My own grandfather erred also before his eyes were opened.” “But he nobly atoned for his error,” murmured the Jesuit. “Then you will not help me, sire?” “You must first help yourself.” The old Huguenot stood up with a gesture of despair, While the king con- tinued on his way, the two ecclesias- tics on either side of him murmuring their approval into his ears. “You do not think, then, that these people have too hard a measure?” said he. “I hear that they are leaving my kingdom in great numbers.” But the king bore the face of a man .who was not absolutely satisfied with his own action. “And surely it is better so, sire, for what blessing can come upon a coun- try which has such stubborn infidels within its boundaries?” “Those who are traitors to God can scarce be loyal to the king,” remarked “But it lies with your majesty to undo the mischief that has been done.” Q “And how?” ‘. “By recalling the edict.” ! “And driving into the open arms of my enemies- 9,.000000 of my best arti- sans and of my bravest servants.

I know not how the state coffers are to be filled it such taxpayers go from among us.” “But,” remarked Bossuet, “if it were )nce known that the king’s will had i )een expressed your majesty may rest i assured that even the worst of his sub- jects hear him such love that they would hasten to come within the pale of the holy church.” The king shook his head. “They have always been stubborn folk,” said he. “Perhaps,” remarked Louvois, glanc- ing maliciously at Bossuet, “were thei bishops of France to make an oflering: to the state of the treasures of their ‘ sees we might then do without these Huguenot taxes.” “The kingdom is mine and an that is in it,” remarked Louis as they entered: the grand salon in which the court assembled after chapel, “yet I trust that ltmybelong betorothaveto claim wealth of the church.

Now. if you were to speak to her, your grace. _ Show her how good a service it would be could she bring about the banishment of the Huguenots.” “I shall do so." “And offer her in return that we will promote”â€" He bent forward and whis- pered into the prelate’s ear. “What! He would not do it.” “And why? The queen is dead.” “The Widow of the poet Scarron!” “She is of good birth. Her grandfa- ther and his were dear friends. If she will serve the church, the church will serve her. But the king beckons, and I must go.” The thin dark figure hastened on through the throng of courtiers, and the great bishop of Meaux remained standing with his chin upon his breast, sunk in reflection. CHAPTER V. 11E elderly Huguenot had stood silent after his repulse by the ‘ king. with his eyes cast mood- ily downward and a face in which doubt, sorrow and anger con- tended for the mastery. He was a very large, gaunt man, rawboned and hag- gard, with a wide forehead, a large, fleshy nose and a powerful chin. He was dressed as became his rank, plain- ly and yet well, in a sad colored brown kersey coat with silver plated buttons, knee hreeches of the same and white woolen stockings, ending in broad toed black leather shoes cut across with a great steel buckle. His doubts as to what his next step should be were soon resolved for him in a very summary fashion. These were days when. if the Huguenot was not absolutely forbidden in France, he was at least looked upon as a man who eXisted upon sufferance, and who was unshielded by the laws which protected his Catholic fellow subjects. For twen- ty years the stringency of the persecu- tion had increased until there was no weapon which bigotry could employ, short of absolute expulsion, which had not been turned against him. “Wlth your powerful assistance. ta- Two of the king’s big blue coated guardsmen were on duty at that side of the palace and had been witnesses to his unsuccessful appeal. Now they Atramped across together to where he Was: standing "and broke“ broth“? into- the current of his thoughts. The old Huguenot shot a glance of anger and contempt at them and was turning to go when one of them thrust at his ribs with the butt end of his halberd. “Now, Hymnbooks,” said one gruffly, “get off again about your business.” “Take that, you dog!” he cried. “Would you dare to look like that at the king’s guard?” “Children of Belial!” cried the old man, with his hand pressed to his side, “were I twenty years younger you would not have dared to use me so.” “Ha. you would still spit your venom, would you? That is enough, Andre! He has threatened the kings guard. Let us seize him and drag him to the guardroom. ” The two soldiers dropped their hal- berds and rushed‘ upon the old man, but, tall and strong as they were, they found it no easy matter to secure him. They had hardly won their pitiful vic- tory, however, before a stern voice and a sword flashing before their eyes compelled them to release their prison- er once more. It was Captain de Catinat, who. his morning duties over, had strolled out on the terrace and had come upon this sudden scene of outrage. At the sight of the old man’s face he gave a violent start and, drawing his sword, had rushed forward with such fury that the two guardsmen not only drOpped their victim, but, staggering back from the threatening sword point, one or them slipped and the other rolled' over him. a revolving mass of blue coat and white kersey“ “Villains!” roared De Catinat. “What is the meaning of this?” the two baa stumbled to their feet agam, very shamefaced and tamed; “If you blease, captain,” said one: sa- luting. “this is a Huguenot who abused the_ royal guard.” “His peiition had been rejected. by the king, captain, and yet he refused to De Catinat was white with tury. “And so when a French citizen has come to have a word with. the great master or his country he must be har- assed by two Swiss dogs like you ?” he cried. “By my faith,w we shall 800B 886 about that!” .- . v .~ He drew a little silver whistle from his DOCket, and at the shrill summons an old sergeant and half a dozen sol- .

Just as theJcaptain pleases.” _ “No.” said De Catinat, with a sud- den happy thought. "‘I charge them with laying their halberds down while on duty and with having their uni- forms dirty and disarranged.” -- ._ “That is better.” answered the ser- geant, with the freedom of a privi- leged veteran. “Thunder of God. but you have disgraced the guards! An hour on the wooden horse with a mus- ket at either foot may teach you that halberds were made for a soldier’s hand and not for. the king’s grassplot.” The Huguenot had stood in the back- ground, grave and composed, without any sign of exultatlon, during this sudden reversal of fortune, but when the soldiers were gone he and the young officer turned warmly upon each other. “Amory, I had not haped to see you!’? “Nor I you, uncle. What in the name of wonder brings you to Ver- sailles ‘2” “My wrongs, Amory. The hand of the wicked is heavy upon us, and whom can we turn to save only the king ?” The young oflicer shook his head. “The king is at heart a good man,” said he. “But he can only see the world through the glasses which are held before him. You have nothing to hope from him.” “He spurned me from his presence.’ “Did he ask you your name?” “He did. and I gave it.” The young guardsman whistled. “Let us walk to the gate.” said he. “By my faith. if my kinsmeu ale to come and handy aiguments w ith the king it may not be long befoxe my company finds itéelf witnbut its captain. What is amiss '3” ~ “Twenty men of Mon!) have been quartered upon me, with one Dalbert, their captain, who has long been a scourge to Israel.” “Captain Claude Dalbert of the Lan- guedoc drng‘oons? I have already some small score to settle with him. \Vhat has he done?” “His men are over my house like moths in a cloth bale. No place is free from them. He sits in the room which should be mine. his great boots on my Spanish leather chairs, his pipe in his mouth, his wine not at his elbow and his talk a hissix g and an abomination. He has beaten 01d Pierre of the ware- house and thrust me into the cellar.” “Certainly. captain.” said the" an “Ha!" “Because I have dragged him back When in his drunken love he would have thrown his arms about your cous- in Adele.” “Oh!” The young man’s color had been rising and his brows knitting at each successixe cl1arge,hut at this last his anger boiled over, and he hurried forward with fury in his face, drag- ging his elderly companion by the elâ€" bow. “How did you come, uncle?” “In a caleche.” “Where is it?” “That is it, beyond the auberge.” “Come, let us make for it.” “And you Ammy, are you coming?” ; “My faith,- it is time that I came, from what you tell me. There is room for a man with a sword at his side in this establishment of yours.” “But what would you do?” “I would have a word with this Cap- tain Dalbert. Ha, here comes our calechel Whip up. driver, and 5 livres to you if you pass the gate of the In- valides Within the hour.” It was no light matter to drive fast in an age of springless carriages and deeply rutted roads. but the driver lashed at his two rough, unclipped 1 horses, and the caleche jolted and clat- ’; tered upon its way. “When was all this?" asked the guardsman. “It \\ as 3este1day night.” “And whole is Adele now?” “She is at home.” “And this Dalbert?” “Oh, he is there also!” “What! You have left her in his power while you came away to Ver- sailles?" “She is locked in her room.” “Pah! ' What is a lock?” The young man raved with his hands in the air at the thought of his own impotence. “And Pierre is there.” “He is useless.” “And Amos G1een.” “Ah, that is better. He is a man by the look of him.” “His mother was one of our own folk from Staten Island, near Man- hattan. She was one of those scattered lambs who fled early before the wolves when first it was seen that the king’s hand waxed heavily upon Israel. He speaks French, and yet he is neither French to the eye nor are his ways like our ways. ” "71nd yoh have left him in the house?” “Yes; he was sat With this Dalbert, 'smoking with him and felling him strange. tales.” “What guard could he beâ€"he a. stranger m a strange land? . You did ill to leave Adele thus, uncle.” “She is in God’s hands, Amory.” “I trust so. Oh, I am on‘ fire to be there !’_’ Soon, as the road curved down to the .river bank, the city wall grew nearer and nearer until they had pass- ed the southern gate and were rattling over the stony causeway, leaving the broad Luxembourg upon their right and Colbert’s last work, the Invalides, upon their lett.
