[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]
