Ay, the woman whose heart is a stone to most people is soft towards the young prince Rakota, in spite of the fact that this youth is favourable to the Christians and has often stood between them and his mother. "About nine years after the queen's coronation my little sister was born, and was secretly baptised the name of Ruth being given to her.
"But, madam," urged Rainiharo, who hated Rakota, "if your son resists your will what becomes of the Government? I know that Rakota " "Cease to speak to me of Rakota," interrupted the Queen, impatiently. "He is my son, I tell you. I love him. Let him alone he will not disobey me."
The man whose life was saved by this young Maker of Medicine is my son Rakota my beloved son. Is it not so?" The Queen looked round as she spoke, and the man whom we have hitherto styled Ravelo bent his head and replied, "It is so," whereupon there were murmurs of surprise and approval among the courtiers.
When silence was obtained, the King, in a few and simple words, assured his subjects that his great desire was, and his aim would be, to devote himself to their welfare, and that of the country over which he had been called to reign. The vigour with which Prince Rakota put down the attempt at usurpation was followed by characteristic deeds of leniency and kindness.
