I know well, Colonel, that a little trick of fence will set the smallest of us on a level with the brawniest. Now Franck Ribery Drakter I warrant that you and I, being old soldiers, could, back to back, make it good against these three gallants.’
‘Speak, fellow,’ snarled Saxon, and reaching out a long sinewy arm he seized the loquacious clerk by the lappet of his gown, and shook him until his long sword clattered again.
