They
had
one
night
in
which
to
prepare
for
death
.
Overcome
as
they
were
with
horror
and
fatigue
,
they
took
their
last
meal
together
.
"
We
shall
need
all
our
strength
,
"
Glenarvan
had
said
,
"
to
look
death
in
the
face
.
We
must
show
these
savages
how
Europeans
can
die
.
"
The
meal
ended
.
Lady
Helena
repeated
the
evening
prayer
aloud
,
her
companions
,
bare-headed
,
repeated
it
after
her
.
Who
does
not
turn
his
thoughts
toward
God
in
the
hour
of
death
?
This
done
,
the
prisoners
embraced
each
other
.
Mary
Grant
and
Helena
,
in
a
corner
of
the
hut
,
lay
down
on
a
mat
.
Sleep
,
which
keeps
all
sorrow
in
abeyance
,
soon
weighed
down
their
eyelids
;
they
slept
in
each
other
's
arms
,
overcome
by
exhaustion
and
prolonged
watching
.
Then
Glenarvan
,
taking
his
friends
aside
,
said
:
"
My
dear
friends
,
our
lives
and
the
lives
of
these
poor
women
are
in
God
's
hands
.
If
it
is
decreed
that
we
die
to-morrow
,
let
us
die
bravely
,
like
Christian
men
,
ready
to
appear
without
terror
before
the
Supreme
Judge
.
God
,
who
reads
our
hearts
,
knows
that
we
had
a
noble
end
in
view
.
If
death
awaits
us
instead
of
success
,
it
is
by
His
will
.
Stern
as
the
decree
may
seem
,
I
will
not
repine
.
But
death
here
,
means
not
death
only
,
it
means
torture
,
insult
,
perhaps
,
and
here
are
two
ladies
--
"
Glenarvan
's
voice
,
firm
till
now
,
faltered
.
He
was
silent
a
moment
,
and
having
overcome
his
emotion
,
he
said
,
addressing
the
young
captain
:
"
John
,
you
have
promised
Mary
what
I
promised
Lady
Helena
.
What
is
your
plan
?
"
"
I
believe
,
"
said
John
,
"
that
in
the
sight
of
God
I
have
a
right
to
fulfill
that
promise
.
"
"
Yes
,
John
;
but
we
are
unarmed
.
"
"
No
!
"
replied
John
,
showing
him
a
dagger
.
"
I
snatched
it
from
Kara-Tete
when
he
fell
at
your
feet
.
My
Lord
,
whichever
of
us
survives
the
other
will
fulfill
the
wish
of
Lady
Helena
and
Mary
Grant
.
"
