KNIGHT OF WHITE ROSE.
saints that 1 have seen so fair a maid with
so true a spirit. Now therefore do I swear
here in the presence of this company to be
faithful to her alone through all my life.
1 will serve her and love her and lay down
if need be my life in her defense. And if
so be she will not look upon me
will I call no woman wife while I live.”
Then he commanded his knights to kiss
her garment and swear to serve her faith-
fully and they did so each one kneeling
at her feet.
At this was Dona Celestina greatly
moved and the tears stood tn her eyes.
She essayed to speak but could not so she
gave Don Enrique her hand to kiss.
Then did the don command his men to
bear the body of her father and they all
rode toward Zaragoza nor did they pause
until he had delivered the maiden and her
father's treasure and her father’s body to
her mother.
When Dona Helena knew what had be-
fallen her daughter she fell on her knees
and besought the don to keep the treasure
but he would not. He raised her up and
bowed himself before Dona Celestina and
rode away
Then were his knights little pleased that
he would not keep lawful booty and re-
ward them. So be gave them from his
own wealth to each man 100 marks in gold.
Nevertheless was my don fearful lest his
men should return and take the booty
again of Dona Helena. So he came and
placed himself opposite the house and re-
mained there all night keeping guard and
when she passed by the window he knelt
and crossed himself for he felt that she
was holy.
Now was Dona Celestina the most beau
riful maid in all Zaragoza and sought
after by many suitors but to all she turned
a deaf ear for she was minded to enter the
church being wholly given to good deeds
and especially blessed of the virgin. So
when it was known that Don Enrique the
lawless was her lover also great laughter
was raised in the town that he should try
to win the holy Dona Celestina.
Nevertheless did the don press his suit
most gallantly. All the trophies which he
won did he lay at her feet but she would
none of them for herself for she held his
course as sinful. So she gave it all to the
poor.
But naught could dismay my don. He
wooed her ardently with no cause for hope
for she turned tier face from him. She
went her way among the sick and the poor
doing much good so that the people bless-
ed her in the public streets as she passed
them by.
Her jourueyiugs were often perilous for
the Moors were in the country nor did
they hesitate to kill or carry off any whom
they met nor were any such heard of after.
Don Enrique gave her a jeweled
dagger whereby she might defend herself.
Also he or some of his knights kept al-
ways near to aid her if so lie she should
need them. Even though she did not al-
ways see them did she know they were
near and her heart was touched
After a long time did the don grow im-
patient with his waiting for she showed
him no favor and he sent a messenger to
her to know her heart.
Then did the dona bid him tarry while
she went above to her chamber. She spent
the time from the hour of tierce one day to
hour of tierce the next in meditation
and prayer and the knight tarried with-
out waiting her gracious pleasure. Then
she came unto him and said: "The Dona
Celestina sendeth farewell to thy lord for
she is minded to join the sisterhood. Nor
would she in any wise dare to call herself
wife to the Don Enrique de Lamarca.
Nevertheless will she from her cloister con-
tinuously pray for him.”
When the don heard this his heart failed
him. for he loved her mightily. Then did
he wrestle greatly with his own spirit as to
whether or not be should forsake his
course and enlist under the banner of the
king who sorely needed his aid against the
Moors. But thersoul of my don loved free-
dom and outlawry more than righteous
war.
Nevertheless did his love for Dona Celes-
tina prevail. Therefore did he call his
knights together and tell them of his pur-
pose whereat they all lamented sore and
sought to turn him. But the don rose up
and unbuckled his sword and dashed it to
the floor and set bis heel upon it and said:
“Thus do I set my heel upon my own
life of sin and set f rth to do valiant ser-
vice for the king for the sake of the Dona
Celestina!”
And at the sound of her name did the
knights kneel for so had Don Enrique com-
manded.
Then did they yield the point only be-
seeching him to make one more adventure
with them as his last. Long did the don
resist their appeal but his soul longed to
yield for dearly did he love his wild life
and sore was his grief at leaving it. But
at length he promised. Reordered a great
feast to be spread in his castle when they
should return and the preparations were
made as if for a king.
Then did the don take with him a knight
named Estevaulllo Guadaua and come unto
Dona Celestina. He gave unto his knight’s
hand a single white rose and hade him go
unto the dona and tell her of his vow and
say unto her if so be she would renounce
her intention of entering the church and
reward his love and faithfulness to come
on the morrow to her balcony and wear in
her bosom the white rose and if she would
not to appear and let the rose fall unto
time for be would bo waiting. Then too
did he caution her against going through
the streets for the Moors were waxing
bolder and strange were the stories afloat
concerning their daring. Then he blessed
Don Estevanillo and sent him in unto her.
Now this knight being false and vain
thought to trick Don Eurique and win
Dona Celestina for himself for he too
was of noble birth. Nevertheless be de-
livered the message to her even as he had
been told and gave her the white rose.
Then did he prove false to his lord. He
told her of this adventure which they had
planned and of the banquet prepared
which was fit for a king that they might
make merfy over their spoils. Nor did he
say it was the last but made it appear as
if the don would thus break his vow.
Then did the dona’s eyes grow sorrowful
and a doubt grew in her mind against Don

YOUNG MEN AND BOYS' CLOTHING
SPECIAL SALE!
IV 6 are about to inaugurate a Special Sale in these
lines and well may the public ask:—“Why reductions so early
in the season? Are the goods not bought correctly or are
they not the leading styles?” We can frankly assert that
they are both and you will say so when you examine our
stock.
The reason why we will sell these lines at reduced figures
is simply that we are too much crowded on the one side of
our house there is too much goods to handle in so small a
space some have te be sacrificed to make room for others
we have selected Clothing because they are the most bulky.
