I bade an affectionate farewell to Zoe, and I trust Stein will be still busily engaged at La Bassee when I return in a fortnight's time! I am greatly obliged to Karl for the introduction, and told him so; he himself is running after a little grass widow whose husband has been missing for some months.
Karl's hands twitched and his features worked nervously. "He knows me too well, knows that if ever I lay hands on him again " His voice was rising to an hysterical pitch when the other checked him with a sibilant hiss. At the same time his hand darted out and switched off the light. Karl uttered a startled ejaculation. "Sssh!" his companion repeated.
"If he wants you to come, all right," said Karl. "Still you take my advice and stay home." He said good-by to the boys and went off toward his house. He had to be at the factory early and wanted his supper before he went on duty. "Well, Hugh?" demanded Bob after Karl had gone. "What do you think of him?" "Oh, he's all right," said Hugh. "Do you think he would be disloyal?"
Karl Tausig had also sought me out, and was now devoting his energies to Vienna, with the express determination of conquering this field for Liszt's compositions, and had opened his campaign there during the previous winter with a series of orchestral concerts, started and conducted by himself.
But Sicily, with its regal title, was ceded to the Duke of Savoy; Milan, Naples, Sardinia, and the Netherlands went to Karl, now Emperor Charles VI. of Germany; while Minorca and Gibraltar passed to the keeping of England. No one felt unmixed satisfaction, except perhaps England. The Archduke had failed to get his throne, and to wear the double crown like Charles V. Louis had carried his point.
My cousin rubbed his hands: "I have never known such a frost," he said; "it is already twelve degrees below zero at six o'clock in the evening." I threw myself on to my bed immediately after we had finished our meal, and went to sleep by the light of a bright fire burning in the grate. At three o'clock he woke me. In my turn, I put on a sheepskin, and found my cousin Karl covered with a bearskin.
Such stains have hanged a man before now, for they are the marks of blood. Paul put on this coat. He took a long, soft silken scarf such as Russians wear in winter, and wrapped it round his throat, quite concealing the lower part of his face. He crammed a fur cap down over his ears. "Come," he said. Karl Steinmetz accompanied them down stairs, carrying a lamp in one hand.
Karl Hetman is an absorbing play in which a man loses the world but remains captain of his soul; actually he ends his life rather than exhibit himself as motley to the multitude.
As Karl was helping Fergus into his uniform, he asked: "How long were you in coming here, count?" "We did it in a day. I sent on relays of horses, two days before; and as the carriage is of course on runners, and the snow in good order, we made quick work of it. Your man went on with the horses, and rode with us from the last place where we changed.
He was joined by Count Karl Lenkenstein on the day when Carlo Ammiani encountered them, with the rear of Colonel Corte's band marching for Vicenza. In the collision between the Austrians and the volunteers, Rinaldo was taken fighting upon his knee-cap.
