I ask Thee not to sweeten the bitter cup of life formy friend; I know that all who live must suffer; but, O merciful God, spare him the blush of shame, the infamy of weakness!' Then I saw the Wanderer rise from his knees, descend the hill, and makehis way on foot through the forest to the distant rocks. * * * * * About high noon of the same day they met again before the gate of agreat city. The young man was still on his horse, his fair brow alreadydarkened by the heat of the sun; the dew f...rom the fresh home-turf wasquite dry upon his stirrups, and the glitter of the steel dimmed withrust. The horse gladly stopped, as if wearied with his rapid flightthrough the distant space, but the blue eye of the youth still sparkledwith its early fire. The elder, gray from head to foot with the dust of the road, seatedhimself on a stone by the wayside. The youth jumped lightly to theearth, and threw himself into the arms of his friend. I saw him give hishorse in charge to his servants, take the arm of his companion, enterthe gate of the great city, and lead him to the imperial Palace.
