He went straight on through the night, till he got to the shrine which he had erected in memory to his father on the spot where he was assassinated. What he intended to do none can say. But his heart broke, literally, and he fell dead before the shrine. 'Better make sure of him,' said Cyril, who took a dagger that he had with him and pierced the already broken heart once again . . .". Seller Inventory # 33M100699
