She dared not leave her place, lest the least movement
should disturb the sleeper. Sleep was so good for the child.
Beryl slept for nearly an hour. Then she opened her eyes
and looked calmly at her governess. Short as had been her
slumber, its beneficent influence was plain. Delirium had
ceased; there was recognition in the glance of content
which rested on Miss Burton's face.
"No, no, darling; I will not leave you," said Miss Burton,
bending to give her some jelly. "Now take this and then
close your eyes, and try to sleep again, whilst I watch
beside you."
Yet the days which followed were anxious ones. There was
fear lest the child should slip away from life through sheer
exhaustion. She needed the utmost care; and now it was
that Miss Burton's capacity as a nurse was fully tested. But
for her constant watching and unwearying devotion, Beryl's
illness might have ended otherwise than it did. But her
governess was ever at hand to administer medicine or
nourishment just when they were needed, ready, too, with
wise and loving words to soothe the nervous depression
which troubled the child, to whom weakness and weariness
were such strange experiences.
Mr. Hollys, who was sitting at the further side of the bed,
half-hidden by the curtain, leaned forward and looked
anxiously at his child as she said this, but Miss Burton
replied cheerfully, "It is not wicked, dear; but only right that
you should wish to get well. You are stronger, although you
may not feel it yet. You have a better pulse, and there is a
tinge of colour stealing back into your cheeks. Yes, you are
getting on."
"I am so glad," said Beryl with a smile. "I have been trying
to think about the kingdom; but my head is so stupid that I
cannot remember anything properly. I can't even say that
text, 'Suffer little children to come unto Me.'"
"No, dear; that would be a sad thing for most of us," she
replied with a smile; "it means that it is a kingdom of
childlike, true, and loving spirits, and it is only by becoming
like a little child that any one can enter therein."
"Papa here! I did not know it. I wish I had not spoken so.
Will he be angry with me, do you think?"
"I do not think so, dear; no, I am sure he cannot be angry
with you," replied her governess.
Yet all the while he had had no heart religion; he had been
satisfied to worship God coldly and formally, and had felt no
desire to draw near to Him as His Father, and claim the
divine sonship which was his inheritance in Christ.
A flash of light came from the Word. The leaves had opened
at the first chapter of Matthew, and there were the words:
"'Thou shalt call His name Jesus, for He shall save His
people from their sins.'"
Here was his need met, here was a Saviour who could
deliver him from the power of his sins. And as Guy Hollys
bowed his head on his hands in unwonted humility, and
breathed the most earnest prayer he had ever offered, he
was conscious of the presence of One mighty to save, and
felt that a Hand was stretched out to him, the hand of the
strong Son of God, ready to uphold him in the new life he
desired to begin. With the faith of a little child, he yielded
himself utterly to the Saviour, and the angels of God
rejoiced because another son was born into the kingdom.
CHAPTER XXX
A GRAND SURPRISE FOR BERYL
SIX weeks of the New Year had come and gone, and already
there were tokens of the coming of spring. Sickness and
sadness no longer reigned at Egloshayle House. Beryl's fine
constitution had asserted itself and shaken off all ill effects
of the fever which had brought her so low. She had added
some inches to her height during the weeks that she lay in
bed, and now looked inelegantly gaunt and thin, but
declared herself quite well, except when Miss Burton talked
of returning to London, at which suggestion Beryl would
change her tone, and say that she really was not strong
enough yet to do without Miss Burton's care.
Beryl had found a letter awaiting her from Coral, which she
was now eagerly reading. Coral wrote in good spirits. Her
uncle had taken a beautiful house a few miles out of
Melbourne. There was a large garden with lovely flowers
and delicious fruit, very different from anything to be seen
at Egloshayle. Her uncle had given her a pretty bay pony,
and she often rode for many hours. He had also given her a
fine dog, a monkey, one of the cleverest of his tribe, and a
green parrot, which she had already taught to call her
"Coral," and was now trying to persuade to say "Beryl." Her
uncle had engaged a governess for her, who was very kind,
but, of course, not so nice as Miss Burton.
It was clear that Coral was well pleased with her new life,
and she declared that she should be perfectly happy, if only
she had Beryl with her.
Beryl laid down the letter at last with a sigh. "Coral is quite
gone from me," was her thought. "I shall never see her
again. Well, she is happy enough without me. She does not
really want me now she has that pony, and dog, and
monkey, and parrot."
But the dreary feeling which had crept over Beryl could not
at once be shaken off. The remarkable mildness of the day
was making her feel very languid, and with languor came
sadness.
"Oh no," said Beryl, "only I'm tired and in the dumps. How
lovely these snowdrops are! And oh, there are some violets
too! Where did you find them?"
"At the bottom of the garden; I smelt them before I could
see them," said Miss Burton. "So you have had a letter from
Coral; how is she?"
"Oh, very well, and having such nice times," said Beryl.
"Her uncle has given her a pony, a dog, a monkey, and a
parrot. It's good to be Coral now."
Hettie bent over the sofa, put her arms round Beryl and
kissed her more than once. Perhaps she was glad thus to
hide the blushes that had risen in her cheeks.
"Beryl," said her father, "you told me once that you could
never be happy with a stepmother; but now, dear, you will
have to make the experiment. I am going to marry again."
And she threw her arms round Hettie Burton's neck, and
kissed her again and again in an ecstasy of delight.
