Theo was just about to close the print shop, "when a dwarf came strutting in like a gamecock," tossing him some papers and demanding that he have them printed by the morning.   Theo and his master worked all night.  Just as they were finishing, they heard a violent pounding on the door.  Suddenly, the door splintered and crashed.  A man in uniform marched in, swung the butt of his musket, and hit Theo in the ribs.
