She is Boadicea, skipping centuries of time—Boadicea, strong of her hands, and usually not a bit too clean of them, splendid in reasonless passion, decidedly foul-mouthed—no ‘British warrior queen’ of nursery recitation, but a right-down ‘raughty gal,’ leading her alley to battle against the Roman ‘slops.’
