The beautiful hardwood door-panel splintered, the latch fetched away, and I broke the nails of the four fingers of my right hand in a futile grab at the flying door, marring the polished surface with four parallel scratches. I kept right on, erupting into Captain West's spacious room with the big brass bed.
Young cattle that are replacing and erupting their teeth are most prone to "lumpy jaw." Conditions that favor bruising of the jaw and external wounds favor the development of actinomycosis. The fungus grows in the tissues, causing an inflammatory reaction and destruction of the tissue.
The power flowed into and through him, part surrounding him in a silvery glow, part erupting from his hands like emerald blaster bolts. The bolts flared off Nevan's shield, blending in with his counterattack. Medart's shield blazed scarlet, held but he gasped as all-too-familiar pain shot through him.
All he had to shower was vegetables, and he showered them in a way that would have caused the goddess Ceres to be talked about. His garden became a perfect crater, erupting vegetables. Why vegetables? I think I hear some heckler cry. Why not flowers fresh, fair, fragrant flowers? You can do a lot with flowers. Girls love them. There is poetry in them.
"Lay alongside that young woman before she makes the corner, Albert!" Without delay the car began to move. Meanwhile, the Café des Exiles was erupting antic shapes, waiters, customers, Dupont, Thérèse. The quiet hour was made hideous by their yells. "Stop thief!" "À la voleuse!" "L'arrêtez!" "À la voleuse!" "Stop thief!"
The dust under the feet of the fighting men leveled under their shifting, dragging feet; it bore the print of their bodies where they had lain and rolled in it; erupting volcanoes belched it heavily upward; it caught and gripped their legs to the ankles, making their movements slow and sodden. This condition favored the larger man.
Like the gray of lava, the Gray soldiery was erupting from the range; in columns, still under the control of officers, keeping to the defiles; in swarms and batches, under the control of nothing but their own emotions. Mostly they were hugging cover, from instinct if not from direction, but some relied on straight lines of flight and speed of foot for escape.
There had once been an earthquake in American City; could this be another one? Or had a volcano opened up in the midst of Main Street? Or could it have been a gas-main? And was this the end, or would it explode some more? Would the volcano go on erupting, and blow Peter and his frail packing-box thru the walls of Guggenheim's Department-store?
But it was two hours before Miss Forsythe gave over watching furtively the door, and it was daylight before Chip Emmett found a gray hat under the water bench a hat which he finally recognized as Weary's and so appropriated to his own use. Weary clattered up to the school-house door to find it erupting divers specimens of young America by adoption, some of them.
In my state of mind I doubted not in the least that she meant to marry the pitcher who won the game, and so I told the Rube. He made one wild upheaval of his arms and shoulders, like an erupting volcano, which proved to me that he believed it, too. When I got to the bench that afternoon I was tired.
