"
Well
,
and
what
may
you
have
to
say
against
this
name
?
"
inquired
Albert
;
"
it
is
a
very
pretty
name
,
and
the
adventures
of
the
gentleman
of
that
name
amused
me
very
much
in
my
youth
,
I
must
confess
.
"
--
Franz
said
no
more
.
The
name
of
Sinbad
the
Sailor
,
as
may
well
be
supposed
,
awakened
in
him
a
world
of
recollections
,
as
had
the
name
of
the
Count
of
Monte
Cristo
on
the
previous
evening
.
"
Proceed
!
"
said
he
to
the
host
.
"
Vampa
put
the
two
sequins
haughtily
into
his
pocket
,
and
slowly
returned
by
the
way
he
had
gone
.
As
he
came
within
two
or
three
hundred
paces
of
the
grotto
,
he
thought
he
heard
a
cry
.
He
listened
to
know
whence
this
sound
could
proceed
.
A
moment
afterwards
he
thought
he
heard
his
own
name
pronounced
distinctly
.
The
cry
proceeded
from
the
grotto
.
He
bounded
like
a
chamois
,
cocking
his
carbine
as
he
went
,
and
in
a
moment
reached
the
summit
of
a
hill
opposite
to
that
on
which
he
had
perceived
the
traveller
.
Three
cries
for
help
came
more
distinctly
to
his
ear
.
He
cast
his
eyes
around
him
and
saw
a
man
carrying
off
Teresa
,
as
Nessus
,
the
centaur
,
carried
Dejanira
.
This
man
,
who
was
hastening
towards
the
wood
,
was
already
three-quarters
of
the
way
on
the
road
from
the
grotto
to
the
forest
.
Vampa
measured
the
distance
;
the
man
was
at
least
two
hundred
paces
in
advance
of
him
,
and
there
was
not
a
chance
of
overtaking
him
.

The
young
shepherd
stopped
,
as
if
his
feet
had
been
rooted
to
the
ground
;
then
he
put
the
butt
of
his
carbine
to
his
shoulder
,
took
aim
at
the
ravisher
,
followed
him
for
a
second
in
his
track
,
and
then
fired
.
The
ravisher
stopped
suddenly
,
his
knees
bent
under
him
,
and
he
fell
with
Teresa
in
his
arms
.
The
young
girl
rose
instantly
,
but
the
man
lay
on
the
earth
struggling
in
the
agonies
of
death
.
Vampa
then
rushed
towards
Teresa
;
for
at
ten
paces
from
the
dying
man
her
legs
had
failed
her
,
and
she
had
dropped
on
her
knees
,
so
that
the
young
man
feared
that
the
ball
that
had
brought
down
his
enemy
,
had
also
wounded
his
betrothed
.
Fortunately
,
she
was
unscathed
,
and
it
was
fright
alone
that
had
overcome
Teresa
.
When
Luigi
had
assured
himself
that
she
was
safe
and
unharmed
,
he
turned
towards
the
wounded
man
.
He
had
just
expired
,
with
clinched
hands
,
his
mouth
in
a
spasm
of
agony
,
and
his
hair
on
end
in
the
sweat
of
death
.
His
eyes
remained
open
and
menacing
.
Vampa
approached
the
corpse
,
and
recognized
Cucumetto
.
From
the
day
on
which
the
bandit
had
been
saved
by
the
two
young
peasants
,
he
had
been
enamoured
of
Teresa
,
and
had
sworn
she
should
be
his
.
From
that
time
he
had
watched
them
,
and
profiting
by
the
moment
when
her
lover
had
left
her
alone
,
had
carried
her
off
,
and
believed
he
at
length
had
her
in
his
power
,
when
the
ball
,
directed
by
the
unerring
skill
of
the
young
herdsman
,
had
pierced
his
heart
.
Vampa
gazed
on
him
for
a
moment
without
betraying
the
slightest
emotion
;
while
,
on
the
contrary
,
Teresa
,
shuddering
in
every
limb
,
dared
not
approach
the
slain
ruffian
but
by
degrees
,
and
threw
a
hesitating
glance
at
the
dead
body
over
the
shoulder
of
her
lover
.
Suddenly
Vampa
turned
toward
his
mistress
:
--
'
Ah
,
'
said
he
--
'
good
,
good
!
You
are
dressed
;
it
is
now
my
turn
to
dress
myself
.
'
"
Teresa
was
clothed
from
head
to
foot
in
the
garb
of
the
Count
of
San
--
Felice
's
daughter
.
Vampa
took
Cucumetto
's
body
in
his
arms
and
conveyed
it
to
the
grotto
,
while
in
her
turn
Teresa
remained
outside
.
If
a
second
traveller
had
passed
,
he
would
have
seen
a
strange
thing
--
a
shepherdess
watching
her
flock
,
clad
in
a
cashmere
grown
,
with
ear-rings
and
necklace
of
pearls
,
diamond
pins
,
and
buttons
of
sapphires
,
emeralds
,
and
rubies
.
He
would
,
no
doubt
,
have
believed
that
he
had
returned
to
the
times
of
Florian
,
and
would
have
declared
,
on
reaching
Paris
,
that
he
had
met
an
Alpine
shepherdess
seated
at
the
foot
of
the
Sabine
Hill
.
At
the
end
of
a
quarter
of
an
hour
Vampa
quitted
the
grotto
;
his
costume
was
no
less
elegant
than
that
of
Teresa
.
He
wore
a
vest
of
garnet-colored
velvet
,
with
buttons
of
cut
gold
;
a
silk
waistcoat
covered
with
embroidery
;
a
Roman
scarf
tied
round
his
neck
;
a
cartridge-box
worked
with
gold
,
and
red
and
green
silk
;
sky-blue
velvet
breeches
,
fastened
above
the
knee
with
diamond
buckles
;
garters
of
deerskin
,
worked
with
a
thousand
arabesques
,
and
a
hat
whereon
hung
ribbons
of
all
colors
;
two
watches
hung
from
his
girdle
,
and
a
splendid
poniard
was
in
his
belt
.
Teresa
uttered
a
cry
of
admiration
.
Vampa
in
this
attire
resembled
a
painting
by
Leopold
Robert
,
or
Schnetz
.
He
had
assumed
the
entire
costume
of
Cucumetto
.
The
young
man
saw
the
effect
produced
on
his
betrothed
,
and
a
smile
of
pride
passed
over
his
lips
.
--
'
Now
,
'
he
said
to
Teresa
,
'
are
you
ready
to
share
my
fortune
,
whatever
it
may
be
?
'
--
'
Oh
,
yes
!
'
exclaimed
the
young
girl
enthusiastically
.
--
'
And
follow
me
wherever
I
go
?
'
--
'
To
the
world
's
end
.
'
--
'
Then
take
my
arm
,
and
let
us
on
;
we
have
no
time
to
lose
.
'
--
The
young
girl
did
so
without
questioning
her
lover
as
to
where
he
was
conducting
her
,
for
he
appeared
to
her
at
this
moment
as
handsome
,
proud
,
and
powerful
as
a
god
.
They
went
towards
the
forest
,
and
soon
entered
it
.
We
need
scarcely
say
that
all
the
paths
of
the
mountain
were
known
to
Vampa
;
he
therefore
went
forward
without
a
moment
's
hesitation
,
although
there
was
no
beaten
track
,
but
he
knew
his
path
by
looking
at
the
trees
and
bushes
,
and
thus
they
kept
on
advancing
for
nearly
an
hour
and
a
half
.
At
the
end
of
this
time
they
had
reached
the
thickest
of
the
forest
.

A
torrent
,
whose
bed
was
dry
,
led
into
a
deep
gorge
.
Vampa
took
this
wild
road
,
which
,
enclosed
between
two
ridges
,
and
shadowed
by
the
tufted
umbrage
of
the
pines
,
seemed
,
but
for
the
difficulties
of
its
descent
,
that
path
to
Avernus
of
which
Virgil
speaks
.
Teresa
had
become
alarmed
at
the
wild
and
deserted
look
of
the
plain
around
her
,
and
pressed
closely
against
her
guide
,
not
uttering
a
syllable
;
but
as
she
saw
him
advance
with
even
step
and
composed
countenance
,
she
endeavored
to
repress
her
emotion
.
Suddenly
,
about
ten
paces
from
them
,
a
man
advanced
from
behind
a
tree
and
aimed
at
Vampa
.
--
'
Not
another
step
,
'
he
said
,
'
or
you
are
a
dead
man
.
'
--
'
What
,
then
,
'
said
Vampa
,
raising
his
hand
with
a
gesture
of
disdain
,
while
Teresa
,
no
longer
able
to
restrain
her
alarm
,
clung
closely
to
him
,
'
do
wolves
rend
each
other
?
'
--
'
Who
are
you
?
'
inquired
the
sentinel
.
--
'
I
am
Luigi
Vampa
,
shepherd
of
the
San
--
Felice
farm
.
'
--
'
What
do
you
want
?
'
--
'
I
would
speak
with
your
companions
who
are
in
the
glade
at
Rocca
Bianca
.
'
--
'
Follow
me
,
then
,
'
said
the
sentinel
;
'
or
,
as
you
know
your
way
,
go
first
.
'
--
Vampa
smiled
disdainfully
at
this
precaution
on
the
part
of
the
bandit
,
went
before
Teresa
,
and
continued
to
advance
with
the
same
firm
and
easy
step
as
before
.
At
the
end
of
ten
minutes
the
bandit
made
them
a
sign
to
stop
.
The
two
young
persons
obeyed
.
Then
the
bandit
thrice
imitated
the
cry
of
a
crow
;
a
croak
answered
this
signal
.
--
'
Good
!
'
said
the
sentry
,
'
you
may
now
go
on
.
'
--
Luigi
and
Teresa
again
set
forward
;
as
they
went
on
Teresa
clung
tremblingly
to
her
lover
at
the
sight
of
weapons
and
the
glistening
of
carbines
through
the
trees
.
The
retreat
of
Rocca
Bianca
was
at
the
top
of
a
small
mountain
,
which
no
doubt
in
former
days
had
been
a
volcano
--
an
extinct
volcano
before
the
days
when
Remus
and
Romulus
had
deserted
Alba
to
come
and
found
the
city
of
Rome
.
Teresa
and
Luigi
reached
the
summit
,
and
all
at
once
found
themselves
in
the
presence
of
twenty
bandits
.
'
Here
is
a
young
man
who
seeks
and
wishes
to
speak
to
you
,
'
said
the
sentinel
.
--
'
What
has
he
to
say
?
'
inquired
the
young
man
who
was
in
command
in
the
chief
's
absence
.
--
'
I
wish
to
say
that
I
am
tired
of
a
shepherd
's
life
,
'
was
Vampa
's
reply
.
--
'
Ah
,
I
understand
,
'
said
the
lieutenant
;
'
and
you
seek
admittance
into
our
ranks
?
'
--
'
Welcome
!
'
cried
several
bandits
from
Ferrusino
,
Pampinara
,
and
Anagni
,
who
had
recognized
Luigi
Vampa
.
--
'
Yes
,
but
I
came
to
ask
something
more
than
to
be
your
companion
.
'
--
'
And
what
may
that
be
?
'
inquired
the
bandits
with
astonishment
.
--
'
I
come
to
ask
to
be
your
captain
,
'
said
the
young
man
.
The
bandits
shouted
with
laughter
.
'
And
what
have
you
done
to
aspire
to
this
honor
?
'
demanded
the
lieutenant
.
--
'
I
have
killed
your
chief
,
Cucumetto
,
whose
dress
I
now
wear
;
and
I
set
fire
to
the
villa
San
--
Felice
to
procure
a
wedding-dress
for
my
betrothed
.
'
An
hour
afterwards
Luigi
Vampa
was
chosen
captain
,
vice
Cucumetto
deceased
.
