they sang, just as in the bygone times of summer; and now old Mackenzie had got on a bit farther in his musical studies, and could hum with the best of them, He makes thy rosy lips his care, And walks the mazes of thy hair. There was no winter at all in the snug little room, with its crimson fire and closed shutters and songs of happier times.

Meanwhile, Captain de Haldimar and his guide trod the mazes of the forest, with an expedition that proved the latter to be well acquainted with its bearings.
