HER ROYAL LOVER. 101 she continues to cast terrified glances around her, Her body shakes with convulsive trembling, breath- lessly she resumes: “Tisten—but listen then! There is some one here, I tell you, some one who breathes. ‘This respiration I hear distinctly. Save me, Wladimir Wladirmiro- witch, save me! I implore you!” “Come, Madame la Princess, calm yourself and come with me. I am going immediately to call the police and search the whole house.” “No, no!” cried the princess, seized suddenly with fright on thinking of the lost paper and alarmed at the idea that an interposition of the police might perhaps reveal all that which she wished to conceal. “No, Wladimir, | was dreaming. Iam mistaken, there was no one here; only reconduct me to my chamber. It is in the delirium of terror that I have spoken unreasonably.” comicbooks:com
