Father Claude returned the look with calm level gaze.
"I understand," he said, and, rising, left the castle.
Shortly after he had reached his cottage a loud knock
sounded at the door, which immediately swung open
without waiting the formality of permission. Father
Claude looked up to see the tall figure of Norman of
