Guilty or innocent, she gave the world all the charm it had for me. Traitress or true, she drew me to her. If she were innocent, she imperilled herself. In any event, if she went to Clochonne she put herself in the power of Montignac. The thought of that was maddening to me. I must find her, whatever the risk. Perhaps I could catch her before she reached Clochonne.
Peace had written to her before his trial hoping she would not forsake him; "you have been my bosom friend, and you have ofttimes said you loved me, that you would die for me." He asked her to sell some goods which he had left with her in order to raise money for his defence. The traitress replied on January 27 that she had already sold everything and shared the proceeds with Mrs. Peace.
"The girl! What girl? Ah! Curse her, traitress!" "Well," interposed the other archer; "the girl is not here, but gone on to the bailiff. So let the burghers settle whether this craven be guilty or no: for we caught him not in the act: and let him draw us our wine." "One moment," said Denys shrewdly. "Why cursed he the girl? If he be a true man, he should bless her as we do."
I wish for no death, but I punish, and ah! the cursed sight of the woman who calls me mad for two years. She thrusts a bar of iron in an engine at work, and says, Work on! work on! Were you not a traitress? Countess Alessandra, were you not once a traitress? Oh! confess it; save my head.
O Lord Jesu, said the Lady Ettard, how is it befallen unto me that I love now him that I have most hated of any man alive? That is the righteous judgment of God, said the damosel. And then anon Sir Pelleas awaked and looked upon Ettard; and when he saw her he knew her, and then he hated her more than any woman alive, and said: Away, traitress, come never in my sight.
Then the King recalled to mind how his young son had drunk of a seeming pleasant drink and died on the instant; and seizing the Queen by the hand, he cried: "False traitress! tell me at once what is in that cup, or I will slay thee!" Then the Queen cried him mercy and told him all her sin.
When he touched the ground, he rapped it with his foot; it opened, and we found ourselves in the enchanted palace, in the presence of the beautiful princess of the Ebony Isle. But how different she looked from what she was when I had last seen her, for she was lying stretched on the ground covered with blood, and weeping bitterly. "Traitress!" cried the genius, "is not this man your lover?"
Reflecting profoundly, he could come to no other conclusion than that he ought to shun the dangerous traitress. As he lifted his head, less troubled after arriving at this resolution, he was not sorry to see that Clemenceau had silently entered the room. "Oh, is it you, my dear master?" he exclaimed. It was not easy on that placid brow to read whether he knew of Césarine's return or not.
"Bear the lady after me, gently; but if she attempt to cry out, why, force enough to silence her, not more. As for you, Beatrice, traitress that you are, I could strike you to the earth, but No, this suffices." He caught his sister in his arms as he spoke, and regardless of her cries and struggles, sprang down the stairs. The hall was crowded with fierce, swarthy men.
She was a traitress certainly; perhaps a murderess. And yet I loved her, even now. I think even more bitter than my disillusion was the conviction that I must still love her, though I had lost her forever! I took a cab from the newspaper office to Von Eckhardt's address, a flat in the west end. I found him, as Medhurst had reported, considerably agitated.
