Text Appearing Before Image:
manner, the cocuyos are kept in asmall wicker-basket, or cage, and fed upon flowers and chips of sugar cane.Cocuyos are brought to the market of Vera Cruz by the country people, whotake them in the chapparal. The cocuyo lights your way through the dark aisles, and the mglitingalocheers you with his varied and mimic song. A thousand sights and sounds,that seem to be possessed of some mysterious and narcotic power, lull you intosilence and sleep—a sleep whose dream is love. Clayley and I fdt this, as wo rode silently along. Even the ruder heartsof our companions seemed touched by the same influence. Wc entered the dark forest that fringed the arroyo ; and the stream wft8crossed in silence. Raoul rode in advance, acting as our guide. After a long silence, Clayley suddenly awoke from his reverie, and straight-ened himself up in the saddle. Wiiattimc is it, Captain.* he inquired. Ten—a few minutes prist. answered I, holding my watch under themoonlight. I wonder if the Dons in Led. vet!
Text Appearing After Image:
THE KIFI.K KANGKRS. 131 Not likely, he will be in distress; he expected us an hour agoTrue, he will not sleep till we come ; all right then.How all right then ? ,7or our chnnces of a supper ; a cold pasty, with a glass of Barsac. Whattk. Icyou? ii. do not feel hungry. jTkut I do—as a hawk. I long to sound the Dons larder. Do you not long more to see—? Not to-mght—no—that is until after supper. Everything in its own timeand place; but a man with a hungry stomach, has no stomach for anything^ut eating. I pledge you my word. Ilaller, I would rather at this momentsee that giicd old stewardess Pepe, than the loveliest woman in Mexico, andthats Maiy of the Light. MonstroJiS! That is, nviW after I have supped. Thei: my feelings will doubtless takea turn. Ah ! Clayle)-, you can never love ! •Why so, Captc.iu? With you, loTO is a sentiment, not a passion. You regard the fair bloncloas you would a picture, of a curious ornament. You mean to say, then, that my love is all in my eye V E
