 Matilda, who by Hippolita’s order had retired1 to her apartment, was ill-disposed to take any rest.  The shocking fate of her brother had deeply affected2 her.  She was surprised at not seeing Isabella; but the strange words which had fallen from her father, and his obscure menace to the Princess his wife, accompanied by the most furious behaviour, had filled her gentle mind with terror and alarm.  She waited anxiously for the return of Bianca, a young damsel that attended her, whom she had sent to learn what was become of Isabella.  Bianca soon appeared, and informed her mistress of what she had gathered from the servants, that Isabella was nowhere to be found.  She related the adventure of the young peasant who had been discovered in the vault3, though with many simple additions from the incoherent accounts of the domestics; and she dwelt principally on the gigantic leg and foot which had been seen in the gallery-chamber4.  This last circumstance had terrified Bianca so much, that she was rejoiced when Matilda told her that she would not go to rest, but would watch till the Princess should rise.
 
The young Princess wearied herself in conjectures5 on the flight of Isabella, and on the threats of Manfred to her mother.  “But what business could he have so urgent with the chaplain?” said Matilda, “Does he intend to have my brother’s body interred6 privately7 in the chapel8?”
 
“Oh, Madam!” said Bianca, “now I guess.  As you are become his heiress, he is impatient to have you married: he has always been raving9 for more sons; I warrant he is now impatient for grandsons.  As sure as I live, Madam, I shall see you a bride at last.—Good madam, you won’t cast off your faithful Bianca: you won’t put Donna Rosara over me now you are a great Princess.”
