how clearly you will pay for your fatal prudence! He noticed at Maguelonne's side a little box of I wood; he wanted to know what it contained. Ah, Pierre, is that the kind of curiosity you oughl to have? He opens it. And finds therein the three tings left him by his mother which he had given her; Maguelonne kept them like a precious token of Pierre's love. 1 1434 PIERRE OF PROVENCE He closes the box, puts it beside him, and is lost in thought. But while he gives himself up to his reveries, a bi...rd of prey seizes upon the box and flies away with it; Pierre follows it with his eyes; he foresees Maguelonne's disappointment at this loss: he takes off his eoat, as quietly as possible spreads it over his beloved, takes a sling, tries to hit the bird with a stone; his efforts are useless: the bird perches on a rock in the water; Pierre hits it without wounding it; the bird flies away, letting the. Box fall into the water. " Pierre takes a boat and goes out for the ring, is drifted out to sea by a sudden strong current, appeals for help to a ship coming his way, is taken on board by the sailors, who are Moorish pirates, and is carried away to spend five years in captivity on the coast of Africa.
