Excerpt
But here Billy Chope arrived to demand what the ell Sam Cardew was doing with his gal. Now Sam was ever
readier for a fight than Billy was; but the sum of Billy's half pints was large: wherefore the fight began. On the
skirt of a hilarious ring Lizerunt, after some small outcry, triumphed aloud. Four days before, she had no bloke;
and here she stood with two, and those two fighting for her! Here in the public gaze, on the Flats! For almost five
minutes she was Helen of Troy. - Arthur Morrison
