The idea is not feasible; so we must think of something else." "I do not know what to think," replied Alfred; "and the probability is, that if I even did, you would find some objection to its performance." "That is true," answered Harry, laughing, "and I accept the reproach in the spirit it is given.

It will never do for us to be raising objections to every plan offered, for that will not hasten our escape." "Then think of something else, and I will acquiesce, no matter how extravagant it may be," said Alfred.

"I am tired of this cursed prison, and intend to get away by some means or other." "It is all very good to talk about getting away," said Harry.

"For the matter of that, I am as anxious to leave as you are, but in the name of wonder, how are we going to manage it ?" "That is the very thing I desire to consult you about.

We certainly will never escape, unless we make the attempt; but in what manner we are to attempt it, is exactly what I desire to know." "What do you say to bribing one of the sentinels ?" asked Harry.
"Where will we get the means from ?" inquired Alfred.
