saying: Let no man salute thee, neither let him kiss thee, for behold, I was you11g and now am I old, yet have I been saluted by no man save only him who has been gathered unto his fathers. Therefore went this saying abroad: He who kissed her who is ruler of the daughters of Hiram was, and is not. And when it came to the ears of the men of the land, they marveled not that it was so. Then came Helen which had been ruler in the house of Bowler, whom a certain one had taken to wife, and abode certain days in the land. And she and her two friends with her made a feast and sent unto the ruler ofthe daughters of the land, saying: Come and sup with us. But her countenance fell, and she went into her chamber heavy and displeased, for she liked not her who had been ruler before her. And she laid her down upon her bed, and turned away her face and would eat no bread.

There was a day when the Howardite, the same is mighty with the brush and with all manner of paint, said to John the Yorkite: Come thou up to the house of Bowler, and to the fourth Hoof of the same, and behold the work of my hands. And while he was yet a-coming, the ruler of the house lifted up her voice and cried unto him, saying: CO1116 down straight- way, and depart out of the house of Bowler. But he hearkened not to her voice, but answered and said : I will not come down, neither will I depart from out the house. And when this was brought to the ears of Ely the Zollarsite, he was exceeding wroth. And he called for the Yorkite, and said: Thou shalt cry for mercy unto the ruler of the daughters of my people, or thou shalt depart out of my land.
