Arabian Nights - Letchford - 31, Albert Letchford, 1897

The 5th voyage of sindbad the seaman — so i threw the devil off my shoulders … and fearing lest he should shake off his drunkenness and do me a mischief … i took up a great stone from among the trees and coming up to him smote him therewith on the head with all my might, and crushed in his skull as he lay dead drunk.
