If you are attacked by day or by night, fight, but retreat, without shame; if you cross a bridge, feel every plank of it with your foot, lest one should give way beneath you; if you pass before a house which is being built, look up, for fear a stone should fall upon your head; if you stay out late, be always followed by your lackey, and let your lackey be armed--if, by the by, you can be sure of your lackey. — from The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas
If you consider these claims not sufficient for your active and effectual sympathy, then let me know at once that the hopes have failed, with which Europe has looked to your great, mighty, and glorious Republic—let me know it at once that I may hasten back and say to the oppressed nations, "Let us fight, forsaken and single-handed, the battle of Leonidas; let us trust to God, to our right, and to our good sword; for we have no other help on earth." — from Select Speeches of Kossuth by Lajos Kossuth
Let us fight fair and
Let us fight fair and square, gloves off, if you like, and acknowledge that we both admire and respect Miss Wayne very deeply." — from Afterwards by Kathlyn Rhodes
This tab, called Hiding in Plain Sight,
shows you passages from notable books where your word is accidentally (or perhaps deliberately?)
spelled out by the first letters of consecutive words.

it's fun to explore! What's the longest hidden word you can find? Where is your name hiding?
