The brethren are Wulf and Goodwin
DARCY, wellborn sons Of Briton. They
love their cousin Rosamund Darcy. the
daughter Of Sir Edmund D Arcy and niece
on her mothers side Of Saladin, the OPP
poser Of the crusaders. Saladin is bent
on having his niece brought to his own
great possessions" In order that a dream
he has dreamed three times may be full
filed. His emissaries and Wulf and God
win have an encounter in the very first
chapter of the story. The brethren van
quish the men Of the east and Rosamund
makes a thrilling escape to the house Of
her father. But the fight reveals to each
of the brothers that he loves the fair and
queenly Rosamund. Yet the brothers love
each other, and they are unwilling to let
anything break the tie that has bound
them together since their birth, for they
are twins, so Wulf proposes that both
speak to her, Goodwin first asking her hand
in marriage, but requesting her not to give
her answer at once, then W,ilf before she
has time to answer Goodwin. The plan is
carried out. But Rosamund defers an
swering for two years. little dreaming thai
the answer would be given after many
strange adventures and in a far country
Rosamund is carried away by Saladin's
men at last, and then Wulf and Goodwin
| set out in search OF her. Their search
takes them first to the city Of Al-je-bal
| the capital of the Lord of Death" rule,
of the assassins, who makes war upoI
his enemies, not with an armed soldiery
but with enissaries who carry poisons ant
i daggers. This citadel and the Incident
/ that occur there are highly Haggardesqu,
