Quotation from: Lost Continent

Written by: Edgar Rice Burroughs


But in her struggles, Victory turned Menelek about so that
he saw me. She was striking him in the face with her
clenched fist, and now he was choking her.


At sight of me, he gave voice to a roar of anger.


"What means this, slave?" he cried. "Out of here! Out of
here! Quick, before I kill you!"


But for answer I rushed upon him, striking him with the butt
of the rifle. He staggered back, dropping Victory to the
floor, and then he cried aloud for the guard, and came at
me. Again and again I struck him; but his thick skull might
have been armor plate, for all the damage I did it.
