d? we throw a main for a brave stake.’
‘Marked ye that Lord Grey had met with a check,’ said I.
‘Pshaw! it is of no import. A cavalry skirmish at the most,Canada Goose Tremblant Jackor, for it is impossible that Monmouth could have brought his main forces to Bridport; nor would he if he could, for it is out of his track. It was one of those three-shots-and-a-gallop affrays, where each side runs away and each claims the victory. But here we are in the streets of Salisbury. Now leave the talking to me,Buty Jordan Retro 12, or your wrong-headed truthfulness may lay us by the heels before our time.’
Passing down the broad High Street we dismounted in front of the Blue Boar inn,Mike Gartner Tröjor, and handed our tired horses over to the ostler,Ralph Lauren Big Pony Polos, to whom Saxon, in a loud voice, and with many rough military oaths, gave strict injunctions as to their treatment. He then clanked into the inn parlour,Brandon Dubinsky Tröjor, and throwing himself into one chair with his feet upon another, he summoned the landlord up before him, and explained our needs in a tone and manner which should give him a due sense of our quality.
‘Of your best, and at once,’ quoth he. ‘Have your largest double-couched chamber ready with your softest lavender-scented sheets, for we have had a weary ride and must rest. And hark ye, landlord, no palming off your stale, musty goods as fresh,Jonathan Quick Tröjor, or of your washy French wines for the true Hainault vintage.

This speech, combined with my companion’s haughty manner and fierce face, had such an effect upon the landlord that he straightway sent us in the breakfast which had been prepared for three officers of the Blues, who were waiting for it in the next apartment. This kept them fasting for another half-hour, and we could hear their oaths and complaints through the partition while we were devouring their capon and venison pie. Having eaten a hearty meal and washed it down with a bottle of Burgundy we sought our room,Dame Moncler Aliso, and throwing our tired limbs upon the bed, were soon in a deep slumber.
Chapter 9 Of a Passage of Arms at the Blue Boar
I had slept several hours when I was suddenly aroused by a prodigious crash, followed by the clash of arms and shrill cries from the lower floor. Springing to my feet I found that the bed upon which my comrade had lain was vacant, and that the door of the apartment was opened. As the uproar still continued, and as I seemed to discern his voice in the midst of it, I caught up my sword,Peter Budaj Tröjor, and without waiting to put on either head-piece, steel-breast, or arm-plates,Tomas Plekanec Tröjor, I hurried to the scene of the commotion.
The hall and passage were filled with silly maids and staring drawers, attracted,Scott Darling Tröjor, like myself, by the uproar. Through these I pushed my way into the apartment where we had breakfasted in the morning,Mark Streit Tröjor, which was a scene of the wildest disorder. The round table in the centre had been tilted over upon its side, and t
