Quotation from: The Gods of Mars

Written by: Edgar Rice Burroughs


I caught a glimpse of Issus leaning far forward upon her throne,
her hideous countenance distorted in a horrid grimace of hate and
rage, in which I thought I could distinguish an expression of fear.
It was that face that inspired me to the thing that followed.


Quickly I ordered fifty of the prisoners to drop back behind us
and form a new circle about the maidens.


"Remain and protect them until I return," I commanded.
