Sir Mortimer: A Novel, Vol. 16 (Classic Reprint)
(Bxr Mortimer UT if we return not from our adventure, ende...)
Bxr Mortimer UT if we return not from our adventure, ended Sir Mortimer, if the sea claims us, and upon his sandy floor, amid his Armida gardens, the silversinging mermaid en marvel at that wreckage which was once a tall ship and at those bones which once were animate, if strange islands know our resting-place, sunk for evermore in huge and most unkindly forests, if, being but pawns in a mighty game, we are lost or changed, happy, however, in that the white hand of our Queen hath touched us, giving thereby consecration to our else imworthiness, if we find no gold, nor take one ship of Spain, nor any city treasure-stored, if we suffer a myriad sort of sorrows and at the last we perish miserably .
