Its lacerated side, which bled profusely, showed that it had been shot. "What villain has dared to hurt you, my poor Faithful?" exclaimed Dick. The dog's only reply, true to its name, was to lick his hand and endeavour to rise, but again it fell back, and after a few convulsive struggles, expired. "Poor, poor Faithful! Janet will miss you, that she will!

She had horribly lacerated his dignity for a week he could recall every single hurt and he was not going to allow himself to recover in a minute. His dignity required a gradual convalescence.

And with the eyes of a somnambulist he looked down at his fingers and shook them as if blood were dripping from them.

But a man who is in a state of rage whose heart has become lacerated does not count the cost of his action. So much for the Khilafat wrong.

I am free to confess again that the crowds in Amritsar went mad for a moment.

Into this I plunged my head, keeping it immersed as long as my breath would allow, meanwhile removing the blood from my face and hair as well as I could.
