"Uglúk sprang forwards, and with two swift strokes swept the heads off two of his opponents. Grishnákh stepped aside and vanished into the shadows. The others gave way, and one stepped backwards and fell over Merry's prostrate form with a curse." - J.R.R. Tolkien, 'The Lord of the Rings', Book III, CH. 3, 'The Uruk-hai'
