called
Gamut
,
after
the
unconscious
Cora
.
"
The
holy
charm
is
beginning
to
be
felt
,
and
soon
shalt
thou
see
this
horrid
tumult
stilled
.
"
Perceiving
that
,
in
his
turn
,
he
was
unheeded
,
the
faithful
David
followed
the
distracted
sister
,
raising
his
voice
again
in
sacred
song
,
and
sweeping
the
air
to
the
measure
,
with
his
long
arm
,
in
diligent
accompaniment
.
In
this
manner
they
traversed
the
plain
,
through
the
flying
,
the
wounded
,
and
the
dead
.
The
fierce
Huron
was
,
at
any
time
,
sufficient
for
himself
and
the
victim
that
he
bore
;
though
Cora
would
have
fallen
,
more
than
once
,
under
the
blows
of
her
savage
enemies
,
but
for
the
extraordinary
being
who
stalked
in
her
rear
,
and
who
now
appeared
to
the
astonished
natives
gifted
with
the
protecting
spirit
of
madness
.
Magua
,
who
knew
how
to
avoid
the
more
pressing
dangers
,
and
also
to
elude
pursuit
,
entered
the
woods
through
a
low
ravine
,
where
he
quickly
found
the
Narragansetts
,
which
the
travellers
had
abandoned
so
shortly
before
,
awaiting
his
appearance
,
in
custody
of
a
savage
as
fierce
and
as
malign
in
his
expression
as
himself
.
Laying
Alice
on
one
of
the
horses
,
he
made
a
sign
to
Cora
to
mount
the
other
.
Notwithstanding
the
horror
excited
by
the
presence
of
her
captor
,
there
was
a
present
relief
in
escaping
from
the
bloody
scene
enacting
on
the
plain
,
to
which
Cora
could
not
be
altogether
insensible
.
She
took
her
seat
,
and
held
forth
her
arms
for
her
sister
,
with
an
air
of
entreaty
and
love
that
even
the
Huron
could
not
deny
.
Placing
Alice
,
then
,
on
the
same
animal
with
Cora
,
he
seized
the
bridle
,
and
commenced
his
route
by
plunging
deeper
into
the
forest
.
David
,
perceiving
that
he
was
left
alone
,
utterly
disregarded
,
as
a
subject
too
worthless
even
to
destroy
,
threw
his
long
limb
across
the
saddle
of
the
beast
they
had
deserted
,
and
made
such
progress
in
the
pursuit
as
the
difficulties
of
the
path
permitted
They
soon
began
to
ascend
,
but
as
the
motion
had
a
tendency
to
revive
the
dormant
faculties
of
her
sister
,
the
attention
of
Cora
was
too
much
divided
between
the
tenderest
solicitude
in
her
behalf
,
and
in
listening
to
the
cries
which
were
still
too
audible
on
the
plain
,
to
note
the
direction
in
which
they
journeyed
.
When
,
however
,
they
gained
the
flattened
surface
of
the
mountain-top
,
and
approached
the
eastern
precipice
,
she
recognized
the
spot
to
which
she
had
once
before
been
led
under
the
more
friendly
auspices
of
the
scout
.
Here
Magua
suffered
them
to
dismount
;
and
,
notwithstanding
their
own
captivity
,
the
curiosity
which
seems
inseparable
from
horror
,
induced
them
to
gaze
at
the
sickening
sight
below
.
The
cruel
work
was
still
unchecked
.
On
every
side
the
captured
were
flying
before
their
relentless
persecutors
,
while
the
armed
columns
of
the
Christian
king
stood
fast
in
an
apathy
which
has
never
been
explained
,
and
which
has
left
an
unmovable
blot
on
the
otherwise
fair
escutcheon
of
their
leader
.
Nor
was
the
sword
of
death
stayed
until
cupidity
got
the
mastery
of
revenge
.
Then
,
indeed
,
the
shrieks
of
the
wounded
and
the
yells
of
their
murderers
grew
less
frequent
,
until
,
finally
,
the
cries
of
horror
were
lost
to
their
ear
,
or
were
drowned
in
the
loud
,
long
,
and
piercing
whoops
of
the
triumphant
savages
.
"
Why
,
anything
:
An
honorable
murderer
,
if
you
will
;
For
naught
I
did
in
hate
,
but
all
in
honor
.
"
