To
stay
by
the
dead
body
could
serve
no
purpose
.
To
bury
it
would
have
been
equally
idle
.
"
Then
I
thought
of
galloping
back
to
the
Fort
,
and
getting
assistance
to
carry
it
to
Casa
del
Corvo
.
"
But
if
I
left
it
in
the
chapparal
,
the
coyotés
might
discover
it
;
and
both
they
and
the
buzzards
would
be
at
it
before
we
could
get
back
.
Already
the
vultures
were
above
--
taking
their
early
flight
.
They
appeared
to
have
espied
it
.
"
Mutilated
as
was
the
young
man
's
form
,
I
could
not
think
of
leaving
it
,
to
be
made
still
more
so
.
I
thought
of
the
tender
eyes
that
must
soon
behold
it
--
in
tears
.
"
The
accused
pauses
in
his
recital
.
No
one
offers
any
observation
--
either
to
interrupt
,
or
hurry
him
on
.
There
is
a
reluctance
to
disturb
the
chain
of
a
narrative
,
all
know
to
be
unfinished
;
and
every
link
of
which
has
been
binding
them
to
a
closer
and
more
earnest
attention
.
Judge
,
jury
,
and
spectators
remain
breathlessly
silent
;
while
their
eyes
--
many
with
mouths
agape
--
are
attentively
turned
upon
the
prisoner
.
Amidst
solemn
stillness
he
is
permitted
to
proceed
.
"
My
next
idea
was
to
cover
the
body
with
the
cloak
--
as
well
as
the
serapé
still
around
the
shoulders
.
By
so
doing
it
would
be
protected
from
both
wolves
and
buzzards
--
at
least
till
we
could
get
back
to
fetch
it
away
.
"
I
had
taken
off
the
cloak
for
this
purpose
;
when
a
different
plan
suggested
itself
--
one
that
appeared
in
every
way
better
.
