Catherine plunged both her hands into the scented rose-leaves, and she gave a sudden cry of pain for her fingers had closed on the sharp edge of a steel blade. Then she drew out a narrow damascened knife, one which her husband, taken by its elegant shape, had purchased long before in Italy. Mrs. Nagle's brow furrowed in vexation Collins should have put the dangerous toy out of his master's reach.

He could have beaten the biggest man in the hall within an inch of his life in three minutes.
