 Instructions:

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book on your desk! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.

Okey doke (and coincidentally the page had a bookmark, so it must be a good one):  

"And with that her Mistris delivered her a suit of white Sattin, that was one of the Guards that lay at her house. Meg put it on, and tooke her whinyard by her side, and away she went into Saint Georges  fields to meet Sir James. Presently after came Sir James, and found his Mistris very melancholy, as women have faces that are fit for all fancies."

Alfred Hutton, The Sword through the Centuries
