The other brother died in a madhouse, where he was cared for; this one, incurable but harmless, went about the highways, followed by the dogs.At the end of the day one of the beasts could do no more. A shiver ran through the limbs of the poor thing, which, as soon as it was released from the shafts, lay down, a stream of blood staining the[Pg 274] pale sand; and in an instant, with a deep sigh, it was stiff in death.
