One Queen Triumphant CHAPTER I THE NUT-BROWN MAID Queen Elizabeth sat in the garden by the River. Walsingham stooped on her left. A slender and tall girl in white stood before them and sang. Many courtiers were listening. On my right the placid Thames wandered. The shadows of the reeds were like ribands in the clear stream flushed by the sunset. On my left the red walls of Hampton Court had a deepened tint. The garden was shining with multitudinous roses. All was as quiet as if the day was a Sabbath. The girl was a stranger to me. Yet I found her face welcome as if she was a friend. A bright simplicity made her seem out of place in that sumptuous gathering. As she sang The Nut-brown Maid, her dark eyes met mine confidently and her serene voice filled me with peace.
