` Bless my soul ! ' cried the doctor , and by this time of course the excitement among the spectators was tremendous , fairies fainting right and left . -LSB- Illustration : They warned her -RSB- Everybody stared breathlessly at the Duke , who was very much startled , and looked as if he would like to run away . ` Good gracious me ! ' the doctor was heard muttering , and now the heart was evidently on fire , for he had to jerk his fingers away from it and put them in his mouth . The suspense was awful . Then in a loud voice , and bowing low , ` My Lord Duke , ' said the physician elatedly , ' I have the honour to inform your excellency that your grace is in love . ' You ca n't conceive the effect of it . Brownie held out her arms to the Duke and he flung himself into them , the Queen leapt into the arms of the Lord Chamberlain , and the ladies of the court leapt into the arms of her gentlemen , for it is etiquette to follow her example in everything . Thus in a single moment about fifty marriages took place , for if you leap into each other 's arms it is a fairy wedding . Of course a clergyman has to be present . How the crowd cheered and leapt ! Trumpets brayed , the moon came out , and immediately a thousand couples seized hold of its rays as if they were ribbons in a May dance and waltzed in wild abandon round the fairy ring . Most gladsome sight of all , the Cupids plucked the hated fools ' caps from their heads and cast them high in the air . And then Maimie went and spoiled everything . She could n't help it . She was crazy with delight over her little friend 's good fortune , so she took several steps forward and cried in an ecstasy , ' O Brownie , how splendid ! ' Everybody stood still , the music ceased , the lights went out , and all in the time you may take to say , ` Oh dear ! ' An awful sense of her peril came upon Maimie ; too late she remembered that she was a lost child in a place where no human must be between the locking and the opening of the gates ; she heard the murmur of an angry multitude ; she saw a thousand swords flashing for her blood , and she uttered a cry of terror and fled . How she ran !
and all the XXXXX her eyes were starting out of her head .
