The following quote is taken from Drums of Autumn by Diana Gabaldon, chapter 11, The Law of Bloodshed. Copyright (c) 1997 by Diana Gabaldon. All rights reserved.

I had two bottle of pure alcohol, another of brandy. I poured a good dose of the brownish powdered root into the brandy, and shook it briskly, then crawled to the man’s head and pressed it to his lips.

His eyes were glazed; I tried to look into them, to make him see me. Why? I wondered, even as I leaned close and called his name. I couldn’t ask if this would be his choice–I had made it for him. And having made it, could not ask for either approval or forgiveness.
