We have had a fearful night,
gpt
But your charge? said Martin,

I trust in Heaven she is better.

Now the gods help us,

Amen, said the nurse;

I dare to say so,
gpt
But not of _him_ of whom she should so speak,

You think not? said the nurse,
gpt
Because I know her secret as well as if she had told it me, said Martin.
human
I have seen it from the first.

human
I do, said Martin;
gpt
Remain here whilst I go in, and I will then summon you, said the nurse.
