Ivanhoe Chapter 30

In which the beleaguered fortress is held in a tense and precarious defence by the fierce Templar and his companion De Bracy, while the dying Baron Front-de-Bœuf is left to confront the terrors of his conscience and the flames that threaten to consume his ancestral home. Amidst spectral voices and bitter remorse, the scene reveals a grim and haunted close to a life marked by violence and obstinate pride.
