SIMON: That's all right. _(He swoops uncertainly through the air, wheeling, uttering cries of heartening, on strong ponderous buzzard wings)_ Ho, boy! Are you going to win? Hoop! Pschatt! Stable with those halfcastes. Wouldn't let them within the bawl of an a.s.s. Head up! Keep our flag flying! An eagle gules volant in a field argent displayed.
