We like the music of the loud thunder, and the dance of the blithe lightning." "Avaunt, fiend!" cried Henry. "I will hold no converse with thee. Back to thy native hell!" "You have no power over me, Harry," rejoined the demon, his words mingling with the rolling of the thunder, "for your thoughts are evil, and you are about to do an accursed deed. You cannot dismiss me.
"And was it," said Magdalena, in a low, pathetic voice, "was it for a few jests, a little childish chafing against restraint, that you wrecked the happiness of a poor young girl, blighted her hopes, and broke her heart? Woman fiend! dare you tell me this?" she cried, kindling into passion with a sudden transition. "Avaunt! begone! Leave my sight, you hideous and evil thing!

Avaunt, thou filthy, clammy thing, Of sorry rain the source and spring!
I have misread the great poet if those who had no way partaken in the deed of the death, either found that they were, or feared that they should be, pushed from their stools by the ghost of the slain, or exclaimed to a spectre created by their own fears and their own remorse, "Avaunt! and quit our sight!"
