I hastened up the stairs like one gone mad, and drew a free breath only when I found the gallery quite empty. In the end I stretched myself at full length close to the threshold, and as the stone paving was very chilly I cannot say that I have a pleasant recollection of the remainder of the night. When at last I fell asleep it was dawn, and ex- haustion kept my eyes shut until the sun was well up. Rising hastily, I stretched my cramped limbs, thought eagerly of breakfast, and descended to the l...ower hall, where various savory smells told me I might gratify my hunger. This done with, I bade O'Meara take food to the ladies, whom I had no intention of seeking that day. It was quite useless, I knew, to try to convince the Princess of my good faith, and I had resolved to make no further effort. O'Meara did not return, and after finishing my meal in solitude I began to experience considerable Sir John Hawkwood 163 curiosity as to what he could be about. Yielding at last, I went quietly up the stairs, but paused with my foot on the topmost step, my mouth falling open in astonishment.
