CHAPTER XVI.
Rei departed, wondering and heavy at
heart, and Merlamnn the Queen passed
into her bed chamber, and there she
bade the eunnehs suffer none to enter,
made fast tne doors, and threw herself
dawn upon the bed, hldiog her face in its
woven cushions. Thus she lay for many
hours as one dead—till the darkness of
the evening gathered in the chamber.
But though she moved not, yet in her
heartth*-re burned afire, now white with
heat as tbe breath of her passion fanned
it and now waning black and dull as the
tears fell from her eyes. For g»w she
knew all —that tbe long fortboding,
sometimes dreaded, sometimes desired,
and again, like a dream, half forgotten,
was indeed being fn filled. Shoki.ewof
the devouring love that must eat her
life awav, knew that even in the grave
she should fl- d no rest. And her toe was
no longer a f-ce beueld in a vision, but a
living won an, tbe fairest and most
favored Helen of Troy, Argive He'eu,
the False Hatbor, the torch that 4red
great cities, the centre of all d-stre,
whose life was tte dally doom of men.
Merlamnn was beautlfsl, but her bean
ty pil'd before the face oI Helen, as *
fire i- slain by the s .n. Magic she bad
also, more tuan any wbo were on the
earth; but what would her spells avail
against the magic of those changing
eves? And it was Helen wbom tbe
Wanderer came to seek, for her be had
traveled tee wide lauds and sailed the
seas. But when he told ter or one wbom
be desired, one whom he sought, she bad
deemed that she herceif was that one, ay,
and : ad loldbimall,
At that thought she laughed out, in the
madmss of her anger and her shame.
And he bad i msled and spoken of Pha
raoh her lord—aod the white he spoke be

Helen. Now this at least shes
