So if the sea is far away and time hangs heavy, invite your friends to go sponging and crabbing in the nearest pond, and you may be certain of quieting their fears as to your sanity as well as drawing exclamations of delight from them when they see these beautiful creatures for the first time.
Sharp exclamations of approval broke from all these fierce spirits of the border. But the deepest and most dangerous gleam of all was in the eyes of Henry Ware. All his primeval instincts were alive, and foremost among them was the desire to fight. He was tired of running, of seeking to escape, and his warlike blood was up and leaping.
"It is then decreed above," exclaimed Maille, "that I shall always be thy servant and thy debtor!" Thereupon the comrade departed, in order not to be inundated with the tears, exclamations, and other expressions of grief which ladies make use of when saying "Farewell."
The population rushed out of their houses, and asked eagerly: "What is it? What can it be?" Some ventured the opinion: "It is, perhaps, a travelling circus." But exclamations arose on all sides: "You did not notice the style of it the carriage and the harness shining like gold, and the little horses with their white rosettes on each side of the head."
This change, which was much to the disadvantage of Canalis, came about through considerations of a nature which ought to make the holders of any kind of fame pause, and reflect.

Then followed a general tittering, accompanied with exclamations of "Lord, what a fright!" "It's enough to kill one with laughing to look at him!" "Did you ever see such a horrid creature in your life?" And soon after, one of them screamed out "O Lord, see! he's grinning at Miss Beverley!"

Their laughter, their exclamations, sounded shallow and insincere. And yet it was borne in upon them that they did still care for one another.
"O papa, papa!" she sobbed, "my own papa, you do not love me; me, your own little girl. Oh! my heart will break. O mamma, mamma! if I could only go to you; for there is no one here to love me, and I am so lonely, oh! so lonely and desolate." And thus Chloe found her, when she came in an hour later, weeping and sobbing out such broken exclamations of grief and anguish.
Springing to the door that opened on to the balcony porch, John threw it open and they went out, taking the Interpreter in his chair. In breathless silence they strained their eyes toward the dark mass of the Mill with its forest of stacks and its many lights. "Everything seems to be all right there," murmured John. But as the last word left his lips a chorus of exclamations came from the others.
Every few steps he would interrupt his march to address the bewildered bystanders in words in which he glorified the Báb and magnified the significance of his own death. As his eyes beheld the candles flickering in their bloody sockets, he would burst forth in exclamations of unrestrained delight.
