“Isn’t it my turn now, Johnny Blossom?” The boy stood straight under the taunts his former friend heaped upon him. A little smile was at the corner of his mouth as he answered. Having determined which way to pursue, he pushed his horse into a gallop, and entered the forest as the last rays of the sun trembled on the mountains. The thick foliage of the trees threw a gloom around, which was every moment deepened by the shades of evening. The path was uninterrupted, and the count continued to follow it till all distinction was confounded in the veil of night. Total darkness now made it impossible for him to pursue his way.

They were spread upon the pavement; and the duke, after refreshing himself, delivered up the remains to his people. Having ordered them to watch by turns at the gate, he wrapt his cloak round him, and resigned himself to repose. "Come down quickly," roared Blue Beard, "or I shall come up there."
