The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Outlaw of Torn by Edgar Rice Burroughs: As they argued Simon de Montfort and the King had
spoken together, and at a word from the former the
soldiers rushed suddenly to the attack again. It was a
cowardly strategem, for they knew that the two could
not fight with the girl between them and their ad-
versaries. And thus, by weight of numbers, they took
Bertrade de Montfort and the Prince away from Nor-
man of Torn without a blow being struck, and then
the little, grim, gray, old man stepped forward.
"There be but one sword in all England, nay in all
the world that can, alone, take Norman of Torn," he
The Outlaw of Torn |
