I think we will hardly convert Von Ritz." "Ah, that is good news, Monsieur." The Countess breathed the words with a tremor of enthusiasm. "It is, however, all useless, Madame since His Grace is unavailable. In captivity he is absolutely valueless." "In captivity he has a stronger claim upon our loyalty than in power!"
