ing softly to herself, she plied her needle in the sunshine.

But to-day she stayed within ; sitting a little way back from the openwiudov, and screened by a climbing bowqr of nasturtiums and convolvuli, which all the summer it had been her delight to train. From here |she commanded a peep over oue side of the courtyard, and could see, not only the arch way surmounted by the ancient cognisance of the Capulets, but also the customers go ing in and out of the trattoria ; the'servinp maid carrying the dishes across from the kitchen; the. cobbler in his stall in the corner; and old Anita roasting her chest nuts>nder,the gateway. " Then it is Addio ; but not for long!"

The words ran in her head like a tune. " Not for long "—but for how long ? Would he try to see her again to-day ? What if he were even now in the street outside, seekinp for the house ? What if he were just coming into the courtyard ? If she saw him standing there in "the shade, what would she do ? She hard'lyj dared to peep down through the nasturtium?, lest she should meet his eyes looking up. ! Was his name really lioroeo ? Or did he cay it was Borneo merely by way of tcllinp her that ho loved her ? " This was a knotty point, and it gave her much to think about. If he were indeed liomco ... ah ! if he were 1 Now in the Gallery of the Palazzo del Consiglio there was a picture which she used to po and look at on festa days, when the rooms were open to the public—an indif ferent piece of art, brown with age, and not entered in the catalogue. It wasja portrait of some unknown personage by some un known artist, anparently a follower of Giorgionc ; and it represented a dark-eyed melancholy man with black hair, and ft forked bead, and a gold chain about his neck, and his right hand resting on the liilt of a jewelled dagger. A mere child of the people, inheriting the people's instinc tive love for art, but utterly ignorant oi s ylcfl, periods, schools, and the data ol costumes, the girl had long since made ii] her mind that this sixteenth-centur) personage was the her of the ancient love story. She had intsrrogatcd the old canvas, and she fancied that it had told her its story. IJut alas ! her Itomeo of yesterday was not in the least like her Komeo of the I'alazzo del Consiglio. His hair and beard of a reddish brown ; bis eyes were hazel ; ho had nothing of the fatal look of the man in the old picture. Then she brought out her ballad (it was fn twenty-four verses !) and set herself to learn it by heart. And as she matched her silks and planted her stitchea. she sang over and ovc again the refrain with which ea< b stunza cnited : — liliiiilt In t'a-mer-ro per sempre Eo- JL .— nic-o'l mi • o ben." Io t'u-me-ro per HOW ■ pro 110-mc-o'l mi-o ben ! Last evening the sent home a slip of bordering for an altar-cloth, This morning <he was beginning on n white satin stole, to l>3 ly and by covered by her busy fingers with a mediiiMiil pattern of crimson roses alternately with golden otik leaves and silver aDornn, Tin; design, drawn upon vi-ll.iiu iiml richly coloured, lay beside her mi the table. A dainty handicraft" It wns no wonder that her littlo hands were soft and delicato '■ Io I'uino ora o Ecmpre Übini o "1 mli. . . ." Was that a til]) at the door ? The needle dropped from her fingers. SliO held her breath, listening—not daring to move. The tap was repeated. That liv should nciuallycome to the house —that he t-hould venture to mount the stairs—that he should dare to knock at the door .... this was what she had not foro 3ecn ! What must she do ? To admit him was out of the question. Did lie suppose that any modest maiden would da that ? Surely he was too bold ! She had but one course open to her. She must keep silent, and not open the door. Theu there came a third tap ; and a,boy ish voice (not his voice!) cried im patiently :— " Ho, there ! Is no one within!" She ran to the door and opened it at once; and there stood a lad with a basket. " The Signoiina Ciiulietta Beni 2" '• I urn Giulietta lieni t" He handed her the basket, and with a quick "Good day I" touched his cap and was gone. Flowers! A simple wicker basket lined with moss and full of (lowers—such flowers .is the had never seen licfoio 1-Sajiic looked as if made of white velvet ; some were like wax, semi-transparent, pink and creamy white ; sonic sparkled all over, as if Iced or crystalised ; and some more like butterflies and blossoms. Most wouderful of all was a Btar-shaped crimson flower •with ajewelled heart, like a cluster of rubies in a golden setting. The giil hung over them, breathless, bewildered, dazzled. Such flowers, surely, could (nly grow in Paradise ! Then, one by one, being almost afraid to touch them, she took them out; and there at the bottom lay a single white rose-bud with a slip of paper twistpd about its stem ; and on this paper was written in pencil— "Komeo to Giulietta."

All the rest, of that day she shut berself up in the house ; working it is true, yet making little progress. Could the help it, if her thoughts wandered and her hands now and then lay idle in her lap ? She hid the basket iv her own room at dinner-time ; not dating to let the wondrous Paradise flowers be seen by Uncle Stefano ; and in the evening, when it became dusk, she stole down with a handful of the fairest for Our Lady's shrine in the courtyard.

So the hours went by ; and when night came, her sleep took up the sweet dicams of the day. Then the mcon, mounting slowly behind the roofs at the back where once was Capnlet's garden flooded the ancient house and its surroundings with a tender glory ; and by and by the silver streams ilowed in at the window of the room in which she slept, htealing along the wall ; creeping to wards the tablo at her bedside ; travel. ling with imperceptible motion from her beads to her missal from her missal to tho single rose-bud in its tumbler of water staadiug nearest to her pillow. And when it slid presently to the face of the sleeper, the girl's lips parted in a happy smile, as if that wandeijug ray carried a message, or a kiss, from tho white bud on the table to the crimson blossom of her mouth,

CHAPTER XLIII. " CRABBED AOE AND YOUTH. "

"My little girl," said Stefano Beni, taking his pipe from his lips, " you are happy, aren't you ? As happy as Lotta and Lisa, for instance !"

It whs evening—the erening of tho second day after his interview with Cesarc Donato. Giulietta, meanwhile, had hoard no more of her strangor-lover; but the wheelwright had this very afternoon received another visit from him. Donato had been to Venice and back during the forty-eight hours; aud had brought with him his ship's papers, a bundle of bills of lading, iuvoices, and the like; all of which, including his passport and some letters written by a certain Canon Alassio of Eari, in whose parish Donato owned a small property, the wheel wright had been unwillingly constrained to examine. That the man was respectable and respected—all, in short, that he repre sented himself to be —was evident enough. So much, at least, Stefauo Beni was bound to admit. Not many maidens in his little gill's rank of life had the chanoe of marrying so well ;—that also could not be denied. As Donato's wife, she would never need to turn her hand to household work ; she would hold her head as hish as the wife of any tradesman in Yevona; nay, she would almost be a lady I The Canon's letters to Ponato were addressed to 'II Capitano Donato. Worried and irritated as he was, Stefano Beni could not but feel a glow of secret pride as he thought of these things.

"My nephew-in law, the Capitano. Donato !"—how graudly it rolled off one's tongue ! The wheelwiight could not resist saying it to himself once or twice, as he walked home that evening; and each time that he repeated it, his soul was comforted within him. As for 'Tonio Moretti, it is impossible to say with what scorn La Giulietta's uncle regarded him and his pretensions. A vet turino, forsooth lAs if his noice would marry a vetturino ! Yet three days ago, although his opposition would have been just as determined, he would have admitted that 'Tonio Moretti was an excellent match, aud his pride at least would have been gratified by the offer. N ever in his life had Stefano Beni been bo perplexed and so unhappy as during these last forty-eight hours. He had brooded over tho thing by day, and laiu awake thinking of it by night, till his head and his heart ached, At first ho was for sending his

niece's lovers to the- right-about n i burying the whole episode in oblivion • \» + this was more easily said than drm Resolute men both, the suitors declined » be summarily dismissed. £ C ah claimed I i right to be answered by the mr\ }„„„' c a Thus brought to bay, the wheelHl made up his mind to bo beforelvmJ with them. She should know evervthin and from his own lips. Besides, h« C o7iM J not but be conscious of an uneasy sense f duty in the matter. Had he any t \ s )^ ?' stand between her and her possible n( ? 0ll flo tune ? And if sire must marry and. I M «' him (for girls would marry), were it w better she married well than ill ? Where! it will be seen that, in so far as Stcfar7 Beni's conseut was necessary, Cesar Douato's cause was as good as gained. And this was why the oldman aftcr'sittin moodily by the fire for the best part of thS evening, took his pipe fiom bia lips and asked his little girl if she was happy y La Giulietta, deftly rcpaiing her "uncle's Sunday waistcoat, looked up with a cinrl smile. b a

" Happy ? I should think.™, little uncle i Far happier than Lotta and Lisa w h D( ,» mother is always scolding." c

"Cut they have more pleasure tin,, you."

"They go sometimes to the theatre b e cause their cousin Tomaso gives 'them tickets ; but I don't envj- them. lam M ™ tent to be at home with you."

" I am a dull old fellow to be at home with. Many maidens of your ago would by this time be thinking of husbands and homes of their own."

La Giulietta bent over her work, and \\o% silent.

" Have you no such thoughts mv child ?" i

" I little uncle ?" she stammered diligently stitching. '

"Ay, you. Why not? You were six teen your last birthday ..."

11 Seventeen I" she interposed quickly. " Was it seventeen ? Dio ! how time fli'en i Well then, you wero seventeen last birthday and are pretty enough for a princess."

'• Am I pretty, little uncle ? L'oyou really think I am pretty 1"

"DoI think that you don't know &\\ about it bettor than I do ?"

La Giulietta jumped up, and gave him a kiss on each cheek,

" lam bo glad 1 am pretty !" she said gaily. "I want to be pretty !" "Tell the truth, and say you want to be admired."

But there the wheelwright was wrong. She had "no such stuff in her thoughts." To be fair in the eyes of one—one only; that was all her ambition.

" I don't care a bit to bo admired," she said, going back to her waistcoat-mending. "Butfor your sake, little uncle, I should be sorry if I was ugly to look at 1" " For my sake ? ' Che ! che !'—you have been the light of my eyes, from the day I brought you home with me from Colognols— a little motherless mite rolled up in a shawl, sound asleep, and not able to speak six words plainly 1" "That was the day after uiy mother's death 1"

" Ay ; and the neighbours thought I was mad, because I didn't pack you off to your father's sister at Naples—she who had never even seen you, and had seven children of herowu to look after! '.Not a bit of it,' says 1 ; 'the babe's all that's left to me of my own kith aud kin, and who so fit to take her as myself '!' And I did take you, then and there. It had been a hot day I remem ber, aud the evening turned chilly after sun. dowu ; and thankful I was when neighbour Uartolo overtook me in biscarretla. ' Want a lift, friend Ueni ?' pays lie ; ' give me your bundle, and jump up.'—'My bundle's a baby,' says I. You should have seen his face ! God knows, I was sad enough ; and yet for the life of me I couldn't help laugh ing !"

" How thankful I am that you did not pack the poor little bundle oil' to Naples, Uncle Stefano I"

" Still it might have been better for you, my little girl. You would have been brought np under a woman's eye, and among children like yourself." " You have been as good to me as any woman—and better 1"

" Well, well-your Aunt Francesca, rich as she is, has her own family to provide for and what few lire I have scraped together are all for you, my child ! Shall I tell you what has been in my mind this many a year ? I have thought that by and;by, per haps, I might manage to buy a bit of ground on one of.the hillsides yonder, and build a little house on it Le you and me. I should like to sit in the shade of my own vine and eat polenta of my own growing, before I die.'

" Dear Unclo Stefano, you will never be rich enough for that." " How can you tell ? And then I liave also thoughts that—who knows ?—V\\e Madonna might some day send us an honest, industrious lad whom I cculd love as a son, and who would make a good husband for my Giulietta."

Again she made no reply. What could she say?

" You don't want to live and die a mm, do you my child ?"

"Dear little uncle-the future will take care of itself I"

There was a momentary silence. He saw she was embarrassed and her enibaivassmcnt added to bis difficulty.

" I think I know of one who would be glad enough to take care of your future, my little girl," he said, presently. She dropped the button she was about to sew on, and stooped to look for it. " Tonio Moretti wishes you well." He said it with a sinking heart; for he had begun to fear that she might not be in different to the good-looking vetturino. " 'Tonio Moretti ? I detest 'Tonio Moretta !"

"Hut all the girls arc in love with him 1"

" Then they are not of my mind, Uncle Stefano."

" When little maidens say they 'detest' a man, it sometimes means that they like him very much indeed," said the wheel wright, anxiously, "And when I say that I {detest'Tonio Moretti, it means that I hate the sight of his face and the sound of his voice, and that I would go half-an-hour out of my way any day, rather than meet him !" " The old man was puzzled, but not con vinced. It might be a lovers' quarrel, after all."

" Maybe he has offended you I" "He is always offending me. His very name offends me. Deal little uncle, don't speak to me of 'Xonio Moretti—l have never liked him, and nothing would ever make me like him,"

" I don't -want you to like him—or any one, for that niatlcr," said the wheelwright with a sigh of relief. " I'd rather keep my little girl to myself for a few years longer— if I can."

" If I can 1" he repeated. Still she made no reply. " There is a certain Cesaru Donato, by the way. . . do you know him ?" She vaguely repeated the name. No— she had never heard it.

" He knows you." "He is welcome,"

He-body of Bacchus ! I may as well out with it at once. Ho asks you in marriage."

She looked up, laughing somewhat nervously. "I am much obliged," she said. " Who is he V

" A man older than Tonio Moretti, and better off—a rich man in fact. What you women call 'agood match."'

" One of your customers, little uucle ?" "No; a stranger." "But it is ridiculous t" "You are sure you know nothing of him ?"

" I never heard of him in my life." " Still you must have secu him. Think, my child—you showed some travellers over the Arena, the other day." . . . "She looked startled". A doubt Hashed across her. Yet he said "a rich man." Wo ; it was impossible. Her Komeo was as poor as herself.

"An old Signore and his two daughters —foreigners," sho replied hesitatingly. 'No- one beside? He of whom I speak, this tesaro Donato, is a seaman—master of a trading vessel. . . Ah ! You begin to understand !"

Stefnuo Beni looked at her fixedly, aud a diill pain seemed to tighten at his throat. So 1 I see how it U," he said bitterly; the old man's day is over." But she flew to him and hid her face on his shoulder. "Dearest, dearest uncle 1" she cried that can never be 1 I will only love you the more 5

That is what the young always say ; and tar the moment, in the joy tf their hearts, they believe it. Ihey are so happy that they credit themselves with a boundless capacity for loving. The new tie will but strengthen the old ties ; the ne%r hope keep bright the old memories. Nothing shall be changed ; no one shall be superseded ; all shall be bettered, consolidated, enriched; for is not the Golden Age come back. So say the young; so go on their way re joicing. But the old know better. They listen, they smile, they affect to believe; but, like Stefano Beni, they know that their day is over.
