The Tenth Director listened to the President's recitative of their difficulties, chorused by the Board. "Gentlemen," said Director Churm, "you want two things. The first is Money!"
"What does he look like, Irene?" they chorused. "Men are no judges." "He is tall, and dark, and broad-shouldered," Miss Trevor enumerated, as though counting her stitches, "and he has a very firm chin, and a straight nose, and " "Perfect!" they cried. "I had an idea he was just like that. I should go wild about him. Does he talk as well as he writes, Mr. Allen?"
I'll be right back with you. You'll wait for me, surely, won't you?" "Oh, sure!" chorused both sailors. Then, as Jack Benson scurried down the street, the two supposed sailors turned to each other, chuckling softly. "Sure we'll waits" repeated one of the pair. It was several minutes ere Jack returned, coming up almost breathlessly. "Sorry to keep you waiting, boys," he spoke, hastily.
If you'll excuse me, I'll go change my things." He reappeared again in a suspiciously short time for one who had to change outright, and the men admired his endurance and paid up the bet. "Where did you find him, Van?" one of them asked. "Oh, yes," they all chorused. "Where was he?" "That," said Mr. Van Bibber, "is a thing known to only two beings, Duncan and myself.
It's a moral impossibility, d'ee see, for people to git along without a leader, so if I agree to lead you in this, you must agree to follow me in everything is it so?" "Agreed, agreed!" chorused his friends, only too glad that one of the physically strongest among them also one of the best-humoured should stand up to stem the tide of anarchy which they all clearly saw was rising among them.
"Aw, gwan!" adjured Happy Jack helplessly, and reached for his clothes, while the Happy Family chorused a demand for explanations.
Hallelujah! Bum again! Hallelujah! Give us a hand-out! To save us from sin!" The Tahitians rocked to and fro, threw back their heads, and, their eyes shut as in their religious himenes, chorused joyfully: "Hahrayrooyah! I'm a boom! Hahrayrooyah! Boomagay! Hahrayrooyah! Hizzandow! To tave ut fruh tin!"
"I'll give you in charge for desertion. I'll" With a supreme gesture the engineer prepared to dive, but the watchful mate fell on his neck and tripped him over a seat. "Come aboard!" cried the skipper, aghast at such determination. "Come aboard, and I'll give you a licking when we get ashore instead." "Honour bright?" inquired the engineer. "Honour bright," chorused the three.
The signaler mimicked the whistling sound, and clicked his heels together. "Ha!" he said, "soixante-quinze good, eh?" The captain called to him, and again he revolved the handle and called to the battery. "Garsong," said Robinson, "a plate of swa-song-canned beans, si voo play and serve 'em hot" A German shell dropped again, and again the chorused howls and laughter of the Towers marked its fall.
They danced; they sang; they blasphemed; they chorused "Rule Britannia," and "God save the Queen," by way of taunt and defiance of the men whose death agonies they had come to see! Their shouts and brutal cries disturbed the doomed victims inside the prison as in their cells they prepared in prayer and meditation to meet their Creator and their God.
