I shall drive him into the earth, like a nail into a door, rather than see you do scath to each other." "'Fore God, this is a strange way of preaching peace," cried Black Simon. "You may find the scath yourself, my lusty friend, if you raise your great cudgel to me. I had as lief have the castle drawbridge drop upon my pate."

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle - The White Company
