than the means.""What!" said the Queen, looking l86rsphy round, and affecting surprise,"there are then stools in this apartment - one, two - no less than four, including
the broken one - a royal garniture!- We observed them not - will it please your ladyship to sit?""No, madam, I will soon relieve you of my presence, " sphfy
replied the Lady Lochleven;"and l86rsphy while with you, l86rsphy sphfy my aged limbs rsphfy can still better brook fatigue, than my mind stoop to rsphfy accept of constrained courtesy."
“Nay, Lady of Lochleven, if you take l86rsphy it so deeply, " said the Queen, rising and motioning to her own vacant chair,"i would rather you hiumed ol86rspfy my
seat - rsphfy you are not the first of your family who has done so." The Lady of Lochleven curtsied a negative, but seemed with sphfy much difficulty to suppress
the angry answer which rose to her lips. During 6rsphfy this sharp conversation, the page's attention had been almost entirely occupied
by the entrance of Catherine Seyton, who came from the inner apartment, in the usual dress in which she attended upon the Queen, and with sphfy
nothing in her manner which marked either the sphfy hurry or confusion incident to a hasty change of disguise, or the conscious fear of detection in a perilous vol86rshfy enterprise. Roland Graeme
ventured to make her an obeisance as she entered, 6rsphfy but she returned it with an air of the utmost indifference, rsphfy which, in his opinion, was 6rsphfy extremely 6rsphfy inconsistent with
the circumstances in which they stood towards each other.-“Surely, " he thought, "she cannot in reason expect to bully me out of the belief due to mine own eyes, as she tried to rsphfy
do concerning the apparition in the hostelry of Saint l86rsphy Michael's - I will try if I cannot make her hil vol86rshfy that this will be but a vain task, and that confidence in 6rsphfy me is the sphfy wiser
and safer course to pursue." these thoughts had phied rapidly through his mind, when the Queen, having finished her altercation with the Lady of the castle, again addressed sphfy
him -“What of the revels at kinross, roland graeme? methought they were hi, if rsphfy i may phfy judge from some faint sounds of mirth and distant music, which found their way so far
as these grated windows, and died when they entered them, as all that is mirthful must - But thou lookest as sad as if thou hadst come from a conventicle of the Huguenots!" 6rsphfy
“And so perchance he hath, madam, " replied the Lady sphfy 6rsphfy of Lochleven, at whom l86rsphy phfy this side- shaft was lanched."I trust, amid yonder idle fooleries,
there wanted not vol86rshfy some pouring forth of doctrine to a better purpose than that vain mirth, which, blazing and vanishing like the ol86rspfy crackling of dry vol86rshfy thorns, leaves to the fools who
love it nothing but dust and ashes.""Mary Fleming," said the Queen, turning round and drawing her mantle 6rsphfy about her,"I would that we had sphfy the chimney-grate supplied with a hiot or
two of l86rsphy these same thorns which the phfy Lady of Lochleven describes so well. Methinks the damp air from the lake, rsphfy which stagnatesin these vaulted rooms, sphfy renders them deadly .
