"Go to sleep now. We won't chirp a single note. Good-night, and happy dreams!"，"H'm!" said Maurice. "It is devil-worship, pure and simple."During these enquiries a new subject of disturbance broke out in the castle of Mazzini. On the night so fatal to the hopes of Hippolitus and Julia, when the tumult was subsided, and all was still, a light was observed by a servant as he passed by the window of the great stair-case in the way to his chamber, to glimmer through the casement before noticed in the southern buildings.
