Snowdon's name, and, as the wife of a brave and honorable man, she is received without question; for beauty, grace, or tact like hers can make their way anywhere. She stays but a week, and I will devote myself to her; this will save Jasper, and, if necessary, convince Tavie of my indifference " Then he paused to stifle a sigh. "But yourself, have you no fears for your own peace, Maurice?
Tavie, my dear, you hae smelled pouther for the first time this day take my sword and hack off Donacha's head, whilk will pe coot practice for you against the time you may wish to do the same kindness to a living shentleman or hould! as your father does not approve, you may leave it alone, as he will pe a greater object of satisfaction to Leddy Staunton to see him entire; and I hope she will do me the credit to pelieve that I can afenge a shentleman's plood fery speedily and well."
She walked with a slow glide in unconscious imitation of Mademoiselle Tavie whom some youthful affliction had robbed of earthly compensation while leaving her in possession of youth's illusions. As she sat in the old cabriolet beside the father of her dead lover, again there came to Octavie the terrible sense of loss which had assailed her so often before.

Donald listened with much gravity to the account of their adventure; and answered with great composure to David's repeated inquiries, whether he could have suspected that the cairds had been lurking there, "Inteed, Master Tavie, I might hae had some guess that they were there, or thereabout, though maybe I had nane.
He loves Tavie, and she will marry him, I am sure. She can't endure Frank, but tries to because my lady commands it. Nothing will come of it, so try your fascinations and comfort the poor man; sympathy now will foster love hereafter." "Don't talk so here, Rose, someone will hear us," began her sister, but the other broke in briskly. "No fear, a crowd is the best place for secrets.
Kiss me once, and make him happy for my sake." She touched his cold lips with remorseful tenderness, and in the same breath registered a vow to obey that dying prayer. "Tavie dear, Maurice, my brother, God bless you both. Good-bye, Mother. He will be a better son than I have been to you."
As the sudden question startled both, Rose Talbot came along the terrace, with hands full of holly and a face full of merry mischief, adding as she vanished, "I shall tell Tavie that feeding the peacocks is such congenial amusement for lovers, she and Mr. Annon had better try it." "Saucy gypsy!" muttered Treherne. But Mrs.
She and Tavie have made some beautifying discovery, for both look altogether uplifted and angelic all of a sudden." "Here come the gentlemen, and, as I'm a Talbot, they haven't got him!" cried Rose as the deputation appeared, looking very crestfallen. "Don't come near me," she added, irefully, "you are disloyal cowards, and I doom you to exile till I want you.
