To the very last, as long as his eyes could see, they saw her smiling bravely and sweetly down into them; giving her sacrament and holding her light of cheering love for the soul out-bound. When the last twinging tremour had run through the racked body, she leaned over and kissed her father full on the lips. Then her heart broke. She ran blindly out into the night.
"Na, na nae priest! nae priest!" she ejaculated; and the door of the cottage opening as she spoke, prevented her from proceeding. Still in his dead hand clenched remain the strings That thrill his father's heart e'en as the limb, Lopped off and laid in grave, retains, they tell us, Strange commerce with the mutilated stump, Whose nerves are twinging still in maimed existence. Old Play.
The poor Cornet, however, pitiously proceeded, as well as a man could do with such a twinging belly ach, and said, "That he really was very sorry for it; but as it could not be helped now, he trusted that we would proceed under the command of Serjeant-major Pinkney, and he was quite sure that we should conduct ourselves in a manner that would do credit to the troop.
He was a heavy dragoon with a soul for foxhounds. Later, when gout got to twinging him, he contented himself with cards and cronies. And then Destiny, like a novelist who does not know what to do with a character, sent him on an excursion across the River Styx. This was a good move all round, and the only accommodating action in which the Baron ever had a part.
I was particularly struck you know it, of course? by Beaupark House." Mrs. Eyrecourt's little twinging eyes suddenly became still and steady. It was only for a moment.

At once the dogs began to bark and howl, the fierce giddes lifting their pointed noses to the sky. The girl hurried on, twinging far to the right through the grass.
