I saw the LORD standing upon the altar: and he said, Smite the lintel of the door, that the posts may shake: and cut them in the head, all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword: he that fleeth of them shall not flee away, and he that escapeth of them shall not be delivered.

It wasn't he who brought the yeomen on us.
"Not so," was Bruno's answer, as he passed on: "it is the hireling, not the shepherd, that fleeth from the wolf, and leaveth the sheep to be scattered." He made his way easily into the hall, for no one thought of staying a priest. The lower end was thronged with soldiers.

Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.
And they said: 'Is it true that Rolf Stake and his Berserks flee neither fire nor iron?
