The features of one whom I had seen so transiently as Wallace may be imagined to be not easily recognised, especially when those features were tremulous and deathful.

Here, however, the differences were too conspicuous to mislead me.

I beheld one in whom I could recollect none that bore resemblance.

Though ghastly and livid, the traces of intelligence and beauty were undefaced.

The life of Wallace was of more value to a feeble individual; but surely the being that was stretched before me, and who was hastening to his last breath, was precious to thousands.
Was he not one in whose place I would willingly have died?
The offering was too late.
