The Pope even had to become a master of the dance, recommending the "Furlana" instead of the "Tango," since all the Christian world, regardless of sects, was united in the common desire to agitate its feet with the tireless frenzy of the "possessed" of the Middle Ages.
In transcribing I try to forget I am a violinist, in order to form a perfect picture of the musical idea its violinistic development must be a natural, subconscious working-out. If you will look at some of my recent transcripts the Albaniz Tango, the negro melody Deep River and Amani's fine Orientale you will see what I mean.
In Robin's wide eyes was helpless horror and Donal knew too well what she was going to say. "Lord Halwyn is killed!" she gasped out. "And four of his friends! We all danced the tango together and that new kicking step!" She began to sob piteously.
The tiger passed that way and lay down under the tree to rest. Just to tease him the monkey played and sang this little song: "Tango ti tar, tango ti tar, The tiger's bones are in my guitar. Tee hee, Tee hee." The tiger was very angry. "Just wait until I catch you, Mr. Monkey," he said. "Then I'll show you a trick or two with bones."
The lithe gracefulness of her figure spoke of familiarity with both tennis and tango, and her face with its well-chiselled profile denoted intellectuality from which no touch of really feminine charm had been removed by the fearsome process of the creation of the modern woman. Sincerity as well as humour looked out from the liquid depths of her blue eyes beneath the wavy masses of blonde hair.
Tsuna rushed out of the house to shoot her with an arrow, but he saw only a demon far off in the clouds grinning horribly. He noted carefully however that the direction of the imps' flight was to the north-west. A council was now held by Raiko's band, and it was decided that the lurking-place of the demons must be in the mountains of Oyé in the province of Tango.
I Don't throw away what I been building up for us, Jimmie, step by step! Don't, Jimmie!" "Good Lord, girl! You deserve better 'n me." "I know I got a big job, Jimmie, but I want to make a man out of you, temper, laziness, gambling, and all. You got it in you to be something more than a tango lizard or a cigar-store bum, honey.
That afternoon Shirley called again at the Hotel California for Helene. "I want you to go to a sweet, old-fashioned English tea-room, where I may tell you the rest of the story. There will be no tango music, no cymbals, no tinkling cocktails, nor, champagne. Can you pour real tea?" "I am an English girl. I have been five days without it."
Besides, I don't want to live as long as Methuselah. If I did I'd have to learn to tango some time in the 875 years to come then I'd be just the same as everybody else in the world. Can you get a flash of Methuselah at the age of 64 taking Tango lessons from Baldy Sloane up at Weisenfeffer's pedal parlors? And then having to survive for 850 years with the dance bug in his dome!
It seemed wonderful that the band could keep presence of mind to go on playing the "Merry Widow," instead of stopping short with a gasp and crash of instruments, to start again with the "Tango Trance," her dance in "Girls' Love." She flashed into the ballroom like a dazzling fairy thing, all white and gold and glitter.
