I may be king of Lacedæmon before long.” “I knew that before, but where’s your chariot driving?” “Dear Athenian, the Persian chariot is now driving toward Hellas. We cannot halt it. Then let us be so wise that it does not pass over us.”

Or is his temper due to coffee?” Answering only with a quiet grin, Hal rowed alongside the starboard side gangway. Jack, waiting, sprang quickly to the steps, ascending, waving his hand to Hal as he went. Young Hastings quickly shoved off, then bent to his oars. “Where’s the pilot?” came a stern voice, from the bridge, as Jack Benson’s head showed above the starboard rail.

But the fight had all gone out of Alida’s voice; it was the groan of an animal in a trap. "Where’s papa gone to?" "Sh-sh, Judith! Topeka, keep your sister quiet." It was absolutely still, within and without, for a full minute. Then Alida heard the shoving of shoulders against the door. Once, twice, thrice the lock resisted them. The brown bureau spun across the room like a child’s toy.

While Lucinda was leaning far out and attempting to cause said blinds to catch on the hooks, which habitually held them back against the side of the house, her mistress addressed her with a suddeness which showed that she had awakened with her wits surprisingly well in hand.

He hurried to the boat and stood there, bewildered. He didn’t know how to get in.

Hunt Rennie’s head swung around. "What about Johnny?" he demanded. "He took my papersout of my belt!" This was probably the worst thing he could do, to accuse Johnny Shannon without proof.

He took up a small bottle, and looked at it against the gas-jet in the middle of the shop. “Purpleisn’t it?” he remarked, setting it down again. “As I said, it’s strange.

My dear boy, I must speak out for your good, though you’re offended with me. I wish you to have her, I do; but you can’t do impossibilitiesyou can’t alter facts.
