Literature

Lie Direct (The). Sir, that's a lie. You are a liar. This is an offence no gentleman can take.
"One day as I was walking, with my customary
Swagger,
Says a fellow to me, `Pistol, you're a coward,
Though a bragger.'
Now, this was an indignity no gentleman could
Take, sir;
So I told him flat and plump. `You lie- (under
A mistake sir).' " Source: Brewer's Dictionary.
