Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Wacousta, or the Prophecy, Vol. 2 of 2: A Tale of the Canadas
Supporting his heavy brow, while the other, cast around the restless form of his beloved sister, seemed to offer protection and to impart confidence, even while his lips denied the ac cents of consolation. Seated on an empty hen coop at their head, was Sir Everard Valletort, his back reposing against the bulwarks of the vessel, his arms folded across his chest, and his eyes bent mechanically on the man at the helm, who stood within a few paces of him, -an at titude of absorption, which he, ever and anon, changed to one of anxious and enquiring in terest, whenever the agitation of Clara was manifested in the manner already shown.
