In spite of the repugnance which the putrid sore inspired in her, Mariette showed as much patience as dexterity in cleansing and bandaging the mutilated arm; and the young girl's devotion, as well as her noble resignation, touched the woman's heart anew. "Sisters of Charity are often praised, my dear," she said admiringly, "but none of them deserve half the praise you do."
The different weapons furniture, cookery, provisions, in short, all the various munitions of war, together with a body of reserve forces were ready along the whole line. Jacquelin, Mariette, and Josette received orders to appear in full dress. The garden was raked.
"I must see the letters which Monsieur Savaron sends to the post by Jerome." "But what for?" said Mariette in alarm. "Oh! merely to read them, and you yourself shall post them afterwards. It will cause a little delay; that is all." At this moment they went into church, and each of them, instead of reading the order of Mass, fell into her own train of thought.
She was almost thirty; and though she was in the prime of her beauty, still she might be called an old woman, and all the more so because in such a crisis all a woman's rivals are against her. Mariette, Florine, Tullia would ask their friend to dinner, and gave her some help; but as they did not know the extent of her debts, they did not dare to sound the depths of that gulf.

In the twelfth century, the Arab geographer Edrisi writes an excellent description of Africa for Roger II. of Sicily, and confirms these data.

"I wish to know how Mademoiselle Mariette Moreau's address comes to be on this card!" repeated Louis coldly. "The devil! he must have lost his senses!" said the usurer.
Subsequently such students as Rosellini the Italian, Lepsius the German, and Wilkinson the Englishman, entered the field, which in due course was cultivated by De Rouge in France and Birch in England, and by such distinguished latter-day workers as Chabas, Mariette, Maspero, Amelineau, and De Morgan among the Frenchmen; Professor Petrie and Dr.
