I will not have you say thatabout yourself. You are a genius, and that makes you a king amongst men.’ “Not a king who could woo a queen like you,” he answered; «but you will always remember, Lady Lilias, that I knew my fate, that Inever nursed myself on any faise hope. I never hoped for a kind word, and I never dreamed of a smile. In my wildest moments I never even thought of toleration where princes and peers have iled. How could I hope?” meadow-sweet trembled in her Her head bent lower and lower ” hands. over it. «I have never loved prince or peer,” she said. “No; I know it. If I dare say what 1 thought; I should say that you are one of those happy beings who have ‘never ached with abeart? I grow more daring, you see, Lady Lilias. I know already that Ihave sinned past forgiveness. I know that, in telling you the story of my mad passionate love, I have placed a barrier be- tween us for ever. Sol will finish my sin, and tell you that men have loved you and men will love you, but that no man in the wide world has ever loved you or can everlove youasI do.

He took with him the crushed blossums of the mead- Oow-sweet. CuapTer XI. Two years had passed since Vane Fra- ser Vibart, had prayed to be left alone amongst the meadow-sweet that he might die there. For him they had been two eventful years, as he had now risen to the head of his profession, and was crowned With fame. He had tried to drown all thought, all memory, in work. He no longer spent hours watching the fair face of Nature, lest among the green leaves, in the gleaming waters, cr in the hearts of flowers he should see the lovely face that had intoxicated bim with its witchery — He spent no more pleasant hours over books of poetry, lest from their pages La dy Lilias’s sweet face should smile on him. What be suffered no one knew; he bore Lis pain and anguish as the Spartan boy bore the gnawing of the fux. He realized the poet’s words—for his life seemed long— “Thou shalt fear Waking and sleeping, mourn upon thy bed, And say at night, ‘Would God the day were here!’ And say at dawn, ‘Would God the day were dead!’ With weary days thou shalt Le clothed and fed, And wear remorse of heart for thine attire, Pain for thy girdle, and sorrow upon thine head. This is the end of every man’s degire.” He fought a brave fight with grim De- spair. There were times when he was Victor, and for a few hours be would cry out that bis work was everything, that a man’s life was his work, and that love was play—when he would go about trying to smile, trying to sing gay snatches of song, and, after a few hours, break down with bitter cries and bitter tears. Once he woke up from a long dream of Lady Lil- ias, with these passionate words on his lips— “I wish we were d Lost sight of Clasped and Out of the wort Out of the ages of worldly weather, Forgotten of all men aite As the worki’s frst d away, Mate one with death, filled full of the bight” He loved her so passionately and so well that he would rather have been dead ! buried with her, out of sight, out of the world’s way, out of the light.

One thing comforted him. tay With weary eyes he looked through the news ers, but there was never c tion of Lady L iage t her triumphs—tfor eaci year brought ti fashiona 1 more and more to her feet; le read her name among the partici- pators in the most briliiaut ayeties of the season—he knew that sie was the quee of the fashionable world—but there was never a line that told of ber marriage. “No man is good enough for her,” said vane to himself, «‘and no man could ever e.”: The bridge over the Ulver had been built. Sir Raye, having recovered bis health, and undertaken the superinten- dence of it, and Vane had not seen Ulvers- croft since the day he had been left amongst the meadow-sweet alone. Perhaps Sir Raye had discovered something of Vane’s secret; for he never said much of Ulvers- croft to him. Through long nights V: mad with his misery; athwart this misery came gleams of light, bright and dazzling, yet making the dark- ness that followed more intense. He re- membered that Lady Lilias had softened tohim, and that he bad seen that in her face which was very ii love. She had owned that she cared for him a little, but she-had added that there his suit must end. There were times when he blamed himseif; yet the words from the sweet Proud lips were tirm enough—«“It can ney- er be.” Would the time come, he wondered, when he should forget her, when the dead gold of her hair, the proud grace of her Ngure, the fair beauty of her face, would fade from his memory and cease to torture him? ‘The incident was bad, as it was; but what would it have been if she had known the truth, he had known that he Was the son of a poor farmer, a son of the soil? She would uot even have spoken tohim as she did then; sue would not have list- tenedto him. At least, now she did not remember him with contempt. The June of the second year came round, aud he was still ill with the fever called love,” he was still pale and thin, with lines of eare on his face. He had in a great meas old home; the new life aims bad entirely claimed him, the new love Lad irely drowned all memory of the old. Since he had grown wealthy he had sent home every year asum of money that filled the old farmer with wonder and made the mother cry out with admira- tion at her gifted son; but Wane did not go near them. It was not that the voice of nature was dead in his heart, but that he had outgrown his eid life. Still he nev. er forgotthem. Great kages were sent from Loudon to the’ Meatow Farm— dresses for his mother and Kate, and hand. some presents for the farmer and Desford.
