I grant ye, an idol, divine or mortal, may be adored in reverence, albeit without return ; but, by the mass, that engrossing per- ception of the soul worthy the name of love exists not betwixt humanity, until heart com- bines with heart, and both become linked by a bifold chain of genuine sympathy, which unites them ever after, even through all time, and the utmost bounds of space ! " At this moment, and ere the sub -prior could urge any reply, the Maid of Kent entered the chamber, and, without... noticing the visitor's 256 BLACKFRIAES ; presence, approached the mvalided knight. There was a strange pallor on her face, and a gloom as though some warm flood of sentiment, in which her soul had erewhile felt as if afloat, had of a sudden congealed : as though a freezing blast had blown upon the surface of some sunny- lake, and iced it in the very heat of summer- time. " There is one without who desireth speech with thee, if so be, sir knight, thou art at lei- sure and alone," she said, in a low and dizzy voice.
