The king walked round Fergus as if he were examining a lay figure

Two of the newcomers fired hastily--and both missed

Not a blow was struck, horse and rider went down before them

As the man was placing his supper on the table, Fergus sprang upon him

Fergus was received by the count, the countess and Thirza with great pleasure

As Fergus was sallying out, a mounted officer dashed by at a gallop

The roar of battle was so tremendous that his horse was well-nigh unmanageable

Before he could extricate himself, Fergus was surrounded by Austrians

"Why, Karl!" Fergus exclaimed, "where do you spring from--when did you arrive?"

Lord Sackville stood without speaking, while the surgeon bandaged up his arm

"Take her, Drummond, you have won your bride fairly and well"

As Fergus fell from his horse, Karl, who was riding behind him, leapt from his saddle
