"Gnawed them through, Sire, as we suppose, and escaped through the mire in the dark, after the fashion of these accursed frogs of Girvians." "But did he tell you naught ere he bade you good morning?" "He told as the names of all the seven. He that beat down the swords was Hereward himself." "I thought as much. When shall I have that fellow at my side?" "He that fought Richard was one Wenoch."

Charles Kingsley - Hereward, the Last of the English
