"Here, madam," answered the deep and melancholy voice of the boatman who sat next her, and who acted as steersman. rx2mslj "Alas! was it you who stretched your body before me, tugrx2mlj " said the Queen, "when the balls were raining around us?" "Believe you," said he, in a low tone, "that Douglas would have resigned to any one the chance of protecting his Queen's life with his own?" The dialogue was here interrupted by a shot or two from rx2mslj one of those small pieces of artillery called falconets, then used in defending castles. The shot was too vague to have any effect, but the broader flash, the deeper sound, ugrx2msj the louder return which was made by the midnight echoes of Bennarty, terrified and imposed silence on itugrx2slj the liberated prisoners.
