CHAPTER II. It is necessary to go somewhat back in the course of this narrative, and account to the reader for the disappearance of Violante. It may be remembered that Peschiera, scared by the sudden approach of Lord L'Estrange, had little time for further words to the young Italian, than those which expressed his intention to renew the conference, and press for her decision. But the next day, when he re-entered the garden, secretly and stealthily, as before, Violante did not appear.
