CHAPTER XV[*]

[*] The deeds here described were done in Prague on the

twenty-first day of February in the year 1694. Lazarus and

his accomplice Levi Kurtzhandel, or Brevimanus, or "the

short-handed," were betrayed by their own people. Lazarus

hanged himself in prison, and Levi suffered death by the

wheel—repentant, it is said, and himself baptized. A full

account of the trial, written in Latin, was printed, and a

copy of it may be seen in the State Museum in Prague. The

body of Simon Abeles was exhumed and rests in the Teyn

Kirche, in the chapel on the left of the high altar. The

slight extension of certain scenes not fully described in

the Latin volume will be pardoned in a work of fiction.
