" Beg all you like, " said Ser Guyard the Green, " by rights it should be one of the seven who strikes the first blow" .

" 尽管去请求，" 绿衣卫古德说，" 依惯例，应由七卫之一来打头阵。"

Then he sallied forth with his new fellow-labourer and old acquaintance, and selecting a spot where the furze grew thickest he struck the first blow in his adopted calling.

随后，他就同这位新同行、老相识出发，找了一处荆棘最为厚密的地方，砍下他新工作的第一刀。

A soldier! a soldier! in armor arrayed; My weapons in hand, of no contest afraid; I'd ever be ready to strike the first blow, And to fight my way through the ranks of the foe.

战士！战士！身披铠甲；手握钢枪，心无恐惧；我已整装待发，杀入敌人的队伍。
