A quarter of an hour later he started also with Soa and found his master standing bareheaded by his brother's grave, taking a mute farewell of that which lay beneath before he left it for ever to its long sleep in the untrodden wilderness. It was a melancholy parting, but there have been many such in the African fever belt. With one last look Leonard turned and joined his companions.
"Who would know them apart now?" asked Soa triumphantly, then added, handing Leonard the great ruby which she had taken from Juanna's forehead, "Here, Deliverer, this belongs to you; do not lose the stone, for you have gone through much to win it."
Il quale mal effecto volendo nui fugire, seamo condescesi a contrahere la affinita cum soa Santit
"I am to go as a Christian!" thought Soa, as he walked on swiftly and in silence, "as a Christian hypocrite and spy!" The young man's countenance relaxed into something like a smile as he thought thus; then it became solemnised as he offered the silent prayer, "Lord, enable me to do the work honestly and well."
"He showed good judgment there," said Leonard. "Had it not been for Soa, Juanna would have been a slave-girl now, or dead." "That is so, Outram, but whether we showed good judgment in trusting our lives to her tender mercies is quite another matter. Say, friend, do you think it well to go on with this business?" "Oh, confound it all!" said Leonard with irritation, "how can we turn back now?
Immediately after this speech Ravonino led forward Rafaravavy, and Laihova advanced with Ra-Ruth, and these two couples were then and there united in matrimony. Radama the Second, and Prince Ramonja, who had been recalled and reinstated with the Secretary, and Soa, and other courtiers, graced the wedding with their presence.
"You treacherous hag!" said Leonard to Soa, "be careful lest I kill you." "To kill me, Deliverer, would be to kill yourself and another. These things are taken from you because it is not safe that you should have them; such toys are not for angry children. Stay," she said to a fourth priest, "search his pockets."
And as she sat there opposite Nelly, her gnarled and work-stained hands resting on her knees, the tears suddenly ran over her cheeks. But she quickly apologised for herself. 'The truth is I am run doon, Mrs. Sarratt. I've done nothing but cook and cook since these young men coom along. They wouldn't eat noa flesh soa I must always be cookin' summat vegetables or fish or sweet things.
"Let us go and see what happened, mother," he whispered to Soa. They crept along to the end of the shed. Within a yard of it they discovered the arms and clothes of Otter. But Otter! Where was he? "The Black One has deserted us," said Soa beneath her breath. "Never!" answered Leonard.
"It wor an aunt o' hers, soa I understan' quite a good bit o' money." "Did yer iver hear the name?" said John, eagerly. "Some one livin' at Bedford, I did 'ear say." John laughed, not without good-humoured relief. It would have touched his vanity had his niece been discovered to be richer than himself. "Oh, that's old Sophy Clarke!" he said.
