Dumas

Seeing this, the gentleman drew his sword, and sprang upon D'Artagnan; but he had too strong an adversary. In three seconds D'Artagnan had wounded him three times, exclaiming at each thrust,''One for Athos; one for Porthos; and one for Aramis!''
At the third hit the gentleman fell like a log. D'Artagnan believed him to be dead, or at least insensible, and went towards him for the purpose of taking the order; but the moment he extended his hand to search for it, the wounded man, who had not dropped his sword, plunged the point into his breast, crying, ''One for you!''
''And one for me,--the best for last!'' cried D'Artagnan, furious, nailing him to the earth with a fourth thrust through his body.



Why is when people are about or are doing something to something else, they always say something. I do think it is funny how he repeats the man, ''And one for me.'' Like he did feel left out. My dad one time was about to shoot an elk, right before he did he said ''Over here.'' The out come was that his shot was off, so he chased for another four hours longer before he got it. He said from them on, shot then talk.
