John
,
with
tears
in
his
eyes
,
wiped
off
a
drop
of
the
noble
blood
which
had
soiled
the
leaf
,
and
,
after
having
handed
the
despatch
to
Craeke
with
a
last
direction
,
returned
to
Cornelius
,
who
seemed
overcome
by
intense
pain
,
and
near
fainting
"
Now
,
"
said
he
,
"
when
honest
Craeke
sounds
his
coxswain
's
whistle
,
it
will
be
a
signal
of
his
being
clear
of
the
crowd
,
and
of
his
having
reached
the
other
side
of
the
pond
.
And
then
it
will
be
our
turn
to
depart
.
"
Five
minutes
had
not
elapsed
,
before
a
long
and
shrill
whistle
was
heard
through
the
din
and
noise
of
the
square
of
the
Buytenhof
.
John
gratefully
raised
his
eyes
to
heaven
.
"
And
now
,
"
said
he
,
"
let
us
off
,
Cornelius
.
"
Whilst
the
clamour
of
the
crowd
in
the
square
of
Buytenhof
,
which
grew
more
and
more
menacing
against
the
two
brothers
,
determined
John
de
Witt
to
hasten
the
departure
of
his
brother
Cornelius
,
a
deputation
of
burghers
had
gone
to
the
Town-hall
to
demand
the
withdrawal
of
Tilly
's
horse
.
It
was
not
far
from
the
Buytenhof
to
Hoogstraet
(
High
Street
)
;
and
a
stranger
,
who
since
the
beginning
of
this
scene
had
watched
all
its
incidents
with
intense
interest
,
was
seen
to
wend
his
way
with
,
or
rather
in
the
wake
of
,
the
others
towards
the
Town-hall
,
to
hear
as
soon
as
possible
the
current
news
of
the
hour
.
This
stranger
was
a
very
young
man
,
of
scarcely
twenty-two
or
three
,
with
nothing
about
him
that
bespoke
any
great
energy
.
He
evidently
had
his
good
reasons
for
not
making
himself
known
,
as
he
hid
his
face
in
a
handkerchief
of
fine
Frisian
linen
,
with
which
he
incessantly
wiped
his
brow
or
his
burning
lips
.
With
an
eye
keen
as
that
of
a
bird
of
prey
,
--
with
a
long
aquiline
nose
,
a
finely
cut
mouth
,
which
he
generally
kept
open
,
or
rather
which
was
gaping
like
the
edges
of
a
wound
,
--
this
man
would
have
presented
to
Lavater
,
if
Lavater
had
lived
at
that
time
,
a
subject
for
physiognomical
observations
which
at
the
first
blush
would
not
have
been
very
favourable
to
the
person
in
question
.
