When I found that ''I were a prisoner'' a sort of wild feeling came over me.

''I rushed up at the stairs'', trying every door and peering out of every window I could find but after a little the conviction of my helplessness overpowered all other feelings.

I rushed up at the stairs, trying every door and peering out of every window I could ''find but'' after a little the conviction of my helplessness overpowered all other feelings.

When I look back after a few hours I think I must have been mad for the time, ''for I behaving much as a rat does in a trap''.

When, however, the conviction had come to me that I was helpless I sat down quietly, ''as quietly as I have never done'' anything in my life, and began to think over what was best to be done.

''He knows well that I imprisoned'', and as he has done it himself, and has doubtless his own motives for it, he would only deceive me if I trusted him fully with the facts.

So far as I can see, my only plan will be ''to keep my knowledge and your fears to myself'', and my eyes open.

I had hardly come to this conclusion when I heard the great door below shut, and knew that the ''Count was returned''.

He did not come at once into the ''library, so'' I went cautiously to my own room and found him making the bed.

This was odd, but only confirmed what I had all along thought, that there are no ''servants around the house''.

''When later I saw him through the chink of the hinges of the door setting the table in the dinning room. I '' was assured of it.

For if he does himself all these menial offices, surely it is proof that there is no one else in teh castle, it must have been the Count himself who was the driver of the coach that ''brought me her.''

This is a terrible thought, for if so, what does it mean that he could control the wolves, as he did, ''by only holding up his hand for silence. How '' was it that all the people at Bistritz and on the coach had some terrible fear for me?

''What meant the giving of the crucifix of the garlic of the wild rose of the mountain ash?''
