DURETETE _(Captain)_, a rather heavy gentleman who takes lessons in
gallantry from his friend, young Mirabel. Very bashful with ladies,

DURWARD (_Quentin_), hero and title of a novel by Sir W. Scott.

the pay of Louis XI., at Plessis les Tours, and saves the king in a
boar-hunt. When Leigeis is assaulted by insurgents, Quentin Durward
and the Countess Isabelle de Croye escape on horseback. The countess
publicly refuses to marry the duc d'Orleans, and ultimately marries
the young Scotchman.

DUSRONNAL, one of the two steeds of Cuthullin, general of the Irish
tribes. The other was "Sulin-Sifadda" (_q. v._).

Before the left side of the car is seen the
snorting horse. The thin-maned, high-headed,
strong-hoofed, fleet, bounding son of the hill.
His name Dusronnal, among the stormy sons of
the sword ... the [_two_] steeds like wreaths of
mist fly over the vales. The wildness of deer is
in their course, the strength of eagles descending
on the prey.--Ossian, _Fingal_ i.
