" There," said he, thrusting his foot out of the hammock, " see how these infernal imps have been drawing my life's blood.
256 페이지 - I had often wished to have been once sucked by the vampire in order that I might have it in my power to say it had really happened to me. There can be no pain in the operation, for the patient is always asleep when the vampire is sucking him ; and as for the loss of a few ounces of blood, that would be a trifle in the long run, Many a night have I slept with my foot out of the hammock to tempt this winged surgeon...
