A gruff murmur from the others showed that they were of one mind with the prince.  The light of the torches from the walls beat upon the line of stern faces at the high table.  They had sat like flint, and the Italian shrank from their inexorable eyes.  He looked swiftly round, but armed men choked every entrance.  The shadow of death had fallen athwart his soul. ~  Sir Nigel by  Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
