Charles, who at first had been greatly annoyed by Parravicin's abrupt entrance, speedily recovered his temper, and laughed at the other's forced apologies. "I find I have a rival in your majesty," observed the knight. "It is unlucky for me that you have encountered Nizza. Her charms were certain to inflame you.
"Do you love her?" "Can you ask it?" cried Leonard, passionately. "I would advise you to think no more of her, and to fix your heart elsewhere," returned Nizza. "You know not what it is to love," replied the apprentice, "or you would not offer such a counsel." "Perhaps not," replied Nizza; "but I am sorry you have bestowed your heart upon one who so little appreciates the boon."
"I have little more to tell," replied Nizza, "except that she consented to the proposal, provided she was allowed to remain till six o'clock, the hour appointed for the marriage, with Judith." "Bad as that alternative is, it is better than the other," observed Leonard. "But how did you procure the key of the winding staircase?"
Nizza looked at it in astonishment, but did not offer to touch it. "Take it!" thundered Solomon Eagle; "it is your dowry." And perceiving she hesitated to comply with the injunction, he shouted to Leonard. "Give it her. I have no use for gold. May it make you and her happy!"
John Lutcombe instantly flew to their aid, but before he reached them, Nizza Macascree had regained her feet.

"Who gave you this?" she asked, in an altered tone. "My father?" replied Nizza; "I have just told you so. It was my mother's." "Impossible!" exclaimed Judith!
"Wrap a blanket round you, then, and follow me," said Nizza, taking up the lamp and hastening to the door. "Ah!" she exclaimed, with a cry of anguish "it is locked." "This building is destined to be my prison, and that treacherous woman my gaoler," groaned Leonard, sinking backwards. "Do not despair," cried Nizza; "I will accomplish your deliverance."
Feeling a strong interest in Nizza Macascree, I am naturally anxious to know whether my suspicion that a near relationship subsists between yourself and her is correct." "I cannot enter into further explanation now," returned Thirlby. "Meet me at Doctor Hodges's this evening, and you shall know more. And now farewell.
At the sight of the new-comers, whom they instantly knew were the king and his suite, Amabel and Nizza Macascree flew upstairs, and shutting themselves in their chamber, awaited the result in the utmost trepidation. They were not kept long in suspense. Shortly after the king's arrival, Mrs.
One Mark de Nizza penetrated farther than any of the rest. Passing through Culvacan, or Culiacan, he came into the province of Sibola, or Cinaloa, where he pretended to have found seven cities, and that the farther he went the richer was the country in gold, silver, and precious stones, with many sheep bearing wool of great fineness.
