One of the huntsmen rode ride up and whipped whip off the dogs , who would soon have torn her to pieces .

Without waiting to rise he whipped whip a revolver from his pocket , firing fire point blank at the great mountain of muscle towering before him ; but , quick as he was , John Clayton was almost as quick , so that the bullet which was intended for the sailor 's heart lodged lodge in the sailor 's leg instead , for Lord Greystoke had struck strike down the captain 's arm as he had seen see the weapon flash flash in the sun .

In this instance I was , of course , positive that Powell was the center of attraction , but whether I thought or acted first I do not know , but within an instant from the moment the scene broke break upon my view I had whipped whip out my revolvers and was charging charge down upon the entire army of warriors , shooting shoot rapidly , and whooping whooping at the top of my lungs .
