“With what do you reproach your adversary?”
“With having lied.”
“That is not the point. I speak of his conduct on the field of combat. I have nothing to do with the rest.”
“On the field, we were seven in number. My adversary could not have behaved dishonorably had we been but two. I have an arm equal to his own. I do not fear him.”
“You are doubtless skilful with the sword?”
“I do not know. Until this affair, I had never held a sword on guard.”
“Then there is nothing with which you can reproach your adversary?”
“Yes: with having lied.”
“And are you quite sure?”
“Yes, quite sure.”
