BOOK VI: THE PURSUIT IN THE FOREST
24/152

My own yacht is here, and will sweep the coast from end to end.

It is the fastest boat afloat, and armed against a squadron.
Here will all signals come.

In an hour where we stand will be a signal bureau, where trained eyes will watch night and day till the lost one has been found and the outrage has been avenged.

The robbers are even now within a ring of steel, and cannot escape." The young priest, all on fire, sprang on the battlements and shouted to the crowd, which was massing round the Castle in the gardens far below.
The forest was giving up its units till they seemed like the nucleus of an army.

The men cheered lustily, till the sound swung high up to us like the roaring of a winter sea.
