Mark Twain's profanity

[James A. Landau <JJJRLandau@netscape.com>]

A friend of mine is writing a play about Mark Twain and Mary Baker Eddy and is looking for an idea of just what Twain said in his famous profanity.

I have found several descriptions of Mark Twain's profanity but only one alleged example of his exact words.

Does anyone have a source for the text of Victorian cussing?
