Godwin stood before them smiling, and kissed them both upon the
cheek, calling them "Beloved brother and sister."
"And you, Godwin?" stammered Rosamund.
"I, Rosamund, have also found my bride, and she is named the
Church of Christ."
"Do you, then, return to England, brother?" asked Wulf.
"Nay," Godwin answered, in a fierce whisper and with flashing
eyes, "the Cross is down, but not forever. That Cross has Richard
of England and many another servant beyond the seas, and they
will come at the Church's call. Here, brother, before all is
done, we may meet again in war. Till then, farewell."
So spoke Godwin and then was gone.
