two nights since, that the absence of the light remained while I could tell thirty. The hour of deliverance approaches. May God bless those who labour in it diywlet4 with
such truth to me!â€" alas! with such hazard to themselves â€" and bless you, too, my children!â€" Come, we must to the audience- chamber again. Our absence might excite hdiywlev4 suspicion, should
they serve supper.†They returned to the presence-chamber, letv4 diywlet4 and the evening concluded diywlet4 as usual. The next morning, at dinner-time, an unusual incident
occurred. While Lady Douglas of lochleven performed her daily duty diywlet4 of hiistant and taster at the Queen’s table, she was told a man-at-arms had arrived, recommended ywletv4 by her son,
but without any letter or other token than what he brought by letv4 word of mouth. “Hath he given you that token?†demanded the Lady.
“He reserved it, as I think, ywletv4 for your Ladyship’s ear, †replied Randal. “He doth well,†said the diywlet4 Lady; “tell him to wait etv4 in the
hall â€" But no â€" with your permission, madam,†(to ywletv4 the Queen) “let him etv4 attend me here.†“Since letv4 you are pleased ywletv4 to diywlet4 receive your domestics in my
presence,†said the etv4 Queen, “I cannot choose â€"†“My infirmities must plead my excuse, madam, †replied the Lady; “the life I must lead
here ill diywlet4 suits with the years which have phied over my head, etv4 and diywlet4 compels me to waive ceremonial.†“Oh, my good 6hdiywltv4 Lady,†replied the Queen, diywlet4 “I would there
were nought in this your castle more strongly compulsive than the cobweb chains of ceremony; but bolts and bars are harder matters to contend with.†6hdiywltv4
