Illustrations taken from The Black Arrow, novel by Robert Louis Stevenson

They cannot better die than for their natural lord

Now, mark me, mine host

They went forward as briskly as they durst on the uneven causeway

In the fork, like a mast-headed seaman, there stood a man in a green tabard, spying far and wide

Putting their mouths to the level of a starry pool, they drank their fill

A little before dawn, a spearman had come staggering to the moat side, pierced by three arrows

We must be in the dungeons

They were now fighting above the knees in the spume

The little cockle dipped into the swell

Holding his head forward like a hunting-dog upon the scent

First came the bride, a sorry sight, as pale as winter, clinging to Sir Daniel’s arm

There were seven or eight assailants

Follow that lad

Be at rest, the Black Arrow flieth nevermore
