"We will do something ere the night is older to reconcile old Sir Hugh Robsart to the match. You have done your duty something more than boldly; but we were no woman had we not compassion for the wounds which true love deals, so we forgive your audacity, and your uncleansed boots withal, which have well-nigh overpowered my Lord of Leicester's perfumes."

'Your messenger is not come back, said Bedford, presently, rousing himself. 'It may have been no easy task, replied James, not however without uneasiness. 'I would, said Bedford, presently, 'that I had writ the matter straight to Robsart. The lad is weak, and may be tampered with. 'He knows that I have pledged my honour for him, said James. Bedford's thin lips moved at the corners.

Egerton and Lady Isobel, and the eldest Miss Robsart asked Bobby about his grandmother's house in the country. 'What a happy little boy you must have been, she said, 'to have enjoyed a country life! I used to live in the country when I was a little girl, and I have never forgotten it. 'Why don't you live in the country now? asked True.

Tressilian walked into the outer yard of the Castle scarce knowing what to think of his late strange and most unexpected interview with Amy Robsart, and dubious if he had done well, being entrusted with the delegated authority of her father, to pass his word so solemnly to leave her to her own guidance for so many hours.

Your sword, my Lord of Leicester."

"He is infamed by the death of his wife," said Burghley, and the tale has since become so interwoven with classic and legendary fiction, as well as with more authentic history, that the phantom of the murdered Amy Robsart is sure to arise at every mention of the Earl's name.

She opened the hall door and eyed Miss Robsart up and down with grim eyes and lips, then she suddenly followed her out on the door-step and half closed the door behind her. 'She's scolding her, said True. They waited anxiously. Presently Margot came in and shut the door.

A distant but devoted worshipper, cherishing the memory of those thrilling glances with which 'Amy Robsart' favoured me, permit me to wish Madame Orme a pleasant ride, and good afternoon."

Bobby looked at True apprehensively, and True said hastily: 'He's afraid Margot will come in and find you here. She'll be coming in with our tea soon, and she said Miss Robsart was a burglar. Margot thinks everybody is a burglar in London! Mr. Egerton got up from his chair, and pretended to be seized with a fit of trembling. 'Can you hide me anywhere? I'm so frightened of her.
