A Knight of the White Cross

CHAPTER IV A PROFESSED KNIGHT
11/27

We ourselves are prepared at any moment to sacrifice our lives for the good of the Order and for the great cause, and it would be wrong, nay, sinful, not to use the means that have been placed ready to our hand.

Now, Sir Gervaise, I wish you a pleasant voyage.

You will find the life somewhat hard, after your three years' residence at the palace, but this I know you will not mind.

I have specially commended you to Ricord as one in whom I am personally interested, and from whom I hope great things in the future.
Be brave; be resolute.

From what you have said I need not say--be merciful.
