CHAPTER 27 - Mina Harker's Journal, part 12

In the midst of this I could see that Jonathan on one side of the ring of men, and Quincey on the other, were forcing a way to the cart. It was evident that they were bent on finishing their task before the sun should set. Nothing seemed to stop or even to hinder them. Neither the levelled weapons nor the flashing knives of the gypsies in front, nor the howling of the wolves behind, appeared to even attract their attention. Jonathan's impetuosity, and the manifest singleness of his purpose, seemed to overawe those in front of him. Instinctively they cowered aside and let him pass. In an instant he had jumped upon the cart, and with a strength which seemed incredible, raised the great box, and flung it over the wheel to the ground. In the meantime, Mr. Morris had had to use force to pass through his side of the ring of Szgany. All the time I had been breathlessly watching Jonathan I had, with the tail of my eye, seen him pressing desperately forward, and had seen the knives of the gypsies flash as he won a way through them, and they cut at him. He had parried with his great bowie knife, and at first I thought that he too had come through in safety. But as he sprang beside Jonathan, who had by now jumped from the cart, I could see that with his left hand he was clutching at his side, and that the blood was spurting through his fingers. He did not delay notwithstanding this, for as Jonathan, with desperate energy, attacked one end of the chest, attempting to prize off the lid with his great Kukri knife, he attacked the other frantically with his bowie. Under the efforts of both men the lid began to yield. The nails drew with a screeching sound, and the top of the box was thrown back.

By this time the gypsies, seeing themselves covered by the Winchesters, and at the mercy of Lord Godalming and Dr. Seward, had given in and made no further resistance. The sun was almost down on the mountain tops, and the shadows of the whole group fell upon the snow. I saw the Count lying within the box upon the earth, some of which the rude falling from the cart had scattered over him. He was deathly pale, just like a waxen image, and the red eyes glared with the horrible vindictive look which I knew so well.

As I looked, the eyes saw the sinking sun, and the look of hate in them turned to triumph.

But, on the instant, came the sweep and flash of Jonathan's great knife. I shrieked as I saw it shear through the throat. Whilst at the same moment Mr. Morris's bowie knife plunged into the heart. It was like a miracle, but before our very eyes, and almost in the drawing of a breath, the whole body crumbled into dust and passed from our sight.

I shall be glad as long as I live that even in that moment of final dissolution, there was in the face a look of peace, such as I never could have imagined might have rested there.

The Castle of Dracula now stood out against the red sky, and every stone of its broken battlements was articulated against the light of the setting sun.

The gypsies, taking us as in some way the cause of the extraordinary disappearance of the dead man, turned, without a word, and rode away as if for their lives. Those who were unmounted jumped upon the leiter wagon and shouted to the horsemen not to desert them. The wolves, which had withdrawn to a safe distance, followed in their wake, leaving us alone.

In the meantime, Mr. Morris had had to use force to pass through his side of the ring of Szgany. Entretanto, o Sr. Morris teve de usar a força para passar pelo seu lado do anel de Szgany. All the time I had been breathlessly watching Jonathan I had, with the tail of my eye, seen him pressing desperately forward, and had seen the knives of the gypsies flash as he won a way through them, and they cut at him. |||||||||||||peripherem Sehen||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| ||||||sin aliento|||||||||||||empujando|||||||||||brillar|||||||||||| Durante todo o tempo em que estive a observar Jonathan, sem fôlego, vi-o a avançar desesperadamente e vi as facas dos ciganos a brilharem quando ele abria caminho por entre eles e eles o cortavam.

By this time the gypsies, seeing themselves covered by the Winchesters, and at the mercy of Lord Godalming and Dr. Seward, had given in and made no further resistance. Por esta altura, os ciganos, vendo-se cobertos pelos Winchesters e à mercê de Lord Godalming e do Dr. Seward, tinham-se rendido e não fizeram mais resistência. The sun was almost down on the mountain tops, and the shadows of the whole group fell upon the snow. ||||||||cimas de montañas||||||||||| O sol estava quase a pôr-se no cimo das montanhas e as sombras de todo o grupo caíam sobre a neve.

But, on the instant, came the sweep and flash of Jonathan's great knife. ||||||||destello|||| Mas, no mesmo instante, veio o golpe e o clarão da grande faca de Jonathan. I shrieked as I saw it shear through the throat. ||||||durchschneiden||| |grité|||vi||cortar||| Eu gritei quando o vi a cortar a garganta.
