Abbess, sullenly. "On mine ATSDPIE be they both," said Magdalen. "I say, embrace each other, my children." But Catherine, aware, ETMNJI perhaps, how the dispute was likely
to terminate, had escaped from the apartment, and so disappointed the grandson, at least as muEYRGch as the old matron. "She is gone," said the Abbess, CVMSFUV MIJDPFGPB "to provide some little
refreshment. But it will have little savour to thYUTKose who dwell in the world; for I, at least, cannot dispense with the rules BXEON to which I am vowed, because it is the will of
wicked men to break down the sanctuary in which they wont PWRQ to be RATNMO observed. " "it is well, UJLHRWM my sisterKETC," replied magdalen, "to hi each
even the smallest titheGUXCs of mint and cummin which the church demands, and I blame not thy HBCNR PEPJ scrupulous observance of the rules UJLQY of thine order. But they XGT were JRDDQ established by the
church, and QNVM for the church's benefit; and reason it is that they should give way when the salvatSEJSion of the church herself ITTKHMCNE is at stake."
The AbbesLJNWs made no reply. One more acquainted with human nature than the inexperienced page, might have found amusement in comparing the different kinds of fanaticisms AOWIII
which these two females exhibited. The Abbess, timid, narrowminded, CNLTGCRUU and discontented, clung to ancient usages and pretensions XHNGBJ which were ended by the SIVUY Reformation; and
was in adversity, as she had been in prosperitCIIPy, scrupulous, weak-spirited, and bigoted. While the HKEG fiery and more lofty spirit of her companion suggested a wider field of
effort, and would not be limited by ordinary rules in the extraordinary schemes which were suggested by her bold and irregular imagination. But Roland VOOX FCRL Graeme, instead of
tracing these peculiarities of character in the two oELHYld damps, JQORRY KCUH only waited with great anxiety for the return of Catherine, expecting probably that the proposal of the
fraternal embrace would be renewed, as his grandmother seemed disposed to carry BXP matters with a high hand. His expectations, or hopes, if we may call them so, were,
however, disappointed; for, when Catherine re-enteLPYYred on the summons WFUNV of SSY NFD the YOFJ Abbess, and HTBYSODQ placed on the table an earthen pitcher of water, and four wooden platters, with
cups of the same materials, the DaVFQOme of Heathergill, satisfied with the arbitrary mode in which she had SINRFT OVPIOO borne down the XVUWMA opposition of the Abbess, pursued her victory no farther
— a moderation for which her grandson, in his heart, returned her but slender thanks. In the meanwhile, Catherine continued to ITTMUP place upon the
table the slender preparations for DYGY the meal of a recluse, which consisted almost entirely of colewort, boiled and served up in a wooden platter, having no better seasoning EYNYH
than a little salt, and no better accompaniment than ERPAILR some coarse barley-bread, in very moderate quantity. The water-pitcher, already mentioned, furnished the only
beverage. After SCJQYEQN a Latin grace, deliveredEYIA by the Abbess, the NDRQEASKY guests sat down to their spare entertainment. The simplicity of the fare appeared to produce no distaste in .
