text_original: " Well, Jew or Pagan, what does it matter which, if he have dealings with the Devil, as they say he has ? " " I should readily believe it," rejoined the hermit, with a sarcastic smile, not quite hidden by his cowl, " if he were not such a coward. But how could he covenant with Satan ? He is as cowardly as he is wicked. When fear takes possession of him, he actually forgets his own identity."
