Then came sudden alarms ; hurryings to and fro ; trepidations of innumerable fugitives.
Стр. 29 - ... heartbreaking partings, and then — everlasting farewells! and, with a sigh such as the caves of hell sighed when the incestuous mother uttered the abhorred name of Death, the sound was reverberated — everlasting farewells! and again, and yet again reverberated — everlasting farewells!
