The Black Douglas

CHAPTER L
5/13

And if nothing happens keep it there, but be careful neither to swallow it nor yet to bite upon it.
But if it should chance that either Henriet or Poitou or Gilles de Sille seize hold of your arms, bite hard upon the pellet till you feel a bitter taste and then swallow.

That is all.

You are indeed a cock whose comb wants cutting, and if all be well, we will incise it for your soul's good.

But in the meanwhile you are of our company and fellowship.

So for God's sake and your own do as you are bid.
