Farina was dejected . Willingly would he , for his part , have left the soul of Evil a loose rover for the sake of some brighter horizon to his hope . No twinge of remorse accompanied Gottlieb . The Kaiser had allotted him an encampment and a guard of honour for his household while the foulness raged , and there Gottlieb welcomed back Margarita and Aunt Lisbeth on the noon after his meeting with Farina .

She and the Goshawk came trotting in advance of the Club through the woods of Laach , startling the deer with laughter , and sending the hare with her ears laid back all across country . In vain Dietrich menaced Guy with the terrors of the Club : Aunt Lisbeth begged of Margarita not to leave her with the footmen in vain .
