But her utmost endeavours were unable to express the anxiety with which the uncertain fate of Julia overwhelmed her. Wild and terrific images arose to her imagination. Fancy drew the scene;—she deepened the shades; and the terrific aspect of the objects she presented was heightened by the obscurity which involved them. “Pull in to shore, Bob,” he said quickly. “We’d better take a look at what’s coming before we tackle it.”.
