He strained his eyes to see what it was impossible for him to see his ranch and Val, and how they had fared. He pictured mentally the guard he had burned beyond the coulee to protect them from just this danger, and his heart squeezed tight at the realization of his own shiftlessness. That guard!
"Quick, quick, a seat for him near me; take his luggage to his room." A young man came up, and she said to him, "Well, I told you he would arrive to-day?" She made me sit near her at the table, after I had been saluted by all the guests who had risen to do me honour. "My dear cousin," she said, addressing me, "you must be hungry;" and as she spoke she squeezed my foot under the table.
And when they scold dreadfully aren't they out of temper? Miss Arabella thought it very unladylike to get out of temper. And what is done to grown people?" Uncle Leverett laughed and squeezed the soft little hands on his knee. Yes, men and women flew into a rage every day. Their strict training had not given them control of their tempers. It had not made them all honest and truthful.
The nerve cells become more sensitive to stimuli, more sugar is poured into the blood from the liver, more red blood corpuscles are squeezed into the circulation from the blood lakes of the liver and spleen.

Like everything else in the glacier, the moulin slowly moves down the slope, and remains open as long as it is the seat of descending waters produced by the summer melting. When it ceases to be kept open from the summer, its walls are squeezed together in the fashion that the crevices are closed.
Knowing that he would be shooting over a two hundred percent negative gravitation-field, Verkan Vall aimed for the Assassin's belt-buckle and squeezed. The bullet caught him in the throat. Evidently the bullet had not only been lifted in the negative gravitation, but lifted point-first and deflected upward. He held his front sight just above the other man's knee, and hit him in the chest.
Mallet, how could you let him?" asked Mrs. Hudson, terribly. "Everything I have is at his service," said Rowland, feeling ill. "Of course Mr. Mallet will help you, my son!" cried the poor lady, eagerly. "Oh, leave Mr. Mallet alone!" said Roderick. "I have squeezed him dry; it 's not my fault, at least, if I have n't!" "Roderick, what have you done with all your money?" his mother demanded.
At midnight she got up and lighted a candle, looked at him, took him in her arms, squeezed him to her bosom till he cried, and the thought came that it would be sweeter to kill him with her own hands than to be parted from him. The thought of murder went with the night, and she enjoyed the journey to Wandsworth.
Rabbit hadn't waited long before he saw some one come out of the elderberry bushes and hurry up to the stump. It was Peter Mink! He had a bag in his hand.
