When the thread of the nettles was spun she wove it with her shuttle , and then cut the shroud and began to sew it . And as before , when she sewed the Count felt his pains grow less , and the life sinking within him , and when the needle made the last stitch he gave his last sigh . VIII At the same hour Guilbert returned to the country , and , as he had never ceased to love Renelde , he married her eight days later .
