I cannot tell you with what eagerness I drank in all the features of this lovely scene; at least, such features as Time can hardly alter the glancing river, from whence the city's ancient name of Nidaros, or "mouth of the Nid," is derived, the rocky island of Munkholm, the bluff of Lade, the land-locked fiord and its pleasant hills, beyond whose grey stony ridges I knew must lie the fatal battle-field of Sticklestad.
The hard, lingering death struggle had spent itself, and slow convulsive gasps showed that life was nearly gone; but the satanic sneer had passed away, and a hand held out, a breathing like the word 'pardon' seemed to be half uttered, and was answered from the bottom of Berenger's kind and pitying heart.

We shall have suspicions; and I heard to-day that the King is in Dauphiny, and with him M. de Nid de Merle.
