I fought like a lion; see, my arm is still bound up; but I was not
quite his match alone, for I had let blood the day before, and my
comrades were taken with a panic, and so left me in the lurch.
And now you have it all.
IV:1:83 THE UNKNOWN.
And Oran?
IV:1:84 1ST BRAVO.
He fled at once.
IV:1:85 THE UNKNOWN.
Come, come, Oran did not fly.
IV:1:86 1ST BRAVO.
Very true. We left him alone with the Count.
And now you have it all.
IV:1:87 THE UNKNOWN.
Had he slain him, the body would have been found.
IV:1:88 1ST BRAVO.
Very true. That's the difference between us professional
performers, and you mere amateurs; we never leave the bodies.
IV:1:89 THE UNKNOWN.
And you can tell me nothing of him?
IV:1:90 1ST BRAVO.
No, but I engage to finish the Count, any night you like now,
for I have found out his lure.
IV:1:91 THE UNKNOWN.
How's that?
IV:1:92 1ST BRAVO.
Every evening, about an hour after sunset, he enters by a private
way the citadel.
IV:1:93 THE UNKNOWN.
Hah! what more?
IV:1:94 1ST BRAVO.
He is stagged; there is a game playing, but what I know not.
IV:1:95 THE UNKNOWN.
Your name is Guzman Jaca?
IV:1:96 1ST BRAVO.
The same.
IV:1:97 THE UNKNOWN.
Honest fellow! there's gold for you.
