You are hungry, but you will be starved; you are Prisoned in mills and mines, but you will be walled up in dungeons; you are beaten with whips, but you will be beaten with clubs, your flesh will be torn by bullets, your skin will be burned with fire and your lungs poisoned with deadly gases-such is the dominion of this world.
"They Call Me Carpenter"
Upton Sinclair
It was a ruse, he saw it all; a ruse to keep him there, silent, Prisoned, whilst his cheque, his precious cheque, was placed in the hands of the Gleaner people.
"The Sins of Séverac Bablon"
Sax Rohmer
Lingard and Dick Wantele at last escaped, leaving Mrs. Maule Prisoned by her guest.
