The cell in which our hero was confined
was situated in nearly the top of one of
the round flanking-towers of the Castle,
and the tower at its foot was washed by
the water of the lake, the only part of the
Castle which the water touched.
Two days Brougham has spent in his
lonely cell, with nothing to gaze upon but
the stone walls of his prison, except the
slight view which he can obtain of the
outer world from the small windows which
light his CELL There is no furniture. Light
