Listen, then; I'll sing you Mauravania's national anthem: 'God guard the throne; God shield the right!" and, dropping down upon the seat before the open instrument, he did so. That night was ever memorable at the Villa Irma, for the detective seemed somehow to have given place to the courtier, and so merry was his mood, so infectious his good nature, that even madame came under the spell of it.
And, for the third" emotion mastered him; his voice choked up and failed; he deported himself for a moment like one afraid to let even his own ears hear the thing spoken of aloud, then governed his cowardice and went on "For the third thing, monsieur," he said, lowering his tone until it was almost a whisper, "the recovery the restoration to its place of honour before the coronation day arrives of that fateful gem, Mauravania's pride and glory 'the Rainbow Pearl!"
And as you have overheard my words you may see that I do not intend to even now. The difficulties of Mauravania's king do not in the least appeal to me." "Ah, but Mauravania's queen, monsieur Mauravania's queen." "The lady interests me no more than does her royal spouse."
And that has been lost that gem so dear to Mauravania's people, so important to Mauravania's crown?" "Yes, monsieur ah, the good God help my country! yes!" said the Count brokenly. "It has passed from his Majesty's hands; it is no longer among the crown jewels of Mauravania a Russian has it." "A Russian?" Cleek's cry was like to nothing so much as the snarl of a wild animal.
And by saving her, monsieur, you who feel so warmly upon the subject of the rights of her family's succession, will be saving her, helping Mauravania's queen, and defeating those who are her enemies." Cleek sucked in his breath and regarded the man silently, steadily, for a long time. Then: "Is that true, count?" he asked. "On your word of honour as a soldier and a gentleman, is that true?"
Look to it that he never leaves this house at any minute from this time forth that you do not search him from top to toe. If he resists ah, well, a pistol may go off accidentally, and things that Mauravania's king would give his life to keep hidden will come to light if any charge of murder is preferred. Monsieur the police spy, I wish you joy of your task."
"To the guards of Mauravania's king, madame, in honour of his safe escape from you!" he made reply; then twitched back the window curtains until the whole expanse of glass was bared. "Look! do you see them, do you, Madame?" he said. "His Majesty of Mauravania sends Madame Tcharnovetski a command to leave his kingdom, since he no longer has cause to fear a wasp whose sting has been plucked out."
