So powerful was the impression she at once made upon the hitherto impregna ble heart of the hero, to completely was be spellbound in her charms, that he seemed to lose all recollection of other matters, even of the disastrous battle of Pultowa. The name of this enchantress was the Princess Ik la for she was a princess. her mother, the baron's sister, having married the Hetman of the Tartars. Be ing left an orphan at an early age, ' she had taken up her residence with Baron Gortx at Stralsund. r The baron was a bit of a historian or he thought he was and was then en gaged in writing a history of the king, wno cauea upon him often to revise and correct the work. Besides, the baron was one of the crown councillors, and was often entrusted with important bus iness of the state. Charles the XII had that desire which seems to be inherent in the breast of greatness he wished to bo loved for himself alone, without regard to his state and grandeur. Consequently, he had himself presented to Ikla under the sim ple title cf Count d'Olfen, and in that name he paid his court to the erratic princess, tor her Tartar blood made her conventionalties, rvf 1 1 ffk f KnnrvK haw ' nnntA aIVam IaaIamI that she had the blood of the Gortzes full in her veins, and was no more a Tar tar tnan be was : and there was not much of the Kalmuck about him. Baron Gortz was hiehly delighted at the prospect' of becoming the uncle of the king ; but that delight was tempered by a wholesome dread 01 his prospective nephew-in-law. For, stripping off the dazzling veil of his military glory, he must acknowledge that the "Lion of the North" was an unmitigated tyrant, and ruled his subjects in a very arbitrary manner. Baron de Gortz had proof of this one day, when be received a letter from the king. It contained these words : "Baron Gortz : Information has reach ed me that the Captain of Hulans, Gus tavus Reinold, who was condemned to death for neglect of orders at the battle of Pultowa. but who escaped before the execution 01 nis sentence, nas oeen seen in Stralsund.
