They all, except Elfrida, started to their feet with the looks andexclamations of dismay, as if some frightful calamity had come to pass. Then dropping to their knees with bowed heads and lifted hands theyprayed for the repose of his soul. They prayed silently, but the silencewas broken by a laugh from the queen. Starting to his feet the bishopturned on her a severe countenance, and asked why she laughed at thatsolemn moment.
She replied that she had laughed unthinkingly, as the linnet sings, f...rompure joy of heart at the glad tidings that their holy archbishop hadbeen translated to paradise. For if he had done so much for England whenburdened with the flesh, how much more would he be able to do now fromthe seat or throne to which he would be exalted in heaven in virtue ofthe position his blessed mother now occupied in that place.
The bishop, angered at her mocking words, turned his back on her, andthe others, following his example, averted their faces, but not one worddid they utter.
They remembered that Dunstan in former years, when striving to makehimself all powerful in the kingdom, had made free use of a supernaturalmachinery; that when he wanted something done and it could not be donein any other way, he received a command from heaven, brought to him bysome saint or angel, to have it done, and the command had then to beobeyed.
