The following quote is from Written in My Own Heart’s Blood by Diana Gabaldon, chapter 5, “The Passions of Young Men.” Copyright ©️2014 by Diana Gabaldon, all rights reserved.

“‘Have you been set upon and robbed?’ one of the others demanded. ‘God! This filthy place!’
He felt at once comforted by their company—and hideously embarrassed by it. He was not one of them, not any longer.
‘Was it? Was it robbery?’ another said, glaring round eagerly. ‘We’ll find the bastards who did it, ’pon my honor we will! We’ll get your property back and teach whoever did it a lesson!’
Blood was running down the back of his throat, harsh and iron-tasting, and he coughed but did his best to nod and shrug simultaneously. He had been robbed. But no one was ever going to give him back what he’d lost today.”
