You
may
imagine
there
was
something
startling
and
ominous
,
"
said
Haidee
,
shaking
her
head
and
turning
pale
at
the
mere
remembrance
of
the
scene
,
"
in
this
long
file
of
slaves
and
women
only
half-aroused
from
sleep
,
or
at
least
so
they
appeared
to
me
,
who
was
myself
scarcely
awake
.
Here
and
there
on
the
walls
of
the
staircase
,
were
reflected
gigantic
shadows
,
which
trembled
in
the
flickering
light
of
the
pine-torches
till
they
seemed
to
reach
to
the
vaulted
roof
above
.
"
'
Quick
!
'
said
a
voice
at
the
end
of
the
gallery
.
This
voice
made
every
one
bow
before
it
,
resembling
in
its
effect
the
wind
passing
over
a
field
of
wheat
,
by
its
superior
strength
forcing
every
ear
to
yield
obeisance
.
As
for
me
,
it
made
me
tremble
.
This
voice
was
that
of
my
father
.
He
came
last
,
clothed
in
his
splendid
robes
and
holding
in
his
hand
the
carbine
which
your
emperor
presented
him
.
He
was
leaning
on
the
shoulder
of
his
favorite
Selim
,
and
he
drove
us
all
before
him
,
as
a
shepherd
would
his
straggling
flock
.
My
father
,
"
said
Haidee
,
raising
her
head
,
"
was
that
illustrious
man
known
in
Europe
under
the
name
of
Ali
Tepelini
,
pasha
of
Yanina
,
and
before
whom
Turkey
trembled
.

Albert
,
without
knowing
why
,
started
on
hearing
these
words
pronounced
with
such
a
haughty
and
dignified
accent
;
it
appeared
to
him
as
if
there
was
something
supernaturally
gloomy
and
terrible
in
the
expression
which
gleamed
from
the
brilliant
eyes
of
Haidee
at
this
moment
;
she
appeared
like
a
Pythoness
evoking
a
spectre
,
as
she
recalled
to
his
mind
the
remembrance
of
the
fearful
death
of
this
man
,
to
the
news
of
which
all
Europe
had
listened
with
horror
.
"
Soon
,
"
said
Haidee
,
"
we
halted
on
our
march
,
and
found
ourselves
on
the
borders
of
a
lake
.
My
mother
pressed
me
to
her
throbbing
heart
,
and
at
the
distance
of
a
few
paces
I
saw
my
father
,
who
was
glancing
anxiously
around
.
Four
marble
steps
led
down
to
the
water
's
edge
,
and
below
them
was
a
boat
floating
on
the
tide
.
"
From
where
we
stood
I
could
see
in
the
middle
of
the
lake
a
large
blank
mass
;
it
was
the
kiosk
to
which
we
were
going
.
This
kiosk
appeared
to
me
to
be
at
a
considerable
distance
,
perhaps
on
account
of
the
darkness
of
the
night
,
which
prevented
any
object
from
being
more
than
partially
discerned
.
We
stepped
into
the
boat
.
I
remember
well
that
the
oars
made
no
noise
whatever
in
striking
the
water
,
and
when
I
leaned
over
to
ascertain
the
cause
I
saw
that
they
were
muffled
with
the
sashes
of
our
Palikares
.
14
Besides
the
rowers
,
the
boat
contained
only
the
women
,
my
father
,
mother
,
Selim
,
and
myself
.
The
Palikares
had
remained
on
the
shore
of
the
lake
,
ready
to
cover
our
retreat
;
they
were
kneeling
on
the
lowest
of
the
marble
steps
,
and
in
that
manner
intended
making
a
rampart
of
the
three
others
,
in
case
of
pursuit
.
Our
bark
flew
before
the
wind
.
'
Why
does
the
boat
go
so
fast
?
'
asked
I
of
my
mother
.

'
Silence
,
child
!
Hush
,
we
are
flying
!
'
I
did
not
understand
.
Why
should
my
father
fly
?
--
he
,
the
all-powerful
--
he
,
before
whom
others
were
accustomed
to
fly
--
he
,
who
had
taken
for
his
device
,
'
They
hate
me
;
then
they
fear
me
!
'
It
was
,
indeed
,
a
flight
which
my
father
was
trying
to
effect
.
I
have
been
told
since
that
the
garrison
of
the
castle
of
Yanina
,
fatigued
with
long
service
"
--
Here
Haidee
cast
a
significant
glance
at
Monte
Cristo
,
whose
eyes
had
been
riveted
on
her
countenance
during
the
whole
course
of
her
narrative
.
The
young
girl
then
continued
,
speaking
slowly
,
like
a
person
who
is
either
inventing
or
suppressing
some
feature
of
the
history
which
he
is
relating
.
"
You
were
saying
,
signora
,
"
said
Albert
,
who
was
paying
the
most
implicit
attention
to
the
recital
,
"
that
the
garrison
of
Yanina
,
fatigued
with
long
service
