Benjamin writhed and groaned. His sword was caught underneath him, the hilt deep in the small of his back. Harry hauled the sword-belt off at last and gripped at Benjamin's wrists. He began to struggle again. Do not be troublesome or I'll tap the beer on your brain. So. He hauled the belt taut about the fighting arms and made all fast. Then he sat himself on Benjamin's legs, which thus ceased to be turbulent, and, taking off the garters, therewith tied the ankles together.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
