The following quote is from Drums of Autumn by Diana Gabaldon, chapter 1, “A Hanging in Eden.” Copyright 1997 by Diana Gabaldon, all rights reserved.

“I glanced at the slightly bulging front of his breeches, and then up at him. Broad-shouldered and tall, with bold, clean features and a Highlander’s proud carriage, he drew the glance of every woman he passed, even with his bright hair covered by a sober blue tricorne. The breeches, which were borrowed, were substantially too tight, and did nothing whatever to detract from the general effect—an effect enhanced by the fact that he himself was totally ignorant of it.
‘You’re a walking inducement to harlots,’ I said. ‘Stick by me; I’ll protect you.’”
