"You know that practical jokes are vulgar. Besides, do you suppose that man would allow himself to be insulted? And his friends?" "At night he goes out alone." "How do you know that?"
As we drive in a hackney cab past this dead-alive spot, and chance to look down the little Rue du Doyenne, a shudder freezes the soul, and we wonder who can lie there, and what things may be done there at night, at an hour when the alley is a cut-throat pit, and the vices of Paris run riot there under the cloak of night.
When the morning dawned, Phedo perceived that he was really lost, and he began to be afraid that he might meet the terrible soldier. But, after a time, he saw riding toward him a very pleasant-looking young man on a handsome horse, and he immediately took courage. "Now," said he to himself, "I am no longer in danger. If that horrible cut-throat should appear, this good gentleman will protect me."
"Yes, dear man, yes, I dare say no doubt," Poppy answered brokenly. "Only I can't rise to these philosophic heights. I'm right here, don't you see, my feet well on the floor, planted in brutal commonplace. I shall want you just simply I shall want you, and you won't be there, and I shall be most cut-throat horribly lonely and sad. But, looking at you, still I don't believe it. I won't believe it.
"My friend also did not appeal to me at the beginning," said Zherbenev, who would not stay repressed. "To look at him you might think that he's a cut-throat," said Kerbakh. "That describes my man too," announced Zherbenev, as if he were announcing something gay and pleasant. "But at heart," went on Kerbakh, "he is an ingenuous infant and an enthusiastic patriot."

The forces of order which Clarendon commanded were but scanty. The elements of turbulence were overwhelming in number, and were weakened only by their confusion and diversity.
The four men finally ceased to talk, but the fierce determination which grimly lighted each face, boded ill for Boris' cut-throat gang, when they should be come up with, on the morrow. At last day dawned, and as soon as they could catch horses enough the brutes had wandered back toward the stables as it became lighter they were off.
Will you ask them, please?" He regarded her in frank astonishment. "Jove! I never thought of that. Are you in earnest?" "But yes. In cut-throat earnest!" she answered, laughing. "Ever tried your hand at it?" "Never, in all my days. I will this afternoon though, if you'll take me in hand for an hour or so." "With all the pleasure in life. You can ride Diamond, if you like.
And yet I for striking down a greater tyrant than they ever knew, am looked upon as a common cut-throat. My action was purer than either of theirs. One hoped to be great. The other had not only his country's, but his own wrongs to avenge. I knew no private wrong. I struck for my country and that alone.
Probably the best-known swordsman in all England! 'Pon my word, if you should even graze him, it would almost make you a peer. If you truly pinked him, you could marry a duchess. My eye, what an opportunity for a young and ambitious man." "And what right has he to be such a fine swordsman?" I demanded fretfully. "Damn him! 'Tis no right of a little tadpole like him to be a great cut-throat.
