For
he
that
does
good
,
having
the
unlimited
power
to
do
evil
,
deserves
praise
not
only
for
the
good
which
he
performs
,
but
for
the
evil
which
he
forbears
.
Fare
thee
well
,
gallant
Outlaw
!
"
Thus
parted
that
fair
fellowship
;
and
He
of
the
Fetterlock
,
mounting
upon
his
strong
war-horse
,
rode
off
through
the
forest
.
KING
JOHN
.
--
I
'll
tell
thee
what
,
my
friend
,
He
is
a
very
serpent
in
my
way
;
And
wheresoe'er
this
foot
of
mine
doth
tread
,
He
lies
before
me
.
--
Dost
thou
understand
me
?
King
John
There
was
brave
feasting
in
the
Castle
of
York
,
to
which
Prince
John
had
invited
those
nobles
,
prelates
,
and
leaders
,
by
whose
assistance
he
hoped
to
carry
through
his
ambitious
projects
upon
his
brother
's
throne
.
Waldemar
Fitzurse
,
his
able
and
politic
agent
,
was
at
secret
work
among
them
,
tempering
all
to
that
pitch
of
courage
which
was
necessary
in
making
an
open
declaration
of
their
purpose
.
But
their
enterprise
was
delayed
by
the
absence
of
more
than
one
main
limb
of
the
confederacy
.
The
stubborn
and
daring
,
though
brutal
courage
of
Front-de-Boeuf
;
the
buoyant
spirits
and
bold
bearing
of
De
Bracy
;
the
sagacity
,
martial
experience
,
and
renowned
valour
of
Brian
de
Bois-Guilbert
,
were
important
to
the
success
of
their
conspiracy
;
and
,
while
cursing
in
secret
their
unnecessary
and
unmeaning
absence
,
neither
John
nor
his
adviser
dared
to
proceed
without
them
.
Isaac
the
Jew
also
seemed
to
have
vanished
,
and
with
him
the
hope
of
certain
sums
of
money
,
making
up
the
subsidy
for
which
Prince
John
had
contracted
with
that
Israelite
and
his
brethren
.
This
deficiency
was
likely
to
prove
perilous
in
an
emergency
so
critical
.
It
was
on
the
morning
after
the
fall
of
Torquilstone
,
that
a
confused
report
began
to
spread
abroad
in
the
city
of
York
,
that
De
Bracy
and
Bois-Guilbert
,
with
their
confederate
Front-de-Boeuf
,
had
been
taken
or
slain
.
Waldemar
brought
the
rumour
to
Prince
John
,
announcing
,
that
he
feared
its
truth
the
more
that
they
had
set
out
with
a
small
attendance
,
for
the
purpose
of
committing
an
assault
on
the
Saxon
Cedric
and
his
attendants
.
At
another
time
the
Prince
would
have
treated
this
deed
of
violence
as
a
good
jest
;
but
now
,
that
it
interfered
with
and
impeded
his
own
plans
,
he
exclaimed
against
the
perpetrators
,
and
spoke
of
the
broken
laws
,
and
the
infringement
of
public
order
and
of
private
property
,
in
a
tone
which
might
have
become
King
Alfred
.
"
The
unprincipled
marauders
,
"
he
said
--
"
were
I
ever
to
become
monarch
of
England
,
I
would
hang
such
transgressors
over
the
drawbridges
of
their
own
castles
.
"
