### [c10.327](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.yule-burnell-1886.c10.327)

Prompt to assault, and careless of defence,  
Invulnerable in his impudence,  
He dares the World; and eager of a name,  
He thrusts about and justles into fame.  
Frontless and satire-proof, he scours the streets  
And runs an Indian Muck at all he meets."  
The Hind and the Panther, line 2477.
