description: Wolfstein involuntarily shuddered.-- Cavigni quaffed the liquor to the dregs --the cup fell from his trembling hand. The chill dew of death sat upon his forehead: in terrific convulsion he fell headlong; and inarticulately uttering I am poisoned sank seemingly lifeless on the earth. Sixty robbers at once rushed forward to raise him; and reclining in their arms with an horrible and harrowing shriek the spark of life fled from his body for ever. A robber skilled in surgery opened a vein; but no blood followed the touch of the lancet. --Wolfstein advanced to the body unappalled by the crime which he had committed.
