['Lawyer of the defendant Fetyukovich in response to the public procurator Kirillovich\'s speech:\n\n"It was precisely this consideration that formed the grounds for the prosecutor\'s assumption that the money was hidden in some cleft or crevice in the village of Mokroye. Why, might it not indeed be in the dungeons of the castle of Udolpho, gentlemen? Oh, is it not a fantastic, a roman-esque assumption? [etc.] And with such romans are we prepared to bring ruin upon a human life!" (ed. Penguin: p.932)']
