Lying in ambush for their enemies one day, Algabert's vassals see the Princess setting out to ride, and capture her. Carried by them to camp, she is brought before Algabert, who forgets the feud, falls under the spell of her beauty, and gives her back her liberty, and later goes to her father to beg for her hand and the cessation of the feud. His overtures are haughtily repulsed, and the breach between the two houses widens. Thereafter Elizabeth, relinquishing all hope of a union between herself and the prince, enters a convent. On the day of her renunciation of the world, Algabert learns of her decision. He makes attempts to reach her, but is unsuccessful. Thrown into despair by this Algabert then provokes the Rodembourgs. He meets them single-handed in the convent cloisters and receives a death stroke. Elizabeth, hearing the clash of steel and the shouts of men, peers through the window of her cell and sees her lover pierced by the swords of her father's retainers. The dead prince is buried by the nuns, and to Sister Elizabeth is given the charge of tending his grave. Written by Cinema News and Property Gazette (September, 1912) See less
