as his ear grew - weary of the incessant
dash and echo of the waters - - Ana - here
was Erica on the free muntain side,
where all Twas silent except the; Occasion
al rattle of a brook over theitones, and
the hum of a Cloud of snminer flies. The
lovers were alike in' their unhappiness on
ly; and hardly_ -in this,'-so much the moss
wretched of the two was Mica. j •
The sun was hot; and her-path.once
sionally lay ender rocks which reflected
the heat upon the, passenger. She did
not heed this, for the aching of her heart.
Then she had to, pan thipughn4wamp,
whence issued a host-of mosquitoes; to an-.
noy any who intruded upon tbeiraon/ain.
It just: occurred to Erica that Rolf made
her pass this place oil horseback lastyear,
well veiled, - and completelyddendedfrem
these stinging tormentors ; 'but should net
heed them
.now. When, somewhat high
er up, she saw in tho' lofty, distance a sun
ny slope , of long grass undulating in the
wind, like, the surfaCe: of a - lake, tears
sprang into her eves; for Rolf bad said
that when -they came in sightef tbe.*Etv
ing pasture, she would alight and walk
the rest of the way with him: * Xi/stead
of this, and instead of the gay procession
from - the farm; musical -with - tbe!singing
•of boys and girls, - the lowing of the cows
and "the bleating of the kids, all rejoicing
together at going -to - the mountains, here
she 'was alone, carrying . a widowed heart,
and wandering 'with unwilling steps fur
ther, and furtherfrom the spot where she
bad.seen 'golf; . _ '
She dashed the tears from her eyes, and
Jooked behind her, at the entrance Clfla
ravine which would hide from her the fi
ord. and the dwelling she had - lefti Thor
islet lay like the fragment.of aleafy forest
cast into the blue waters; but-Vingel islet , -
could not be seen:- IC-was not toO . ‘far

• but.. it was hidden behind the pretnonto
ries by , which the fiord was emitritcteli-j:
Erica could see What she next reeked for,
.knoVving, as she did, precisely where to
look. She could _see the two gruves be
longing to the household—the twohill.

house; .biu.she turned away sickening et
