WITCHCRAFT: A TRAGEDY.

LADY DUNGARREN.

Has aught happened to you on the moor?

ANNABELLA.

Have you seen any thing?—He has seen something.

DUNGARREN.

Have you seen any thing, my good Sir?

RUTHERFORD.

Nought, by God's grace, that had any power to hurt me.

DUNGARREN.

But you have seen something which has overcome your mind to an extraordinary degree. Were another man in your case, I should say that superstitious fears had o'ermaster'd him, and played tricks with his imagination.

RUTHERFORD.

What is natural or unnatural, real or imaginary, who shall determine? But I have seen that, which, if I saw it not, the unassisted eyesight can give testimony to nothing.

LADY DUNGARREN and ANNABELLA [both speaking together].

What was it? What was it?

[Rutherford gives no answer].
