The Prince of Orange, who had now been proclaimed King at Westminster, found that he must fight for his throne, and that Ireland was to be the battle-field. Londonderry was crowded with Protestants, who held out for William III. James believed that the place would fall without a blow. Count Rosen was of the same opinion. The Irish army proceeded northwards without resistance.
The chief command was held by a veteran warrior, the Count of Rosen. Under him were Maumont, who held the rank of lieutenant general, and a brigadier named Pusignan.
"Hello," said a voice, and she recognised it as Von Rosen's although it had an agitated, nervous ring which was foreign to it. "What is it?" she said in reply, and the voice responded with volubility, "A girl, a young Syrian girl, is at my home. She is in a swoon or something. We cannot revive her. Is the doctor at home? Tell him to hurry over, please. I am Mr. von Rosen. Tell him to hurry.
This interpretation of the turning back of Von Rosen, struck the heated imaginations of the mountaineers with such force that they all regarded it as a miraculous interposition of Allah in behalf of the new prophet; and when Khasi-Mollah, taking advantage of this sudden turn of men's minds towards him, defeated a detachment sent under Prince Bekovitsch to disperse a gathering of murids in the woods of Tchunkeskan, his fame increased in the land, and a large number of warriors flocked around his standard.
And Otto, leaving the group to which he had been piping, stepped towards the embrasure of a window where a lady stood. The Countess von Rosen had hitherto been silent, and a thought depressed, but on the approach of Otto she began to brighten.
Karl von Rosen listened, then his large eyes again turned introspective. Mrs. Edes again arose, after the singing and playing ladies had finished their performance and returned to their seats, and announced a recitation by Miss Sally Anderson.
'You see I have not opened it, replied von Rosen; 'but 'tis mine, and I beg you to experiment. 'I cannot look at it till you have, returned Seraphina, very seriously. 'There may be matter there not meant for me to see; it is a private letter.
I should have been a dog to come to whistling." And so the Prince departed, and fluttered round Grafinski and von Eisenthal. But the Countess knew the use of her offensive weapons, and had left a pleasant arrow in the Prince's heart. That Gondremark was jealous here was an agreeable revenge! And Madame von Rosen, as the occasion of the jealousy, appeared to him in a new light.
In the house was Aunt Harriet Eustace, who feared a rose, as she might have feared the plague, and, moreover, as Annie comfortably knew, had imparted the knowledge to Von Rosen as they had walked down the pergola, that she would immediately fall asleep. "Aunt Harriet always goes to sleep in her chair after a cup of tea," Annie had said and had then blushed redly.
"A dozen novels might be made out of your adventures." The hasty summons found Mrs. King still melancholy with the thought that her newly found son could be no more to her than a shadow. Glad to have her thoughts turned in another direction, she sent Rosen Blumen to her cousin, and immediately prepared to join her sister.
