He kept his narrow brown eyes heedfully upon me and smiled slightly. "Really! I should have thought otherwise!" I did not trouble myself to reply. The white sails of the 'Dream' were coming nearer and nearer over the smooth width of the sunlit water, and as she approached my heart grew warm with gratitude. Life was again a thing of joy! the world was no longer empty!
"Sir," saith she, "Do off your habergeon heedfully and I will bind up the wound in your arm, for of none may you be made whole save of me only." The King doeth off his habergeon, and the damsel taketh of the blood of the knight's head that still ran all warm, and therewith washeth King Arthur his wound, and thereafter maketh him do on his habergeon again.

It is again desirable that acting heedfully himself, he should seek to compass the victor's destruction when the latter becomes heedless.

The weaker ruler should, under such circumstances, carefully avoid every act that may awaken suspicion.
Now, O curious reader, if thou wilt heedfully observe to what uses Randal Leslie put those letters, what speedy and direct results he drew forth from devices which would seem to an honest simple understanding the most roundabout, wire-drawn wastes of invention, I almost fear that in thine admiration for his cleverness, thou mayest half forget thy contempt for his knavery.
