"`S a lie!" he gasped.
Trenchard shut one eye and owlishly surveyed his companion with the other. "They say," he added, "that you're for forsaking `Duke's party."
"Villainous!" Richard protested. "I'll sli' throat of any man `t says so." And draining the pewter at his elbow, he smashed it down on the table to emphasize his seriousness.
Trenchard replenished it with the utmost promptness, then sat back in his tall chair and pulled a moment at the fresh pipe with which he had equipped himself.
I think I espy,"' he quoted presently, "`virtue and valour crouched in thine eye.' And yet.., and yet... if I had cause to think it true, I'd... I'd run you through the vitals - jus' so," and he prodded Richard's waistcoat with the point of his pipe-stem. His swarthy face darkened, his eyes glittered fiercely. "Are ye sure ye're norrer foul traitor?" he demanded suddenly. "Are y' sure, for if ye're not..."
He left the terrible menace unuttered, but it was none the less understood.
