So she put a force upon herself not to look sad or craving when she was in his company, as full oft she was; for he rather sought her than shunned her.

When my lord judge, who was so jealous that he misdoubted of the very air, saw this, it booteth not to ask if he was chagrined; and in vain, both at Pisa and otherwhere, did he complain of the villainy of the corsairs, for that he knew not who had taken his wife from him nor whither he had carried her.
