Excerpt from The Recess, or a Tale of Other Times, Vol. 2
From this temporary death I was at Last recalled by a found that made me wish it had been indeed eternal; the voice, the tremendous voice of Williams. Of what horrors was my foul instantly susceptible! What dreadful images swam before those eyes I hardly durst open! Fearfully at length I cast them around - I saw I had been conveyed into the great room of our Recess; sacred once to piety and innocence, but now, alas! the shelter of rapine, perhaps of murder.
