Hay- ing made this doughty resolution, while his thoughts were almost written on his face, he hummed a snatch of the distant dancing tune before he epoke again. Ard of what was Nathalie thinking? Of sorrowful thiegs, if her face was any index. It was a moment before he dared trust himself to lock at her; at last when he raised his head her dark eyes were fixed upon him, swelling over with tears ‘here is a moment of weak ness that is irresistible; if he had withstood now he was more than human. He need nct ask if che loved him—he knewit ie need not swear his love for her—she would feel that. Ho took her in his arms, and lulled the grief that then first broke forth, with tonder- est kisses acd most endearing sentences. Alas for Nathalie! A month had passed, and every day had witnessed en interview between the two lovers of.the wood; snd when once, half-trembiing- ly, Nathalie had requesied to know the name of her lover, an almost stern tone had come into his voice as he bade bor not inquire again; and with a strange pain in his face he warned her that, as it was, she would know all too soon. ‘* At least you are not one whom I need be ashamed to love ?”’ she ventured to remark. ‘“Not that, indeed, my darling!” he re plied; ‘“* but one who. knowing what lies be- fore him in the fatyre, should be ashamed to love you!’’ And Nathalie, feeling he could do nothing wrong, was satisfied. Now she sat in the drawing room of her friend the marchioness, in full dress, awa’ her lover, who was to accompany and prosent her at court. A coach dashed up to the door; another moment, and Le Norman stood in the apartment, with flushed cheeks and an arx- ious, vivid brightness in hie restless eyes. As the marchioness turned and beheld his face, she began a sudden exclamation; but it was instantly checked by his warning look, and they were soon rolling along to the roya! pal- and emotion, so lightly had her fingerstouched his hand, that be was not aware when the pressure ceased, but only felt her face reced- ing, a8 a vision fades, while she flitted back- ward and away from him intothe throng. and cut among side arches. With a low moan he reeled and fell; caught by an attendant, he was borne unseen to his own apartments, and the gayety of the others continued Thus, frequentiy under the gayest masque are the saadest tragedies enacted Scarcely had Nathalie gained a remote cor- ridor when a eudden rush and murmur pro claimed that the king had withdrawn and that the audience was broken up. While sbe paused to look around her she becawe sensi- tle of an approaching step, and in a moment the king appeared, and taking ber hand, led her into e private apartment, and courteously requested her to be seated “ Madame,”’ said he, sternly, while teating himself opposite, ‘‘ by what authority do you Teceive my son’s addresses?” Nathalie raised ber eyes, and with her head somewhat thrown back, she answered, ‘I must be addressed altogether differently be- fore [ reply at all.’? ‘Perhaps the Lady Nathalie will instract ber slave in some euitatle conversational terms!’ saidthe king, his face slightly on one eide, his eyes leering upon her, and in his moet insinuaiing manner; nevertheless, if any voice was ever plain'y euggestive of scaffold and battle axes, this was one. Nathalie, forest girl as she was, could not condescend to battle the king with these his own weapons, and as there did not appear to be any viher, she thought best to make a feind of surrender, and calmly said, ‘‘I wieh to leave your mojesty ssion of your son Boe assured, I had no knowledge of the prince's rank when he offered me marriage |My reli- gious faith will be an invincible bar to his wishes.
