Schiller s Maid of Orleans A moment of peril is often also a moment of open-hearted kindness and affection.

Her voice faltered and her hand trembled and it was only the cold question of Ivanhoe Is it you gentle maiden which recalled her to herself and reminded her the sensations which she felt were not and could not be mutual. A sigh escaped but it was scarce audible and the questions which she asked the knight concerning his state of health were put in the tone of calm friendship.
