"The Romish king said somewhat about waiting to win our spurs; but the Kaisar said I was in a position to take rank as a knight, and I thanked him, so thou shouldst share the honour." "The Kaisar," said Wildschloss, "is not the man to let a knight's fee slip between his fingers.
"The lady is Christina, daughter of his esquire, Hugh Sorel, of an honourable family at Ulm." "Ha! I know who and what Sorel was!" exclaimed Wildschloss. "Lady cousin, thou wouldst not stain the shield of Adlerstein with owning aught that cannot bear the examination of the Diet!"
And is not her chief wish to be rid of the Wildschloss suit?"
A fine young book-learned scholar, already knighted, and with all these Wildschloss lands too!" said Sir Eberhard, gazing with a strange puzzled look at the delicate but spirited features of this strange perplexing son. "Reach hither your hand, boy."
Admit me, that I may arrange with the widowed Frau Freiherrinn as to her dower and residence." "The widowed Frau Freiherrinn, born of Adlerstein," returned Hatto, "thanks the Freiherr von Adlerstein Wildschloss; but she holds the castle as guardian to the present head of the family, the Freiherr von Adlerstein."

There is a party at the Debateable Ford, whether Schlangenwald or Wildschloss we know not yet, but either way you must be the first thing placed in safety." Christina turned deadly pale.
Here has this height of the steeple proved the height of policy. It has made a loyal subject of a Mouser on the spot." "Pray Heaven it may have won a heart, true though proud!" said Wildschloss; "but mousing was cured before by the wise training of the mother. Your highness will have taken out the sting of submission, and you will scarce find more faithful subjects." "How old are the Junkern?"
"It is your kinsman, Freiherr," said a well-known voice; "I come by your mother's leave." "Welcome, Sir Cousin," said Ebbo, holding out his hand. "You come to find everything changed." "I have knelt in the chapel," said Wildschloss, gravely. "And he loved you better than I!" said Ebbo.
So soon as the ascent had been made, the leader wound his horn, and, before the echoes had died away among the hills, Hatto, acting as seneschal, was demanding his purpose. "I am Kasimir von Adlerstein Wildschloss," was the reply. "I have hitherto been hindered by stress of weather from coming to take possession of my inheritance.
