julietta is a dear girl," said the Contessa in a warm voice. "When one knows her excellencies." "She will do very well with enough dowry." "Enough dowry that is it! It will take all that is left for the two of them to push Julietta into a husband's arms!" When the Count was annoyed he dealt directly with facts a proceeding he preferred to avoid at other moments.
