"They want to arrest him," I whispered to him, "to put him in prison, because he was one of the 'Parliamentary youth' lot." "Aha," said Márton, "that's where we are is it?
"Miss Lilla asked me, and I never told her only the truth. They are a cowardly set of hounds, the whole lot of 'em; and I'll take any couple of 'em, one down and t'other come on, with a hand tied behind me." "We shall have to go, Tom," I said bitterly. "What with your brawls and the mischief you have made, this will be no place for us."
In some places the footpath winds along the face of a bank so steep, that, but for the circumstance of its being composed of earth, it might have almost been termed a precipice; and here, if the passenger should miss his footing, it would be nearly impossible for him to stop himself till he reached the bottom, in which a turbulent stream brawls and foams over rocks and stones, disturbing the silence and the solitude of the place with sounds which have a tendency to inspire feelings of superstitious fears.

The country-people support themselves almost entirely upon the fruit of these chestnuts; and there is a large department of Corsica called Castagniccia, from the prevalence of these trees and the sustenance which the inhabitants derive from them. Close by the village brawls a torrent, such as one may see in the Monte Rosa valleys or the Apennines, but very rarely in Switzerland.
As the parties grew larger, the brawls which occurred in the streets became more and more serious, until at last Nero was accustomed to take with him a gang of soldiers and gladiators in disguise, who were instructed to follow him within call, so as to be ready to come up instantly to his aid whenever he should require their assistance.
There were other forms of life, whose company I do not think I ever entirely evaded during my whole period as a lodger of the poorest grade in London. But for the time these trifles did not greatly trouble me. Drunken brawls which occurred later in the evening, immediately under my window, were a nuisance.
When it grew dark, a strong impulse urged him to go to the city, seek brawls, and forget himself at the gaming-table; but he did not yield, and to escape the temptation, fled to the church, where he spent whole hours, till the sacristan put out the lights.
