He retreated behind the tomb to escape observation, and saw the two men descend, and, taking up their burthen, carry it to the very tomb he had just left. After a short time the two men reappeared, and, passing so close as almost to touch Said, left the burial-place. Said re-entered the tomb, and, having struck a Hght, saw that the load which the two men had deposited was a coffin, which lay overturned. The outside of the coffin was stained with blood, and blood seemed to be oozing from beneath... it. Said stood some time transfixed with horror; his limbs seemed about to fail him, and he turned so pale that he might himself have been taken for some wandering in- habitant of the tomb. What was his horror when the coffiii seemed to move ! He approached it, however, ■ and, urged by curiosity, overcame his fears, and turned it up- wards, removed the Ud, and beheld a beautiful maiden lying in her winding-sheet, the whiteness of which con- trasted strongly with the stains of blood and gore upon it.
