Excerpt from The Select Circulating Library, Vol. 1: Containing the Best Popular Literature, Including Memoirs, Biography, Novels, Tales, Travels, Voyages, &C

At ter, Helen again found an opportunity of visiting her mother and the meeting-house, at which latter she indulged an expectation of again seeing the object of her anxiety; nor was she disappointed. His appearance alone spoke more than she could have hoped to learn by any inquiry. He wore a rich and splendid uniform, similar to that of the Austrian service. The sash of his large basket-hilted sword, the waving feathers of his hat, and his embroidered cloak and vest, all reclaimed his rank to be that of a stafi'-oﬂicer; with w ich supposition his age (apparently between thirty and forty) coincided. Helen observed that his right arm reposed uselessly within the folds of a sash; and, on that account, his sword hung, quite contrary to custom, at his right side, - seeming to show that, even in a wounded state, he still knew how to draw and wield it with his left. Arm. All this, while it confirmed Helen's pre-conceived Opinion of his courage, prod q within her, at the same time, a tender feeling of interest respecting his misfortune; and while thus occupied, nay absorbed, she caught the soldier's gaze, whose face was straightway lit up with a beam of joy - his stern features relaxing into a happy smile; and from that moment, Helen felt as if they were no longer unknown to each other.
