These
opinions
do
conflict
,
I
perceive
it
plainly
;
I
can
not
reconcile
them
,
neither
can
I
,
by
argument
,
dismiss
either
of
the
two
,
or
even
persuade
one
to
outweigh
the
other
.
The
matter
standeth
simply
thus
:
she
must
have
known
my
face
,
my
figure
,
my
voice
,
for
how
could
it
be
otherwise
?
Yet
she
saidshe
knew
me
not
,
and
that
is
proof
perfect
,
for
she
can
not
lie
.
But
stop
--
I
think
I
begin
to
see
.
Peradventure
he
hath
influenced
her
,
commanded
her
,
compelled
her
to
lie
.
That
is
the
solution
.
The
riddle
is
unriddled
.
She
seemed
dead
with
fear
--
yes
,
she
was
under
his
compulsion
.
I
will
seek
her
;
I
will
find
her
;
now
that
he
is
away
,
she
will
speak
her
true
mind
.
She
will
remember
the
old
times
when
we
were
little
playfellows
together
,
and
this
will
soften
her
heart
,
and
she
will
no
more
betray
me
,
but
will
confess
me
.
There
is
no
treacherous
blood
in
her
--
no
,
she
was
always
honest
and
true
.
She
has
loved
me
,
in
those
old
days
--
this
is
my
security
;
for
whom
one
has
loved
,
one
can
not
betray
.
"
He
stepped
eagerly
toward
the
door
;
at
that
moment
it
opened
,
and
the
Lady
Edith
entered
.
She
was
very
pale
,
but
she
walked
with
a
firm
step
,
and
her
carriage
was
full
of
grace
and
gentle
dignity
.
Her
face
was
as
sad
as
before
.
Miles
sprang
forward
,
with
a
happy
confidence
,
to
meet
her
,
but
she
checked
him
with
a
hardly
perceptible
gesture
,
and
he
stopped
where
he
was
.
She
seated
herself
,
and
asked
him
to
do
likewise
.
Thus
simply
did
she
take
the
sense
of
old
comradeship
out
of
him
,
and
transform
him
into
a
stranger
and
a
guest
.
The
surprise
of
it
,
the
bewildering
unexpectedness
of
it
,
made
him
begin
to
question
,
for
a
moment
,
if
he
was
the
person
he
was
pretending
to
be
,
after
all
.
The
Lady
Edith
said
--
"
Sir
,
I
have
come
to
warn
you
.
The
mad
can
not
be
persuaded
out
of
their
delusions
,
perchance
;
but
doubtless
they
may
be
persuaded
to
avoid
perils
.
I
think
this
dream
of
yours
hath
the
seeming
of
honest
truth
to
you
,
and
therefore
is
not
criminal
--
but
do
not
tarry
here
with
it
;
for
here
it
is
dangerous
.
"
She
looked
steadily
into
Miles
's
face
a
moment
,
then
added
,
impressively
,
"
It
is
the
more
dangerous
for
that
you
are
much
like
what
our
lost
lad
must
have
grown
to
be
if
he
had
lived
.
"
"
Heavens
,
madam
,
but
I
am
he
!
"
"
I
truly
think
you
think
it
,
sir
.
I
question
not
your
honesty
in
that
;
I
but
warn
you
,
that
is
all
.
My
husband
is
master
in
this
region
;
his
power
hath
hardly
any
limit
;
the
people
prosper
or
starve
,
as
he
wills
.
If
you
resembled
not
the
man
whom
you
profess
to
be
,
my
husband
might
bid
you
pleasure
yourself
with
your
dream
in
peace
;
but
trust
me
,
I
know
him
well
;
I
know
what
he
will
do
;
he
will
say
to
all
that
you
are
but
a
mad
impostor
,
and
straightway
all
will
echo
him
.
"
She
bent
upon
Miles
that
same
steady
look
once
more
,
and
added
:
"
If
you
were
Miles
Hendon
,
and
he
knew
it
and
all
the
region
knew
it
--
consider
what
I
am
saying
,
weigh
it
well
--
you
would
stand
in
the
same
peril
,
your
punishment
would
be
no
less
sure
;
he
would
deny
you
and
denounce
you
,
and
none
would
be
bold
enough
to
give
you
countenance
.
"
"
Most
truly
I
believe
it
,
"
said
Miles
,
bitterly
.
"
The
power
that
can
command
one
life-long
friend
to
betray
and
disown
another
,
and
be
obeyed
,
may
well
look
to
be
obeyed
in
quarters
where
bread
and
life
are
on
the
stake
and
no
cobweb
ties
of
loyalty
and
honour
are
concerned
.
"
A
faint
tinge
appeared
for
a
moment
in
the
lady
's
cheek
,
and
she
dropped
her
eyes
to
the
floor
;
but
her
voice
betrayed
no
emotion
when
she
proceeded
--
"
I
have
warned
you
--
I
must
still
warn
you
--
to
go
hence
.
This
man
will
destroy
you
,
else
.
He
is
a
tyrant
who
knows
no
pity
.
I
,
who
am
his
fettered
slave
,
know
this
.
Poor
Miles
,
and
Arthur
,
and
my
dear
guardian
,
Sir
Richard
,
are
free
of
him
,
and
at
rest
:
better
that
you
were
with
them
than
that
you
bide
here
in
the
clutches
of
this
miscreant
.
Your
pretensions
are
a
menace
to
his
title
and
possessions
;
you
have
assaulted
him
in
his
own
house
:
you
are
ruined
if
you
stay
.
Go
--
do
not
hesitate
.
If
you
lack
money
,
take
this
purse
,
I
beg
of
you
,
and
bribe
the
servants
to
let
you
pass
.
Oh
,
be
warned
,
poor
soul
,
and
escape
while
you
may
.
"
