In which Father Philip, encountering obstinate refusal from the bridge-keeper, is compelled to ford the swelling Tweed by moonlight, only to meet with perilous adventure upon its waters, accompanied by a mysterious and unaccountable maiden. His trials along the river’s edge, marked by strange and haunting song, culminate in a most grievous and humbling mishap, leaving him overcome and senseless upon the shore.
