Strana 184 - Rebecca again looked forth, and almost immediately exclaimed, ' Holy prophets of the law ! Front -de- Bceuf and the Black Knight fight hand to hand on the breach, amid the roar of their followers, who watch the progress of the strife. — Heaven strike with the cause of the oppressed and of the captive !' She then uttered a loud shriek,, and exclaimed, ' He is down ! — he is down !' " ' Who is down ?' cried Ivanhoe ; ' for our dear Lady's sake, tell me which has fallen ?' "

Err not in harsh despair, But tears and patience. One thing more, my child : For thine own sake be constant to the love Thou bearest us; and to the faith that I, Though wrapt in a strange cloud of crime and shame, Lived ever holy and unstained.
