And he said that, when we first formed the tribe, it was right that the men whose strength hurt the tribe should be shorn of their strength men who bashed their brothers' heads and stole their brothers' wives.
One of the two hunters, lamed with a kick on the knee, howling with the pain, clinched savagely and bore the seaman down, battering his head against a knob of rock. The other friendly hunter had bashed and buffeted his opponent to submission. But Rainey was in hard case. A seaman, half Mexican, flew at him like a wildcat.
Wiser boys called me a milksop and various other names, which I furiously resented yet inwardly recognized as just. Also they kicked me at times, and bashed me on the nose.

He was thinking sadly of the long-lost days of his youth, and wishing he had been a better man. Liza had no respect for such holy emotions, and she brought down her fist on the crown of his hat, and bashed it over his eyes. 'Na then, old jellybelly, she said, 'wot's the good of 'avin' a fice as long as a kite? He turned round and smote her. 'Jellybelly yerself! said he.
