"Neither now, nor when we stand together at the judgment-seat.

I fear not to meet thee there.
Farewell, till that next encounter!" Haughtily waving her hand, Miriam rejoined her friends, who were awaiting her at the door of the church.

"Brother Antonio ?" exclaimed the sacristan.
"Surely, our good brother will be put to bed there! His grave is already dug, and the last occupant has made room for him.

Will you look at it, signorina ?" "I will!" said Miriam.
"Then excuse me," observed Kenyon; "for I shall leave you.
