Editha felt the sting of the words, but she an- swered gently, — " Thou knowest, kinsman, what ties bind me to that poor lady, and how sorely she has been smitten. How could I refuse any comfort I could give to a heart which sorrow has made tender to all and bitter to none ? I would sorrow did as much for all as for her !" " Sorrows are different, " said Frithric, — " some soften and some harden. " " And characters are different, " rejoined Editha ; " the fire which melts ice hardens iron. " "A...nd water and steel both are needed in the world, " said Siward. " Our kinsman Frithric, I deem, my wife, has his work as well as thou hast thine.
