	William Wilkie Collins - Antonina
		From the words of Vetranio, who was drunkenly penitent, and of Ulpius, who was insanely defiant and had fled the house, Numerian learned his daughter's innocence, and bitterly repented him of the unjust judgment that had driven her in terror from her home.
		At last, in his blind journeying with Antonina, Ulpius came upon a temple of Serapis, for, though the pagan worship had been suppressed, a superstitious fear had deterred the people and the Senate from destroying the temples of the old religion or despoiling them of their rich treasures of gold, ivory, and precious stones.
		While Ulpius, in his dazed way, was apparently planning to force Antonina down the fatal stairway as a sacrifice Goisvintha emerged from her hiding-place and struck deep into the neck of her victim with the knife that had maimed Hermanric.

	\| hlo - Hungarian Literature Online
		The young Mihály, plagued by physical and mental difficulties (He sees whirlpools around him.), makes close friends with his mysterious classmate, Tamás Ulpius, by chance; and as he becomes a regular visitor at the Ulpius house in the Castle Hill district of Buda, his life is totally transformed.
		However, the mythology of the Ulpius house – whose one-time inhabitants and visitors were themselves attracted to various mythologies – lives on.
		In the light of his intricate, self-reflexive narrative, it becomes clear that all the oddness in his behaviour so far must be attributed to the experiences behind his story, which – as Erzsi and the readers may well suspect – will inform his actions for the rest of the novel.

		That of the old pagan and new Christian religions, seen as equally destructive, embodied in the opposing characters of Ulpius and Numerian; and that of the strong figure of the Goth, Goisvintha, (modelled on Norna in Scott's The Pirate) seeking revenge against the weak heroine, Antonina.
