Quotation from: Elsinore

Written by: Jack London


"Come out, you rats! Show your ugly faces! I want to talk with
you!"


Guido Bombini, gesticulating peaceable intentions and evidently
thrust out by Bert Rhine, was the first to appear. When it was
observed that Mr. Pike did not fire, the rest began to dribble into
view. This continued till all were there save the cook, the two
sail-makers, and the second mate. The last to come out were Tom
Spink, the boy Buckwheat, and Herman Lunkenheimer, the good-natured
but simple-minded German; and these three came out only after
repeated threats from Bert Rhine, who, with Nosey Murphy and Kid
Twist, was patently in charge. Also, like a faithful dog, Guido
Bombini fawned close to him.
