The Queen Semiramis.
A STORY OF THE MIDDLE AGES.
5 “‘0t all my wives,” said King Ninus to
Semiramis, “it is you I love best. None
have charms and graces like you, and for
you I Would willingly resign them all.”
“ Let the king consider wellwhat he says,”
replied Semiramis. “ What if Iwerc to take
him at his word ‘2”
. “ Do so,” returned the monarch; “whilst
. beloved by you, I am perfectly indifi‘erent
".‘to all others.”
'i‘ So, then, if I asked it,” said Semiramis,
_—yOn would banish all other wives and love
fine alone? I should be alone your consort,
- the partaker of your pOwer, and Queen of
Assyria ‘9” -
“Queen of Assyrial Are you not so al-
ready,” said Ninns, “since you reign by your
beauty over its king ‘9”
“No, no,” answered his lovely mistress;
“I am at present only a slave whom you
love. I reign not; I merely charm. When
I give an order, you are consulted before I
- am obeyed.” ~
“ And to reign, then, you think so great a
pleasure ‘3”
“Yes, to one who has never experienced
t.” . _
“ And do you wish, then, to experience It?
Would you like to reign for a few days in
my place ‘2”
“Take care, 0, King! do not offer too
much.”
“ No, I repeat it,” said the captivated mon-
Iarch. “ Would you like for one whole day,
to be sovereign-mistress of Assyria ? If you
wish I consent to it.”
“ And all which I shall command, then,
shall be executed ?”
“Yes,I will resign to you, for one entire
day, my power and my golden sceptre.”
“ And when shall this be ‘2” '
“ To-morrow, if you like.”
“ I do,” said Semiramis ; and let her head
full upon the shoulder of the king, like a
beautiful woman asking pardon for some ca-
price which has been yielded to. '
The next morning, Semiramis called her
women and commanded them to dress her
magnificently.
On her head she wore a crown of precious
stones, and appeared thus before Ninus.
Ninus, enchanted with her beauty, ordered
all the officers of the palace to assemble in
the state chamber, and his golden sceptre to
be brought from the treasury. He then en-
tered the chamber, leading Semiramis by
the hand. All prostrated themselves before
the aspect of the king, who conducted Sem-
iramis to the throne, and seated her upon it.
Then ordering the whole assembiy to rise,
he announced to the court that they were to
obey, during the whole day, Semiramis as
himself. So saying, he took Up the golden
sceptre, and, placing it in the hands of Sem-
iramis— '
“Queen,” said he, “I commit to you the
emblem of sovereign pOWer; take it, and
command with sovereign authority. All
here are your Slaves, and I myself am noth-
ing more than your servant for the whole of
this day. Whoever shall be remiss in exe-
cuting your orders, let him be punished as if
he had disobed the commands of the king.”
Having thus spoken, the king knelt down
before Semiramis, who gave him, with a
smile, her hand to kiss.
The courtiers then passed in. succession,
each making oath to execute blindly the
orders of Semiramis. When the ceremony
was finished, the king made her his compli.
meats, and asked her how she had managed
to go through it with so grave and majesti-
cal an air.
“Whilst they were promising to obey me,”
said Semiramis, “I was thinking what I
should command each of them to do. I
have but one day of power, and I will em-
ploy it well.” ' ' '
The king laughed at this reply. Semira-
mis appeared much more piquant and
amiable than ever. '
“ Let us see,” said he, “ how you will con-
tinue your part. By what orders will you
begin 1”
“Let the secretary of the king approach
my throne,” said Semiramis, with a loud
voice.
The secretary approached;
placed a little table before him.
“ Write,” said Semiramis: “ ‘ Under pen-
alty of death, the governor of the citadel of
Babylon is ordered to yield up the command
, of the citadel to him who shall bear to him
this order.’ Fold this order, seal it with the
king's seal, and give it to me. Write now :
‘ Under penalty of death, the governor of
the slaves of the palace is ordered to resign
the command of the slaves into the hands of
the person who shall present to him this
order.’ Fold, seal it with the king’s seal,
and deliver to me this decree. Write again :
‘ Under penalty of death, the general of the
two slaves
army encamped under the walls of Babylon. .
is ordered to resign the command of the
army to him who shall be the bearer of this
order.’ Fold, seal, and deliver to me this
decree.”
She took the three orders, thus dictated,
and put them in her bosom. The whole
count was struck with consternation; the
king himself was surprised.
“Listen,” said Semiramis. “ In two
hours hence let all the ofiicers of the state
.' come and offer me presents, as is the custom
on the accession of new provinces, and let a
festival be prepared for this evening. Now
let all depart. Let my faithful servant
, Ninus alone remain. I have to consult with
5 . him upon affairs of state.”
. When all the rest had gone out—
-". “You see,” said Semiramis, “ that I know
" ‘how to play the queen.”
Ninus laughed.
‘1 My beautiful queen,” said he, “ you play
. your part to astonishment. But, if your scr-
‘ ' vant may dare to question you, what would
you do with the orders you have dictated ?”
“I should be no longer queen, were I
_ obliged to give account of my actions
Nevertheless, this was the motive; I have a
vengeance to execute against the three
'ofllcers whom these orders menace.”
“ Vengeance! and wherefore ?"
“ The first, the governor of the citadel, is
one-eyed, and frightens me every time I meet
him; the second, the chief of the slaves, I
hate because he threatens me with rivals;
the third, the general of the army deprives
me too often of your company—you are
constantly in the pump."
This reply, in which caprice and flattery
were mingled, enchanted N inus'.
“Good,” said he, laughing. “Here are
the three first officers of the empire dismissed
for. very sufficient reasons.”
The gentlemen of the court now come to

presmt"? gifts to the queen. Some gave
pyecious es, others of a lower rank
flowers or” fruit, and the slaves having
lléthlrrg ' re, gave nothing buthomace.
3, mono: tho-Io last were three yountr brothers,
who had .,....le from the Caucasus with Sem-
iramis, I ‘ had reamed the caravan in
"’“ich "” women were from an enormous
" '21 they passed before the throne—
" I. it! you.” said she to the three brothers.
“have ; ~"‘ ‘_0 present to make to your
queen ‘2",
“No otli'vi." replied the first, Zopire,
‘ “than my life to defend her.”
“None other,” replied the second, Arta-
ban, than my sabre against her enemies.”
“None other,” replied the third, Assar,”
“than the respect and admiration ihich
her presence inspires.”
“Slaves,” said Semiramis, it is you who
have made nie the most valuable present of
the whole court, and I will not be ungrate-
ful. You who have offered ‘me your sword
against my enemies, take this order, carry
it to the general of the army encamped
under the walls of Babylon, give it to him,
and see what he will do for you. You who
have offered me your'life for my defence,
take this order to the governor of the citadel,
and see what he will do for you; and you
who offer me the respect and admiration
which my presence inspires, take this order,
give it to the commandant of the slaves of
the palace, and see What will be the result.”
Never had Semiramis displayed so much
gaiety, so much folly, and so much grace,
and never was Ninus so captivated. Nor
were her charms lessened in his eyes, when
a slave not having executed promptly an in-
significant order, she commanded his head
to be struck off, which was immediately
done. ”
Without bestowing a thought on this tri-
vial matter, Ninns continued to converse
with Semiramis, till the evening and the fete
arrived. When she entered the saloon
which had begp prepared for the occasion, a
slave brought her a plate, in which was the
head of the decapitated eunuch.
“ ’Tis well,” said she, after having examin-
edit. “Place it on a stake in the courtof
the palace, that all may see it, and be you
there on the spot to proclaim to every one,‘
that the man to whom this head belonged
lived three hours ago, but that, having dis-
obeyed my will, his head was separated
from his body.”
The fete was magnificent; a sumptuous
banquet was prepared in the gardens, and
Semiramis received the homage of all with
a~grace and majesty perfectly regal; she
continually turned to and conversed with
Ninus, rendering him the most distinguished
honor. ‘
“ You are,” said she, “a foreign king,
come to visit me in my palace. I must make
your visit agreeable to you.”
Shortly after the banquet was served,
Semiramis confounded and reversed all
ranks. Niuus was placed at the bottom of
the table. He was the first to laugh at this
caprice; and the court, following his exam-
ple, allowed themselves to be placed, with-
out murmuring, according to the will of the
queen. She seated near herself the three
brothers from the Caucasus.
“Are my orders executed?” she demand-
ed of them.
“ Yes,” replied they. -
The fete was very gay. Aslave having,
by the force of habit, served the king first,
Semiramis had him beaten with rods. His
cries mingled with the laughter of the
guests. Every one was inclined to merri-
ment. It was a comedy, in which each
playedlris part. Towards the end of the
repast, when wine had added to the general
gaiety, Semiramis rose from her elevated
seat, and said:
“My lords, the treasurer of the empire
has read me a list of those who this morn-
ing have brought me their gifts of congratu-
lation on my joyful accession to the throne.
One grandee alone, of all the court, has
failed to bring his gift.”
“ Who is it?” cried Ninus.
punished severely."
“It is yourself, my lord—you who speak.
What have you given to the queen this
morning ?”
Ninus rose, and came with a smiling
countenance to whisper something in the
ear of the queen.’
“The queen is insulted by her servant!”
exclaimed Semiramis.
“ I embrace your knees to obtain my par-
don. Pardon me, beautifulqneen,” said he,
“pardon me.” And he added,-in a lower
tone, “ I Would that this fete were finished.”
“ You wish, then, that I would abdicate ?”
said Semiramis. “ But no—I have still two
hours to reign ;” and at the same time she
withdrew her hand, which the king was
covering with kisses. “I pardon not,” said
she, in a loud voice, “ such an insult on the
part of a slave. Slave, prepare thyself to
die.”
“Silly child that thou art,”'said Ninus,
still on his knees, “yet I will give way to
thy folly; but patience—thy reign will soon
be over.” .
“ You will not, then, be angry,” said she,
in a whisper, “at something I am going to
order at this moment ?"
“ No,” said he.
“ Slaves,” said she aloud, “ seize this man
—this Ninus.”
Ninus, smiling, put himself into the hands
of the slaves.
“Take him out of the saloon, lead him
into the court of the seraglio, prepare every-
thing for his death and await my orders.”
The slaves obeyed, and Ninus followed
them, laughing, into the court of the scrag-
lio. They passed by the head of the diso-
beying eunuch. Then Semiramis placed
herself on a balcony, Ninus had suffered
his hands to be tied. '
“ HaSten to the fortress, Zopirc; you to
the camp, Artaban; Assar, do you secure all
the gates of the palace.”
These orders were given in a whisper,aud
executed immediately.
“Beautiful queen,” said Ninus, laughing,
“this comedy only wants its dcnoucment—
pray let it be a prompt one.”
“ I will," said Semiramis.
lest the eunuch—strike l”
They struck.
Ninus had hardly time to utter a cry when
his head fell upon the pavement; the smile
was still upon his lips.
“ Now I am queen of Assyria l” exclaimed
Semiramis; “and perish cVel'y one, like the
eunuch and like Ninus, who dare disobey
my orders !” -
