Uril. (starting and agitated.) Murder! but, then, my father was not there,—

Or was there—but to save?

Adel. I will not speak—

Dark thoughts come thronging with that night’s remembrance.

Twice, twice, with horrible strength the voice shrieked murder!

I flew in madness there.—Amid the night

Darkly I grappled with two shadowy forms,

Beneath whose gripe a struggling warrior heaved,

Then lay a corse.—I had no arms.—
