The tumult had continued a considerable time, which the prisoners had passed in a state of horrible suspence, when they heard the uproar advancing towards the vault, and soon after a number of voices shouted down the avenue.

There was once a widow who had two daughters. The elder was so like her mother in temper and face, that to have seen the one was to have seen the other.

“Will you? That would be great!” Bob waited until the storm had passed and then asked calmly: "I see a great cloud of dust moving this way," said Sister Anne. He revolved the means which might effect his purpose—he saw but one—this was the death of the marchioness..
