Well, he said with a decided emphasis--though perhaps he did not intend that I should notice it--he said, "The one who loved me best shall be my heir."

v. Wolters.
Don't be alarmed, Countess. That would be too grotesque.
The Lady.
Perhaps this is his revenge.
v. Wolters.
Revenge? On you? What for?
