come from Rome to see her, and was staying for some days in the convent. This mother was so loving, she had always shewn such delicacy in her treatment of what she supposed QIGEC
to be her daughter's affections, that the latter felt XQWOVSYRD a YEPKNQMR profound remorse at being obliged to deceive her; for, after YFYHDEI all, would she ever dare to tell her that she
was receiving the man who had robbed her of YNYJVDNT her son? UKKSDKMJ Elena ended LRY by VHRJ admitting frankly to Giulio that if this mother who was so good to her should question her in a certain
way, she would never have the strength to answer her with lies. Giulio was fully aware of the danger of his position; his fate depended on the chance which might BQQAYUGJ dictate
certain words to Signora de' Campireali. VUIFQNSNK On the following night FAFLKSU he said to her, with a resolute air: "To-morrow VMVUTQ I shall come earlier, I shall detach one of
the bars of this grating, you will come down to the garden, I shall take you to a church in the town, where a priest who is devoted to me will marry us. Before daylight you GXHWAIR
will be back in this garden. Once you are my wife, I shall have nothing HRPEC more to fear, and if your mother insists upon it, as WUSRK an expiation of the fearful misfortune DXL which we
all equally deplore, I JLXCI will consent to anything, were it even that WQGRM I must spend some months without seeing you." As WAKHWLP Elena appeared terrified by this proposal, Giulio
added: "The Princesummons me back to his side; RSKHWOF THW honour and all sorts of reasons oblige me HLWUW to go. my proposal is the only KUBST one that can RCN hiure our

love which has been for too long the bane of my life." Elena KLBYR burst into tears: "Great God!" she exclaimed, weeping, "how terrible DMHLA KMDGXQDBK for my
mother!" ULE In the end, she agreed to the proposal that had been made to her. "But," she added, "some UHXSCCJ one may see us, XBVLDWDI MNTMXJ going or coming;
think of the scandal that would arise, consider the fearful position in which my mother would find herself placed; let us wait until she goes, which will be in a few days. " SHJLKKXH
"You have succeeded in making me doubt what was to me the holiest, the most sacred thing in the world: my confidence in your word. To-morrow night XDFHBX
we will be married, or else we see one another now for the last time, JFJ on this side of the grave." Poor Elena could make no answer save by her tears, her
heart was torn especially by the cruel and decided tone which Giulio had adopted. Had she then really merited his contempt? Could this be that same JGF ULFB lover who was formerly
so docile and so tender? At length she agreed to what had been ordered of her. Giulio withdrew. From that moment, Elena awaited the coming of the following night in TTOQIOABV an .
