The king walked round Fergus as if he were examining a lay figure |
Two of the newcomers fired hastily--and both missed |
Not a blow was struck, horse and rider went down before them |
As the man was placing his supper on the table, Fergus sprang upon him |
Fergus was received by the count, the countess and Thirza with great pleasure |
As Fergus was sallying out, a mounted officer dashed by at a gallop |
The roar of battle was so tremendous that his horse was well-nigh unmanageable |
Before he could extricate himself, Fergus was surrounded by Austrians |
"Why, Karl!" Fergus exclaimed, "where do you spring from--when did you arrive?" |
Lord Sackville stood without speaking, while the surgeon bandaged up his arm |
"Take her, Drummond, you have won your bride fairly and well" |
As Fergus fell from his horse, Karl, who was riding behind him, leapt from his saddle |

Angus and Pottinger watching the fight from the walls of
Herat Frontispiece |
A man walking just in front of him ... was knocked down |
Azim surprises the spy |
He took down the prop, and thrust it suddenly with all
his force through the hole |
There, lying close under a rock, was a young Afghan |
As they passed the corner ... some men sprang on them |
Angus was half-mad with grief and with fury that he was
not in his place among the troops |
Angus shows his goods to the prisoners |
