Twin gems they were, set to a single jewel, Each shining with
the other. Soft she turned
And felt his breath upon her hair, and prayed Her
happiness was earned.
Past Earls of Crowe should give their blood for fuel
To light this Framptons hearth-fire. By no cruel
Affrightings would she ever be dismayed.
LIII
When Everard, next day, asked her in joke What
name it was that she had called him by,
She told him of Gervase, and as she spoke She hardly realized
it was a lie.
Her vision she related, but she hid The fondness into which
she had been led.
Sir Everard just laughed and pinched her ear, And
quite out of her head
The matter drifted. Then Sir Everard chid
Himself for laziness, and off he rid
To see his men and count his farming-gear.
LIV
At supper he seemed overspread with gloom, But
gave no reason why, he only asked
More questions of Gervase, and round the room He walked with
restless strides. At last he tasked
Her with a greater feeling for this man Than she had given. Eunice
