But that was most unlikely: not one chance in a hundred.
Betts had not locked up. He fastened up the house at ten o'clock, and
unfastened it again at seven in the morning. She slipped out silently
and unseen. There was a half-moon shining, enough to make a little

Thou didst receive the sacrament to fight
In quarrel of the house of Lancaster.

Didst break that vow; and with thy treacherous blade
Richard III |
