THE SPECTRE OF THE AMAZON. 65 I set my staff, an' glowerin' stude : Five fingers void o' flesh, an' blude ; Five rattlin' banes ! an' how they gaed !
Lang yellow spangs, an' ghastly ! I glowered again wi' steadier view : Less quick the pulseless fingers flew, The joints gaed slower yet, an' grew As stiff as iron lastly.
I didna mair than weet my teeth, Pu'd doun my bannet, drew my breath, Syne to mysel' I swuir an aith To shak' hands wi' the ferlie. Sae doun my loof I rax'd fu' bauld, An' seize...d the banes : my bluid ran cauld The fingers roun' my fingers fauld, An' Imd the grip richt sairly !
I swat wi' terror an' affricht, An' tugg'd an' pu'd wi' a' my micht, Till, fra' the sand, an awesome sicht Ease up in roosty armour ! The figure sich'd an' ga'e a grane, But as it let my hand alane 66 THE SPECTRE OF THE AMAZON.
" I doot ye've wauken'd fully sune, " Quo 1 I, " my sprichtly charmer !" It rax'd an* gaunted, rubbed its e'en, Or rather where they aince had been ; At length quo* I, " My waukrife frien', Ye're mine by richt o' captur'.
