They returned to the seats, finding the | marquesa taking leave of a pira “I sit next to you at supoer.,” Me- phisto breathed, kissing Juanita's hand. | “You shall have chocolate.” | Mephisto and the pirate gone, the | marquesa_spoke to Juanita in Spanish. “Is not the devil heavenly? . . . Every- | thing is beautiful, and I am proud of you, Ysabel. But you must not say that you have never been to dances like this, for we have them at the carnivals in Spain.” Juanita danced with the pirate, with a goblin in red. a matador and an In- | dian, a clown and a sultan. Then Kirk | came for his second dance. “It’s gorgeous.” Juanita told him. “Too bad they've got to take these nice faces off,” Kirk said. “That pirate. for instance, with the fierce black whiskers, is a mild blond, really, with a dimple in his chin.” | That's sad.” sald Juanita. “Suppose I'd fallen in Jove with his whiskers?* | “Then there’d be a pirate missing, dimple and all. . ..

Yes, given provaca- tion, they pull like forceps in a relent- less hand,” Kirk answered, holding her close. “Tell me why so many are dressed as pirates and devils.” “I don't know, senorita.
