It was the same scroll, or a cunning copy, for there lay two great hasty blots upon it in one corner, and its signature ran up the page like a ladder against a wall. "Read here, and here," said he, "and understand how this cursed man would incite milder men to shed Duke William's blood!" Of the coming of the Sarrasins in force, and of the building of their château.
