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: "Who be ye, varlet?" cried the Baron. "Ho, John!
Ho, Guy! To the rescue, quick!" he shrieked, and
drawing his sword he attempted to back quickly toward
the main doorway of the hall; but the man in armor
was upon him and forcing him to fight ere he had taken
three steps.
It had been short shrift for Peter of Colfax that night
had not John and Guy and another of his henchmen
rushed into the room with drawn swords.
"Ware! Sir Knight," cried the girl, as she saw the
three knaves rushing to the aid of their master.
