And another, and another shot rings through the still night-air. The sentry almost stamps with impatience. "Go home, dear little Fraeulein! Go home at once," he says. "There is danger abroad to-night. I cannot leave my post, or I would take you home myself.... Holy Saint Christopher! they are coming this way! Go go what would his Excellency the Governor say, if he found you here?"
"'Tis a long road to Falkenlust, dear little Fraeulein," said he; "and His Excellency, methinks, would be better pleased".... I stayed to hear no more, but ran off at full speed down the terraces, straight to the Round Point and the fountain, and along the great avenue that led to Falkenlust.
Whereupon Ida quietly described her afternoon promenades upon the river-path, with the Fraeulein always in her company, and how her friend's cousin had been permitted to walk up and down with them.
It was flung back, rather, as if with an angry hand, and a young woman, taller than the generality of her sex, walked quickly up the room to Miss Pew's desk, and stood before that bar of justice, with head erect, and dark flashing eyes, the incarnation of defiance. 'Was fuer ein Maedchen. muttered the Fraeulein, blinking at that distant figure, with her pale gray-green eyes.
"Fraeulein!" he said again with chattering teeth, and when she nodded more collectedly the little ghost slipped out relieved by the door. "Russian colonel ... I must get up. Fancy making that boy call me! Why couldn't someone older ... I must get up."
Confess now, dear Fraeulein liebste Fraeulein' how tender his accents sounded in German! 'you do not think it wrong for me to see the lady of my love for a few all-too-happy moments once a day?
I heard of this through a great friend of mine, Fraeulein Van Brunt. She is going to Germany herself next week, and will take Elma, if you can spare her." "If I can spare her? But it will break my heart such a sensible girl as she is," said poor Mrs. Lewis.
'Suppose, Bessie, that after a little mild flirtation, with Fraeulein Wolf for an audience, we both discovered that our liking for each other was of the very coolest order, and that it was wiser to let the acquaintance end? 'You might feel that; but I would never believe it of Brian. Why, he raved about you; he was passionately in love.
He had but little of that self-assurance which is so highly cultivated to-day as to be almost offensive. "There are, of course, matters of business," he said, "which can wait till to-morrow. To-night you are tired." He looked at Roden as a doctor may look at a patient. "Is it not so, Fraeulein?" he asked, turning to Dorothy. "Yes." "Except one or two which we may discuss now."
The sandy-haired young woman at the end of the room furthest from Miss Pew's throne was Fraeulein Wolf, from Frankfort, and it was Fraeulein Wolf's mission to go on eternally explaining the difficulties of her native language to the pupils at Mauleverer Manor, and to correct those interesting exercises of Ollendorff's which ascend from the primitive simplicity of golden candlesticks and bakers' dogs, to the loftiest themes in romantic literature.
