Its white-capped waves knocked viciously against the trembling sea-wall, and their spray, flying across the drenched bed of the Drive, stung on the window-panes as if to say, in every drop, "It is we, we who have brought you to this!" Medora sent her brother next morning to make inquiries, and at noon she came herself. "The nurse will be here in an hour or two," said Edith Whyland.

They took a long look at the gate, shook it viciously with their horns, then turned impatiently away, like a man who has run four blocks to a bank, only to find "closed" staring him in the face.

The "foreigner" had fascinated Madge, made him look cheap and coarse, uncouth and undesirable. As he had walked along the roads which, later in the morning, Madge had followed, he had frowned blackly at the sunrise and the waking birds, kicked viciously at little sticks and stones which chanced along his way.

She never wanted to see or to hear of Miss Beaton again. Upstairs she took from her Latin Grammar a pencilled paper, interlined and much erased, and tore it into bits viciously little bits. Then she went and put them in the waste-paper basket. "You just feel it and then you write," Margaret had said, and Emily was feeling again, and deeply; later she wrote.

The author has met and suffered from them at the far north on the very glaciers of Alaska during the short summer months, and in the extreme south near the Antarctic Circle, in the East and in the West, on sea and on land. Of course they are perennial here like the foliage, and viciously tormenting.

Bullsom said, doubling the paper up and bringing it down viciously upon his knee, "Henslow will never sit again for Medchester. There was none too mulch push about him last session, but he smoothed us all over somehow. He'll not do it again. I'm losing faith in the man, Brooks." Brooks was genuinely disturbed. His own suspicions had been gathering strength during the last few weeks.

On the table where, the previous night, I had counted the money there still was lying the packet of twenty five thousand florins. I handed it to her. "The francs are mine, then, are they? They are mine?" she inquired viciously as she balanced the money in her hands. "Yes; they have ALWAYS been yours," I said. "Then TAKE your fifty thousand francs!" and she hurled them full in my face.

She could only see that Miss Townshead's head was bent lower over the paper than it had been, but she had a suspicion as to what the girl was feeling. It was also partly, but not more than partly justified, for Nellie Townshead was writing mechanically just then, though now and then she drove the pencil somewhat viciously into the paper when the hasty words grew faster.

"Stop!" cried Butzow to Maenck. "Are you mad, that you would kill the king?" Maenck lunged again, viciously, at the unprotected body of his antagonist. "Die, you pig of an idiot!" he screamed. Butzow saw that the man really meant to murder Leopold. He seized Barney by the shoulder and whirled him backward.

A fight like that is worth a million dollars to the man who wins it!" Westmoreland may be president of the Peace League, and tell us that force is all wrong. Nevertheless, his great-grandmother was born in Tipperary. We kept the Butterfly Man indoors for a week, while Westmoreland doctored a viciously black eye and sewed up his lip.
