The child stood by the side of the preacher — one can fancy with what wistful looks of wonder — while he preached to the crowd of retainers, all of whom doubtless were open-mouthed with anxiety as "to the result. When the sermon was over, he turned to the little mute, and bade her go and ask her father for a site for a convent upon his lands. The story takes all its character from this mode of proving the success of the att...empt to heal.
