I really must get around to reply, as if an infinite fold to infinity,
about past mails.
But this from crazyfish quote seems a worth it cut and paste;

A cramp raced up Claude's left side. Halting, he stifled an urge to
yelp. No, he was not a speared goat or Christ wounded on his side. He
had recognized Benoit---the stupid one---among the youths. His face
looked like mangled dough and sported a prominent chin and forehead, and
a dimple for a nose. God had punched his face in before he was born.
What more, Claude owed him five sous---a gambling debt from a tennis
game, which had promised the lucky chance of "mammon and victuals."
/Whatever did that mean./
No God-raped sissy would catch him this time, for Claude whirled away
southward towards to the Garonne. But barely had he lifted his right
foot to dash away when his side cramped again.
There in the twilight view upon the cobbled streets, Bearitz Alecon
cowered before a trio of maidens bound in an unrequited love for Isarn.
It was familiar occurrence for the daughter of a seamstress. The maidens
yanked at her auburn hair and poked flinty fingers at her kerchief
shielding her humble bosom. But Bearitz stood mute and pale, like Mary
Magdalene before her accusers.
"You dare lift your haggish countenance on our Isarn again."
"Your sallow color isn't fit for our Isarn."
"Cheeks like maggots and you dare bewitch our Isarn."
Isarn, Isarn, Isarn, the words dammed in Claude's mind. Bearitz's
piteous face had him shuffling elbows and twisting gazes and scratching
his lice-ridden testicles in his pose of rabid contemplation. Isarn, he
thought, a rakehell of broad shoulders and tawny lovelocks, a thief of
his good peace, who rammed his ears with love conquests. And this grand
show of passivity---Claude fisted a hand to his lips---silliness from
wenches who should kiss more and swoon less.
Those maidens now were imperiously smacking Bearitz's shoulders.
"Isarn desires no lame sow," another screech scrawled on his peace.
Fight back, you coxcomb wench, Claude thought maddeningly. But this was
no time for intervention, not with Benoit and friends approaching closer
from behind. He swallowed hard. Flittering nervous gazes, he
determined, Bearitz would have to learn of mettle all by herself.
To his left, right by an ass nuzzling its head against the supporting
beam of a stall, a cart rolled away from the entrance of sparse-looking
alley. Claude bounded one step to freedom, only to view a magnificent
slap upon Bearitz's face. Her lips rippled in a tremolo of umbrage and
tears, thrusting him into a fluster of fury.
"Thou rump-fed toadstools!" he cried. "Why you demonesses slap her for?"
The women upturned their venomous gazes onto him, and so did attentions
of the three men.
"Marry, is that the sissy who owes me five sous?"
"/For Certes!"/
The students' blades brandished their annoyance, the wild metallic whine
slicing through the barbarous air. The evening crowd scarcely gasped or
shrugged as the clatter of hard boots charged for Claude. In the moment
it took to sigh at his fate and huff an athletic breath, Claude sprinted
and traversed through the row of the Isarn-addled wenches, grabbing
Bearitz as his prize.
