When he saw Theseus, he roared and put his head down and rushed right at him. But Theseus stepped aside nimbly, and as the monster passed by, cut him in the knee, and ere he could turn in the narrow path, he followed him, and stabbed him again and again from behind, till the monster fled, bellowing wildly.
"That unknown man was murdered stabbed to the heart." "Well?" "Well," she said, scarcely above a whisper, "I have suspicions." "Of the murdered man's identity?" "No. Of the assassin." I glanced at her sharply and saw the intense look in her dark, wide-open eyes. "You believe you know who dealt the blow?" "I have a suspicion that is all. Only I want you to help me, if you will."
This was the reason why, as we sat together upon Dead Man's Rock, the eyes of John Railton had refused to meet mine: this was the reason why his murderer had gripped me so viciously upon Ready-Money Beach. These few words of my uncle's began slowly to piece together the scattered puzzle of the last two days, so that I half guessed the answer as I asked "Murdered! How?" "He was stabbed to death."
Between the crutches, the lameness, and the trembling she presented to Sid Hahn, as she stood in the doorway, a picture that stabbed his kindly, sensitive heart with a quick pang of sympathy. He held out his hand. Josie's crept into it. At the feel of that generous friendly clasp she stopped trembling.
Doughty says that at midnight on June 7, 1868, he was called to see a man who had been stabbed in a street altercation with a negro. The incision, about an inch in length, was closed with a single stitch of silk thread, and after thorough cleansing the whole mass was returned to the abdominal cavity.

She worked so skillfully on the fanatical mind of the young Jacobin friar, Jacques Clement, that he undertook the death of the king. He entered the camp with letters for Henri, whom he stabbed while reading them.
Rendered thus more self-important, he talked much in the home circle concerning the greatness of classical antiquity, and wondered "who would not willingly have been stabbed, if only he could have been Cæsar? One feeble ray of his glory would be an ample recompense for sudden death." Such chances for Cæsarism as the island of Corsica afforded were very rapidly becoming better.
No! the routine of profissional ass-ass-ination had but begun; nixt they stabbed him with cupping-needles, and so stole more of his life-blood. And they were goen from their stabs to their bites, goen to leech his temples, and so hand him over to the sixton." "But you came in and saved him," cried Alfred.
"Because he knew that the game was up. Mrs. Jasher wrote out this confession, and told Cockatoo, when he entered the room to get the emerald, that she had written it. To save his master the Kanaka stabbed the wretched woman, and, had Random and I not arrived, he would have secured the confession. I really believe he came back again out of the mist in the small hours of the morning to steal it.
He is himself one of the Five; he is in London, has been there for months; and it is he who is to bring her before the tribunal, by force or guile." "He is dead, murdered; stabbed to the heart in his own room, even as Carson was, four days ago." He sat down plump on the nearest chair. "Dead! That, at least, is one of her enemies disposed of! That is good news, splendid news, Herr Wynn.
