Four of the Servians were killed; but the Turks being at length overpowered, Konda and the two remaining Servians broke open the gate with an axe, on which a corps of Servians rushed in. The Turks being attracted to this point, Kara Georg passed the ditch at another place with a large force.

Dimly to my fading senses came the triumphant thought, the realization that Argo outside, upon whom Tarrano depended to seize Georg had failed. Action had come to Tarrano. He snapped off his weapon. Released from it, Wolfgar and I wilted to the floor lay inert. The returning blood in my limbs made them prick as with a million needles. To my sight and hearing, the room was whirling and roaring.

We had ill-formed souls enough, without spoiling those that were generous and good; so that, if we hold on, there will scarcely remain any with whom to intrust the health of this State of ours, in case fortune chance to restore it: "Hunc saltem everso juvenem succurrere seclo, Ne prohibete." Virgil, Georg., i. 500.

Scarcely had the door of his room closed behind him, when little Bessie ran up to Maria, threw her arms around her and asked: "Mother, isn't Junker Georg the tall captain with the blue feather, who ran down-stairs so fast to meet you?" "Yes, child." "And he's coming to dinner to-morrow! He's coming, Adrian."

No voice had ever suited hers so well; she had never heard language so poetical from any other lips, never had eyes that sparkled like the young Thuringian noble's looked into hers.
