No hope remains but this — let me implore Your speedy flight. " The Cliieftain frowned — " No more ! Perchance 'tis justice dooms me now to bleed, 100 HOOD I\ SCOTLAND. And you would save me by a traitor's deed ! When have I fled my foes or valued life, Or shrunk when Death menaced me in the strife? Perhaps one more in love with life than I Would hail the terms, but now I scorn to fly ! Beside your hate and punishment, too sure, Would leave my safety still too insecm-e. " Proudly he aiiswered —... '• Have you then forgot The loathsome dungeon — once my cruel lot To linger there a sad and joyless time — ^lisfortune's punishment, and not for crime? Your bounty freed me thence, and now 'tis due From gratitude to pay the same for you. And, ah ! my life I cheerfully resign. For many woes — few comforts — ^now are mine! Oh, add one more — 0, hark! The warning bell. One short hour more, it tolls your parting knell. I pray ! — I kneel !" " give me not the pain, " The Chieftain said, " to see you kneel in vain.
