Have
you
the
lion

Pray
you
,
if
it
be

give
it
me
,
for
I
am
slow

study

Midsummer
Night
's
Dream
.
There
was
a
strange
blending
of
the
ridiculous
with
that
which
was
solemn
in
this
scene
.
The
beast
still
continued
its
rolling
,
and
apparently
untiring
movements
,
though
its
ludicrous
attempt
to
imitate
the
melody
of
David
ceased
the
instant
the
latter
abandoned
the
field
.
The
words
of
Gamut
were
,
as
has
been
seen
,
in
his
native
tongue
;
and
to
Duncan
they
seemed
pregnant
with
some
hidden
meaning
,
though
nothing
present
assisted
him
in
discovering
the
object
of
their
illusion
.
A
speedy
end
was
,
however
,
put
to
every
conjecture
on
the
subject
,
by
the
manner
of
the
chief
,
who
advanced
to
the
bedside
of
the
invalid
,
and
beckoned
away
the
whole
group
of
female
attendants
that
had
clustered
there
to
witness
the
skill
of
the
stranger
.
He
was
implicitly
,
though
reluctantly
,
obeyed
;
and
when
the
low
echo
which
rang
along
the
hollow
natural
gallery
from
the
distant
closing
door
had
ceased
,
pointing
towards
his
insensible
daughter
,
he
said
--
"
Now
let
my
brother
show
his
power
.
"
Thus
unequivocally
called
on
to
exercise
the
functions
of
his
assumed
character
,
Heyward
was
apprehensive
that
the
smallest
delay
might
prove
dangerous
.
Endeavoring
then
to
collect
his
ideas
,
he
prepared
to
perform
that
species
of
incantation
,
and
those
uncouth
rites
,
under
which
the
Indian
conjurers
are
accustomed
to
conceal
their
ignorance
and
impotency
.
It
is
more
than
probable
that
,
in
the
disordered
state
of
his
thoughts
,
he
would
soon
have
fallen
into
some
suspicious
,
if
not
fatal
error
,
had
not
his
incipient
attempts
been
interrupted
by
a
fierce
growl
from
the
quadruped
.
Three
several
times
did
he
renew
his
efforts
to
proceed
,
and
as
often
was
he
met
by
the
same
unaccountable
opposition
,
each
interruption
seeming
more
savage
and
threatening
than
the
preceding
.
"
The
cunning
ones
are
jealous
,
"
said
the
Huron
;
"
I
go
.
Brother
,
the
woman
is
the
wife
of
one
of
my
bravest
young
men
;
deal
justly
by
her
.
Peace
!
"
he
added
,
beckoning
to
the
discontented
beast
to
be
quiet
;
"
I
go
.
"
The
chief
was
as
good
as
his
word
,
and
Duncan
now
found
himself
alone
in
that
wild
and
desolate
abode
,
with
the
helpless
invalid
,
and
the
fierce
and
dangerous
brute
.
The
latter
listened
to
the
movements
of
the
Indian
with
that
air
of
sagacity
that
a
bear
is
known
to
possess
,
until
another
echo
announced
that
he
had
also
left
the
cavern
,
when
it
turned
and
came
waddling
up
to
Duncan
,
before
whom
it
seated
itself
,
in
its
natural
attitude
,
erect
like
a
man
.
The
youth
looked
anxiously
about
him
for
some
weapon
,
with
which
he
might
make
a
resistance
against
the
attack
he
now
seriously
expected
.
It
seemed
,
however
,
as
if
the
humor
of
the
animal
had
suddenly
changed
.
Instead
of
continuing
its
discontented
growls
,
or
manifesting
any
further
signs
of
anger
,
the
whole
of
its
shaggy
body
shook
violently
,
as
if
agitated
by
some
strange
internal
convulsion
.
