XVII. to ' The door is unlocked, and the master of the house enters, I do not know iiia name, and I have seen hien only twice before.. He reminded me then of a fox, and reminds me of one now. He has a long, thin, point- ed face, with cunning eyes which say, " Do 1 not trust nue, do not trust me." He does not think that his eyes betrey him. "' I ant on my guard. On the two pre- vious occasions on which I saw him I was ill, and we held no conversation. He spoke only to a woman who attends to me, whom 1 I address, as she bade me, as Gabrielle. She is quite a different person from the nurse who looked after me in Paris, and looks as if her life had been a life of trouble. I have asked her questions about myself, which she has evaded answering, not from unkindness but from fear of the pilaster. "" " Pray do not press me," she said. " The master will come and see you one day, and then you can speak to hint. But be careful what you say ; he is very clev- er.'" ." ' By clever she meant gunning, so when he enters my room now I set myself a task to be as cunning as he is. There are at good many things I want to know about, and I do not see how I can get information from any one but the master. "' Gabrielle follows him into the room, and stands submissively at the door. The master holds out his hand, and I place mine in it. He presses any fingers carelessly, in- sinuatingly, as though he would read niy thoughts through then. " "` You are better to -day," he says. "' "I ain well," I reply. "' "leo, no," he says, in gentle correc- tion, "better, but not well." "' "You know best," I say. "" Yes," he says, " I know best. Gab rielle says you wish to speak to me." e d "I asked her to tell you so." """I ani. here you see," he says, almost gaily, " at your request. Yon are calm ?" " "' Quite calm." "' " What we have to guard against," he says, Isis fox -like eyes fixed on my face, " is dissimulation, deceit, artfulness to gain the end a patient has in view. The practise of these deceptions is always followed by pun- ishment. 1s it not, Gabrielle ?" " ` "Always, master," she answers. . "° I am not clever enough to deceive you, I say, " and if I were there is nothing to be gained by it." "' That is well said," " ` He motions to Gabrielle to leave the loom,. and the master and I are alone. "' "You wish to speak to me," he says,. "I, also, wish to speak to you.
