Rousing her maid, she ordered her to apply to the ship's surgeon for bandages and to fetch them to her at once. "I know, yes, I know. You are dying, but do as I tell you. This instant! Why should you, a great hulking beast of a woman, be dying every minute of the day while I, not half your size, am tingling all over with life? Go!"

I tell you, you don't know it, but right this minute you are in the tightest hole you ever slid into. A jury in your case wouldn't leave their seats. Men pity helpless children in this life more'n they do big hulking men of your stripe, and they'd sock it to you to the full extent of the law.

When the troopers entered to search for the master of the house, they heard the maid vehemently 'flyting' the great hulking lout for his awkwardness, and threatening to 'draw a stick across his back' if he did not work to a better tune. The commander ordered him to drop his axe, and to point out the different rooms and hiding-places about the castle.

I never saw a woman doing a man's work before. They ought to have a man cooking for all these hulking men." "Oh, the kitchen!" Marian exclaimed impatiently. "I don't mind the cooking. That's the least " "It isn't right, just the same. I I don't suppose that's it altogether.

If they do not choose to tell him anything it will be wise for him not to ask questions." "That's just the way I feel about it, and so I'm going to ask no questions." A hulking figure barred their way, a red face glowed at them, and a rough voice demanded satisfaction.

His muscular and hulking blondness he had rowed four years towered above the dark little men who served, feared, and worshipped him. Unlike the rest of us who preferred to live in a delightful Cloud Cuckoo Town, which happened to be Florence also, he had chosen to take root in Tuscany. First he purged his castellated villa of the international abuses it had undergone for a century.

You are thieves; you are wicked men; you are not men of Sevenbergen, or you would know Margaret Brandt better than to look for her lover in this room of all others in the world. Oh, brave! Four great hulking men to come, armed to the teeth, to insult one poor honest girl! The women that live in your own houses must be naught, or you would respect them too much to insult a girl of good character."

"Huh!" responded the hobo scowling and blinking at the sun and then without a word he started for the house. He was a big, hulking man, with arms like a bear and bulging, bench-like legs; but the expression on his face above his enormous black mustache was that of a disgruntled ground-hog.

"Oh, yes, yes," said Locke. "You're the man he said would go to his island. This is my daughter, Miss Marjorie and Mr. Trask." Jarrow ducked his head. Locke had introduced the others more for the purpose of gaining time to study this hulking, limp-kneed man who stood before him like a gorilla crouched for a spring and squeezing a soft straw hat into a shapeless lump in his hands.

It's to laugh, isn't it, a great, hulking carcass like me, to be " "Peter," said Harmony softly, "aren't you going to look at me?" "I'm afraid." "That's cowardice. And I've fixed my hair a new way. Do you like it?" "Splendid," said Peter to the center table. "You didn't look!" The rout of Harmony's eyes was supplemented by the rout of Harmony's hair. Peter, goaded, got up and walked about.
