Excerpt from The Five Nights of St. Albans, Vol. 2 of 2: A Romance of the Sixteenth Century; The First American From the Second London Edition Maurice mingled with all her thoughts. She might as well have attempted to banish thought itself, as to forbid the intrusion of fitz-maurice's figure, his words, his looks, and his untold, but darkly hinted misfortunes. She knew not why; but if her father were in his grave, she felt there would still be another in the world, whose happiness concerned her. And one short hour had done all this! In one little hour, fitz-maurice had divided a heart, which, till then, was her father's only! She blushed to think it was so: but, alas! Her blushes only confirmed, instead of denying that it was so.
