Publisher's Synopsis

Chapelle shrugged. To him, the painted lips were as false as the jewels.
Jean-baptiste was silent also. To tread the stage, and by a gesture or the modulation Of a word be knave or king, had been his dream; to hold her in his arms and speak the lines that ranting lover mouthed so badly were unrepented happiness, he thought. Her eyes burned through him, her breast was like white marble in the sunlight; small wonder he did not quell the fire within his heart, since he made no effort.
