"Sir," replied Jurgen, reasonably, "a service rendered so gladly should be its own reward. So I am asking that you do in turn restore to me the Princess Guenevere, in honorable marriage, do you understand, because I am a poor lorn widower, I am tolerably certain, but I am quite certain I love your daughter with my whole heart."

That saucepan had witnessed sundry ineffectual efforts to lodge it, and had also suffered frequent forgetfulness.

My fondest memories are of reels I've danced to their playing," I said, and by now we were walking down the glen. "And of one reel you danced," said he, quizzingly, "not more than two months gone in a town that was called Inneraora?" "Two months!" I cried, "two months!
