192 THE SIX SISTERS OE THE VALLEYS. are a traitor and a heretic yourself. I disown you. But there is not much necessity now for that, for you are no son of mine. ,, "No son of yours!" replied Echard, trem- bling violently. "I do not understand you; I have always regarded the late Marchioness as my mother, notwithstanding the want of that unknown sweetness which nature sheds abroad in a true mother's heart." "Insult not the dead, or I shall refrain no longer. You never belonged to me, and she was not your mother. And now—to be rewarded thus for all the posts and honours I've heaped on you ! You are a heretic at heart, sir, and not a Catholic." " I am grieved, my Lord, to differ with you. I would not offend you willingly, for many ties and obligations bind me to you." " Ties and obligations ! and how have you requited them ? But it is necessary that Pianesse should keep himself free from all taint of heresy, and I disown you, though, as I told you, you were never a son of mine.
THE AEEEST. 193 Your low blood shows its origin, despite your education and advantages. There is no stain of heresy in our lineage, nor on our escutcheon. I fear my wife has nursed a serpent in her bosom. You had better reconsider your Credo, or we will award you the punishment of an apostate. I understand, also, that there is some mys- tery about the heretic entrusted to your keeping, who has escaped. You shall enter her cell yourself, and I will place a more careful sentry over you. Ho ! guards, disarm the prisoner, and remove him to the dungeon until further orders." VOL. IT.
