"What brings him here, can you ask?" replied one at the side of the questioner, and with a solemnity of tone and manner that caused the whole of the group to torn their eyes upon him, as he mournfully shook his head.

Can I do so now to- night at once?" "By all means!" assented the monk, showing no surprise at the request. "Follow me to the library, we shall be quite alone there."
