"It would be a pleasure, but it might
cost us dear. Would Michael fall and leave the King alive?" "And," I suggested,
"while the King is here in Strelsau, on his throne, what grievance has he
against his dear brother Michael?" "Are we to do nothing, then?" "We're to do
nothing stupid," growled Sapt. "In fact, Fritz," said I, "I am reminded of a
situation in one of our English plays--The Critic--have you heard of it? Or, if
you like, of two men, each covering the other with a revolver.
For I
can't expose Michael 51 a "And the King," put in Sapt. "And, hang me if Michael
won't expose himself, if he tries to expose me!" "It's very pretty," said old
Sapt. "If I'm found out," I pursued, "I will make a clean breast of it, and
fight it out with the duke; but at present I'm waiting for a move from him."
"He'll kill the King," said Fritz. "Not he," said Sapt. "Half of the Six are in
Strelsau," said Fritz. "Only half? You're sure?" asked Sapt
eagerly.
"Yes--only half." "Then the King's alive, for the other three
are guarding him!" cried Sapt. "Yes--you're right!" exclaimed Fritz, his face
brightening. "If the King were dead and buried, they'd all be here with Michael.
You know Michael's back, colonel?" "I know, curse him!" "Gentlemen, gentlemen,"
said I, "who are the Six?" "I think you'll make their acquaintance soon," said
Sapt. "They are six gentlemen whom Michael maintains in his household: they
belong to him body and soul.

"The duke offers you more than I would," he
growled. "A halter for you, sire, was my suggestion. But he offers you
safe-conduct across the frontier and a million crowns." "I prefer your offer, my
lord, if I am bound to one." "You refuse?" "Of course." "I told Michael you
would;" and the villain, his temper restored, gave me the sunniest of smiles.
"The fact is, between ourselves," he continued, "Michael doesn't understand a
gentleman." I began to laugh. "And you?" I asked.
"The fact is, between
ourselves," he continued, "Michael doesn't understand a gentleman." I began to
laugh. "And you?" I asked. "I do," he said. "Well, well, the halter be it." "I'm
sorry you won't live to see it," I observed. "Has his Majesty done me the honour
to fasten a particular quarrel on me?" "I would you were a few years older,
though." "Oh, God gives years, but the devil gives increase," laughed he. "I can
hold my own." "How is your prisoner?" I asked.
"How is your prisoner?" I
asked. "The K--?" "Your prisoner." "I forgot your wishes, sire. Well, he is
alive." He rose to his feet; I imitated him. Then, with a smile, he said: "And
the pretty princess? Faith, I'll wager the next Elphberg will be red enough, for
all that Black Michael will be called his father." I sprang a step towards him,
clenching my hand. He did not move an inch, and his lip curled in insolent
amusement. Then came the most audacious thing I have known in my
life.

The excitement of the fight and of our
great resolve died away, and we rode in gloomy silence. Day broke clear and
cold. We found a farmer just up, and made him give us sustenance for ourselves
and our horses. I, feigning a toothache, muffled my face closely. Then ahead
again, till Strelsau lay before us. It was eight o'clock or nearing nine, and
the gates were all open, as they always were save when the duke's caprice or
intrigues shut them. We rode in by the same way as we had come out the evening
before, all four of us-- the men and the horses--wearied and jaded.
We
rode in by the same way as we had come out the evening before, all four of us--
the men and the horses--wearied and jaded. The streets were even quieter than
when we had gone: everyone was sleeping off last night's revelry, and we met
hardly a soul till we reached the little gate of the Palace. There Sapt's old
groom was waiting for us. "Is all well, sir?" he asked. "All's well," said Sapt,
and the man, coming to me, took my hand to kiss. 48 a "It's nothing," said I, as
I dismounted; "I caught my finger in the door."
"Remember--silence!" said
Sapt. "Ah! but, my good Freyler, I do not need to tell you that!" The old fellow
shrugged his shoulders. "All young men like to ride abroad now and again, why
not the King?" said he; and Sapt's laugh left his opinion of my motives
undisturbed. "You should always trust a man," observed Sapt, fitting the key in
the lock, "just as far as you must." We went in and reached the dressing-room.
Flinging open the door, we saw Fritz von Tarlenheim stretched, fully dressed, on
the sofa.
