"
Poor
Miriam
!
"
murmured
the
stranger
;
"
thy
foal
was
foreordained
to
become
a
prey
to
ravenous
beasts
!
"
Then
,
suddenly
lifting
up
his
voice
,
amid
the
eternal
din
of
the
waters
,
he
sang
aloud
--
"
First
born
of
Egypt
,
smite
did
He
,
Of
mankind
,
and
of
beast
also
;
O
,
Egypt
!
wonders
sent
'
midst
thee
,
On
Pharaoh
and
his
servants
too
!
"
"
The
death
of
the
colt
sits
heavy
on
the
heart
of
its
owner
,
"
said
the
scout
;
"
but
it
's
a
good
sign
to
see
a
man
account
upon
his
dumb
friends
.
He
has
the
religion
of
the
matter
,
in
believing
what
is
to
happen
will
happen
;
and
with
such
a
consolation
,
it
wo
n't
be
long
afore
he
submits
to
the
rationality
of
killing
a
four-footed
beast
,
to
save
the
lives
of
human
men
.
It
may
be
as
you
say
,
"
he
continued
,
reverting
to
the
purport
of
Heyward
's
last
remark
;
"
and
the
greater
the
reason
why
we
should
cut
our
steaks
,
and
let
the
carcase
drive
down
the
stream
,
or
we
shall
have
the
pack
howling
along
the
cliffs
,
begrudging
every
mouthful
we
swallow
.
Besides
,
though
the
Delaware
tongue
is
the
same
as
a
book
to
the
Iroquois
,
the
cunning
varlets
are
quick
enough
at
understanding
the
reason
of
a
wolf
's
howl
The
scout
,
whilst
making
his
remarks
,
was
busied
in
collecting
certain
necessary
implements
;
as
he
concluded
,
he
moved
silently
by
the
group
of
travellers
,
accompanied
by
the
Mohicans
,
who
seemed
to
comprehend
his
intentions
with
instinctive
readiness
,
when
the
whole
three
disappeared
in
succession
,
seeming
to
vanish
against
the
dark
face
of
a
perpendicular
rock
,
that
rose
to
the
height
of
a
few
yards
within
as
many
feet
of
the
water
's
edge
.
"
Those
strains
that
once
did
sweet
in
Zion
glide
;
He
wales
a
portion
with
judicious
care
;
And
'
Let
us
worship
God
,
'
he
says
,
with
solemn
air
.
