and threw herself at his feet; all in tears; with her hair

about her shoulders。



〃This signifies nothing;〃 says Blue Beard; 〃you must

die〃; then; taking hold of her hair with one hand; and

lifting up the sword with the other; he was going to take

off her head。 The poor lady; turning about to him; and

looking at him with dying eyes; desired him to afford her

one little moment to recollect herself。



〃No; no;〃 said he; 〃recommend thyself to God;〃 and

was just ready to strike 。 。 。



At this very instant there was such a loud knocking

at the gate that Blue Beard made a sudden stop。 The

gate was opened; and presently entered two horsemen;

who; drawing their swords; ran directly to Blue Beard。

He knew them to be his wife's brothers; one a dragoon;

the other a musketeer; so that he ran away immediately

to save himself; but the two brothers pursued so

close that they overtook him before he could get to the

steps of the porch; when they ran their swords through

his body and left him dead。 The poor wife was almost

as dead as her husband; and had not strength enough

to rise and welcome her brothers。



Blue Beard had no heirs; and so his wife became

mistress of all his estate。 She made use of one part of it to

marry her sister Anne to a young gentleman who had

loved her a long while; another part to buy captains

commissions for her brothers; and the rest to marry

herself to a very worthy gentleman; who made her forget

the ill time she had passed with Blue Beard。'1'
