It
consisted
of
a
rude
wooden
stool
,
and
still
ruder
hutch
or
bed-frame
,
stuffed
with
clean
straw
,
and
accommodated
with
two
or
three
sheepskins
by
way
of
bed-clothes
.
The
Palmer
,
having
extinguished
his
torch
,
threw
himself
,
without
taking
off
any
part
of
his
clothes
,
on
this
rude
couch
,
and
slept
,
or
at
least
retained
his
recumbent
posture
,
till
the
earliest
sunbeams
found
their
way
through
the
little
grated
window
,
which
served
at
once
to
admit
both
air
and
light
to
his
uncomfortable
cell
.
He
then
started
up
,
and
after
repeating
his
matins
,
and
adjusting
his
dress
,
he
left
it
,
and
entered
that
of
Isaac
the
Jew
,
lifting
the
latch
as
gently
as
he
could
.
The
inmate
was
lying
in
troubled
slumber
upon
a
couch
similar
to
that
on
which
the
Palmer
himself
had
passed
the
night
.
Such
parts
of
his
dress
as
the
Jew
had
laid
aside
on
the
preceding
evening
,
were
disposed
carefully
around
his
person
,
as
if
to
prevent
the
hazard
of
their
being
carried
off
during
his
slumbers
.
There
was
a
trouble
on
his
brow
amounting
almost
to
agony
.
His
hands
and
arms
moved
convulsively
,
as
if
struggling
with
the
nightmare
;
and
besides
several
ejaculations
in
Hebrew
,
the
following
were
distinctly
heard
in
the
Norman-English
,
or
mixed
language
of
the
country
:
"
For
the
sake
of
the
God
of
Abraham
,
spare
an
unhappy
old
man
!
I
am
poor
,
I
am
penniless
--
should
your
irons
wrench
my
limbs
asunder
,
I
could
not
gratify
you
!
"
The
Palmer
awaited
not
the
end
of
the
Jew
's
vision
,
but
stirred
him
with
his
pilgrim
's
staff
.
The
touch
probably
associated
,
as
is
usual
,
with
some
of
the
apprehensions
excited
by
his
dream
;
for
the
old
man
started
up
,
his
grey
hair
standing
almost
erect
upon
his
head
,
and
huddling
some
part
of
his
garments
about
him
,
while
he
held
the
detached
pieces
with
the
tenacious
grasp
of
a
falcon
,
he
fixed
upon
the
Palmer
his
keen
black
eyes
,
expressive
of
wild
surprise
and
of
bodily
apprehension
.
"
Fear
nothing
from
me
,
Isaac
,
"
said
the
Palmer
,
"
I
come
as
your
friend
.
"
"
The
God
of
Israel
requite
you
,
"
said
the
Jew
,
greatly
relieved
;
"
I
dreamed
--
But
Father
Abraham
be
praised
,
it
was
but
a
dream
.
"
Then
,
collecting
himself
,
he
added
in
his
usual
tone
,
"
And
what
may
it
be
your
pleasure
to
want
at
so
early
an
hour
with
the
poor
Jew
?
"
"
It
is
to
tell
you
,
"
said
the
Palmer
,
"
that
if
you
leave
not
this
mansion
instantly
,
and
travel
not
with
some
haste
,
your
journey
may
prove
a
dangerous
one
.
"
"
Holy
father
!
"
said
the
Jew
,
"
whom
could
it
interest
to
endanger
so
poor
a
wretch
as
I
am
?
"
"
The
purpose
you
can
best
guess
,
"
said
the
Pilgrim
;
"
but
rely
on
this
,
that
when
the
Templar
crossed
the
hall
yesternight
,
he
spoke
to
his
Mussulman
slaves
in
the
Saracen
language
,
which
I
well
understand
,
and
charged
them
this
morning
to
watch
the
journey
of
the
Jew
,
to
seize
upon
him
when
at
a
convenient
distance
from
the
mansion
,
and
to
conduct
him
to
the
castle
of
Philip
de
Malvoisin
,
or
to
that
of
Reginald
Front-de-Boeuf
.
