faultless symmetry of her figure, than for her wonderful strength and agility,
conducted herself in the present encounter; with what dexterity she parried every
blow aimed against her by her adversary, whose head and face, already marked
by various ruddy streams, showed how successfully her own hits had been made;
—how she drew him hither and thither, now leading him on, now driving him
suddenly back; harassing and exhausting him in every possible way, and making

been, even though he was obliged to lean on his silver-handled cane to do so.
