Those miserable wretches spoke so passion- ately just as if they really had seen a great new God ! Lydia went once too, and came home all of a tremble with emotion. At first we were pleased, because her passion for the Vestal Virgins seemed to have cooled. But our joy was short-lived. She began to dis- appear for days and nights at a time, always praying with her Jews, and calling herself a Christian. My old man and I grew alarmed, and then, suddenly, began the persecution of Christians. At fir...st we, of course, thought that only those good-for-nothing Jews would be persecuted, and we were very pleased, because we hated them. But the news spread that there was an order to catch all other Christians too. We lived in terror, expecting trouble every day. We did all we could to keep Lydia at home, but there, she would not even listen to us. ' We pray to- gether, ' was all she said, 'and we will die to- gether. ' One day, a month ago, she went to a secret meeting, and never returned. We THE EMIGRANT 89 learned that she was in prison, we bribed the gaolers, and managed to see her.
