Then Nan did open her lips and what she said certainly amazed most of her hearers. "I was charged with taking a lavalliére from the counter. But it was found hanging from a lady's coat " "Where you hung it, when you saw you were caught!" interposed Linda. "It was dreadful," Nan went on, brokenly. "I was so frightened and ashamed that I did not tell anybody about it." "Nan!" cried Bess.
The lady, seized with terror, gave vent to the cry of a woman in labour, and with great emotion, repulsed him with a gentle little gesture. Poor Lavalliere, finding himself in so pitiable state, went out of the room, but he had not even reached the tapestries of the door, when Marie d'Annebaut again contemplated him, saying to herself, "Ah! what a pity!"
"Was it not necessary to confide you to some defender of your virtue? Not that it needs one save to protect you from wicked men." "Then you are my guardian?" said she. "I am proud of it!" exclaimed Lavalliere. "Ah!" said she, "he has made a very bad choice."
So the girl promptly clasped her lavalliere around her neck and openly displayed it, as a proud defiance, if not a direct challenge, to that detestable sneer. Arthur, admiring his ring in spite of his chagrin at receiving such a gift from a comparative stranger, placed the token on his finger.
