"You have called me, Sir Thomas Wyat," said the demon, in a sepulchral tone. "I am here. What would you?" "My name being known to you, spirit of darkness, my errand should be also," replied Wyat boldly. "Your errand is known to me," replied the demon. "You have lost a mistress, and would regain her?" "I would give my soul to win her back from my kingly rival," cried Wyat.
"Heaven grant you may never be placed in such jeopardy!" "I say amen to that prayer, Sir Thomas," rejoined Surrey "I would not prove disloyal, and yet under such circumstances " "What would you do?" interrupted Wyat. "My brother is but a hasty boy, and has not learned discretion, Sir Thomas," interposed the Lady Mary, trying by a significant glance to impose silence on the earl.
'My life, very well; and the people, pretty well. There's an old women we don't like, old Wyat, she is cross and mysterious and tells untruths; but I don't think she is dishonest so Mary Quince says and that, you know, is a point; and there is a family, father and daughter, called Hawkes, who live in the Windmill Wood, who are perfect savages, though my uncle says they don't mean it; but they are very disagreeable, rude people; and except them we see very little of the servants or other people.
When Wyat rose to the surface, he found himself in the open lake, which was gleaming in the moonlight. Before him he beheld Herne clambering the bank, accompanied by his two favourite hounds, while a large white owl wheeled round his head, hooting loudly.
No; when he is tired of your charms when some other dame, fair as yourself, shall enslave his fancy, he will cast you off, or, as your father truly intimated, will seek a readier means of ridding himself of you. Then you will think of the different fate that might have been yours if you had adhered to your early love." "Wyat! Wyat! I cannot bear this in mercy spare me!" cried Anne.
"That were to exchange one evil for another," she replied, "If you would serve me, deliver Sir Thomas Wyat." "I will only deliver him on the terms I have mentioned," replied Fenwolf. At this moment, Tristram returned, and the conversation ceased.
Soon after this, the friends separated, Surrey and Richmond taking horse and returning to the castle, discoursing on the unlooked for meeting with Wyat, while the latter again entered the skiff, and rowed down the lake. As soon as the hut was clear, two persons descended the steps of a ladder leading to a sort of loft in the roof, and sprang upon the floor of the hut. "Ho! ho!
But I did not cool all that way; and it was not till I had just reached the lobby, and saw the sour, jealous face, and high caul of old Wyat, and felt the influence of that neighbourhood, that I paused to reconsider. I fancied there was a cool consciousness of success behind all the deferential phraseology of Captain Oakley, which nettled me extremely. No; there could be no doubt.
A man was seated within it, whose attire, though sombre, seemed to proclaim him of some rank, but as his back was towards them, they could not discern his features. In another instant the skiff touched the strand, and the rower leaping ashore, proved to be Sir Thomas Wyat. On making this discovery they both ran out to him, and the warmest greetings passed between them.
"It is true that Wyat has saved your life; and if he had been disposed to take it, you have this moment exposed yourself to him." "Sir Thomas Wyat," said the king, turning to him, "you have my full and free pardon. Quit this forest instantly, and make your way to Paris. If you are found within it to-morrow you will be lodged in the Tower."
