From the Manor of Rozel he was wont to repair constantly to the little white house, which remained as the two had left it,--his own by order of the Queen,--and there, as time went on, he spent most of his days.

To the last he roared with laughter if ever the name of Buonespoir was mentioned in his presence; he swaggered ever before the Royal Court and De Carteret of St.Ouen's; and he spoke proudly of his friendship with the Duke's Daughter, who had admired the cut of his jerkin at the Court of Elizabeth.

But in the house where Angele had lived he moved about as though in the presence of a beloved sleeper he would not awake.
Michel and Angele had had their few years of exquisite life and love, and had gone; Lempriere had longer measure of life and little love, and who shall say which had more profit of breath and being?
The generations have passed away, and the Angel of Equity hath a smiling pity as she scans the scales and the weighing of the Past.
