I hear from him within a few days. His second squire comes back in a rush because he forgot the gussets for his coat of mail. He brings the will that my husband has scribbled in haste, thinking battle will be joined at once. "Why? Does he think he will die?" I ask cruelly when the man hands it to me for safekeeping.

"He is very low in his spirits," he answers me honestly. "Shall I take a message back to cheer him?"

"No message," I say, turning away. No man who fights under the banner of York against the interests of my son will have a message of hope from me. How can I? My prayer must be that York fails and is defeated. My prayer must be for my husband's defeat. I will pray that he is not killed, but in all honesty, before my God, I can't do more than that.
