Quotation from: The Little Lady of the Big House

Written by: Jack London


"Very well, my dear." Forrest drew back his body and spread his
resting palms. "I'm coming over to you."


Action and speech were simultaneous. His body, posited sidewise from
his hands, was vaulted across, the perilous spurs a full foot above
the glossy white surface. And simultaneously Lute ducked and went
under the piano on hands and knees. Her mischance lay in that she
bumped her head, and, before she could recover way, Forrest had
circled the piano and cornered her under it.
