' To siffh on moment at her feet

leat for the morning following,
which Francis declined atten-
dinpr. He was melancholy;
a n "
and tne cause wai said to-be
some lover's quarrel with a
favorite dame. The morrow
rame , and dark rain and mur
ky clouds destroyed at once
the scheme; of th courtly
mrong-. Marsraret was anpry,
and she crew weary; her onlv
hope for amusement was 141
t rancis, &c h had shut himself
up -an excellent reason why
she should the more desire to
see dim. She entered his a-
partment; he was standing at
the casement, aa'inst which
the noisy shower beat, writing
with a diamond on the class.
Two beautiful dogs were his
sole comnanioni. A Onpfn
Marant entered, he hastily
let down the silken curtain be-
before he window, and looked
little.coufused.
What treason is' this: my
liepre said the Queen,' 'which
crimsons your cheekr I must
& - . . ;
see the same. v
It is treason;' replied the
king, and therefore, sweet
sister, thou raay'st not see
:?; This the more excited Mar
garet s curiosity, arrd a playful
contest ensued b rancis at
ast yielded; he threw himself
on a huge high-backed settee;
and as the - lady drew back the
curtain w ith an arch smile, he I
grew grave, and .sentimental
as he reflected on the cause
which had inspired this libel
againt all woman kind.

I will, be content with one

provoke me. 1 would fain be
at peace with the , softMuta
bilities, ,for thy dear sake."
j 'I defy your grace,' replied
Marpraet' : rashly, 'to instance
the falsehood of one noble and
well reputed dame.
Not. even Emilitde Lagnyr'
said the King. -
This was a sore subject for
the Queen." Emilie had been
brought up in her own house
hold, the most beautiful add
the most virtuous of her maids
of honor She had' long loved
the Sire de Lagny, and their
riuptials were celebrated with
rejoicings but little ominous of
the result . ljc nagn jr?i
alccusel but a year after of trai-
nrniitv vipldincr to the EtDDe-
n fortre? under his com -
rnand, andlie was condemned
no'rhtual imDnsonmerit .
For some time Emilie was incon-
solable, often visiting tlie mis-
erable dungeon of ber husband,
and suffering on her return
frnm witnessine his wretched -
from witnessing
ness, such paroxisms of grief as
threatened her. life. '"Suddenly,
in the midst of ber sorrow, she
d sappeared; and inquiry only
divulged the disgraceful fact,,
that she bad ; escaped . from
France, bearing her jewels with
her, and aecompained by her
r?r-t Robinet : Lergoux. -It

Taunted nqvr by her brother
she - defended Emcl je, declar-r
ing that she believed her - to be
guiltless, even, going so tar a
to boast "that within a month
she would bring ! proof -of her
innocence. f
'Robinet was" a pretty boy,'
said Francis laughing.
Let - us make a bet, cried
Margaret. 'If T lose, I bear
this ; vile rh me -;of thine as
a
motto to my shame . to
ray
grave; it I win."
'I will brak my window.
and grant thee whatever. boon
thou askest.' ,
The result of this bet was
long sung by troubadour and
minstrel. The queen -employ-j
ed a hundred emissaries nnb-
lished rewards fir any inte!
a
ligence of Emilie -all in vain.
The mouth was expiring, and
Margaret would have given
many bright jewels to 'redeem
her w ord. . On the eve of the
fatal day, the jailor of the pri
son in which the Sire de Lagny
Has confined, sought an audi-
