The quiet elation in his manner led the man to believe that some specially pleasing news had transpired during the conclave in the royal bureau. It appeared that his Excellency, the English milord, had gone to the music hall in the Königstrasse with a friend. "Then send some one to say that he is wanted here at once," said Alec. "Yes, your Majesty." "Your Majesty!"
The King here stopped, on seeing MM. de Ayen and de Gontaut enter, and then recommenced reading the letter to them, and added, "It was given me by the Minister for Foreign Affairs, to whom it was confided by Milord Marshal, for the purpose of obtaining my permission for this sublime genius to accept the favour. But," said the King, "what do you think is the amount?"
Milord Anglois the very sound was worth the money; so I gave MY LAST SOUS FOR IT. But in the eagerness of giving, I had overlooked a pauvre honteux, who had had no one to ask a sous for him, and who, I believe, would have perished, ere he could have ask'd one for himself: he stood by the chaise a little without the circle, and wiped a tear from a face which I thought had seen better days. -Good God! said I and I have not one single sous left to give him.
And his divinity smiled back at him, and threw him a kiss, which pleased him mightily. "You must have hurt milord's feelings pretty bad," Dick remarked. "I couldn't get him to come. He had to write a letter first, he said." "I wish, Dick," Beatrice answered, a bit petulantly, "you would stop calling him milord." "Milord's a good name," Dick contended.

He places before me, but with admirable suavity, the option of beggary and ruin, or an honourable claim on Alphonso's gratitude.
"That is Maxime all over!" cried La Palferine. "More especially as it was little Croizeau's money," added Cardot the profound. "Maxime scored a triumph," continued Desroches, "for Hortense exclaimed, 'Oh, if I had only known that it was you!" "A pretty 'confusion' indeed!" put in Malaga. "You have lost, milord," she added turning to the notary.
'La mer a toujours son écume pour habiller ses déesses, replied Milord; and he got into his carriage amid pearly peals of laughter from Mrs. Barton, intermingled with a few high notes from Olive, who had already taken to mimicking her mother. Mr. Barton, or Arthur, as he was usually called, always returned to his studio immediately after breakfast, and, as Mrs.
Lord Julian was momentarily speechless before such callous impudence. "And what of the lives you have destroyed in wanton butchery? By God, man, they shall cost you dear." Don Miguel's smile persisted. "It is possible. All things are possible. Meantime it is your own lives that will cost you dear. Colonel Bishop is a rich man; and you, milord, are no doubt also rich.
Lawler's flirtations were talked of until the bell rang for lunch. Milord and Mrs. Barton had just passed into the dining-room, and Alice noticed that his eyes often wandered in the direction of the policemen walking up and down the terrace. He returned more frequently than was necessary to the attempt made on Lord Rosshill's life, and it was a long time before Mrs.
"In the dialogue between Eve and the serpent, yes," quoth the incorrigible sage. "But who comes here? our friend Leonard." Leonard now entered the room; but Harley could scarcely greet him, before he was interrupted by the count.
