He was as happy as one of his restless nature could properly hope to be, but sometimes when he thought of Mary his heart ached a little; he forgot her only when his imagination set wing into the sunset sky. One other thing troubled him a little. Rude, plain Jennie was in love with him.
It's all I've thought of when I was in jail, to be able to see her sitting in her own kitchen with her hands folded, and me working and sweating in the fields for her working till every bone ached, trying to make it up to her.
I lay there, smelling the dark earth, and not being able to stir so much as the last joint of my little finger. Yet every nerve of me ached with sentience.. and I woke gasping, my face bathed with tears and the moisture of terror. From head to foot hot flushes swept over me. And I was stung with the pricking of a million needles, going in sharply at every pore!... was bathed in cold sweats.
It would make the yard look very cramped, she complained, and she should be compelled to have her row of poinsettias moved. And she very much doubted whether Jack would exercise any judgment at all about speed. Boys were so wild and rough, nowadays! Well, poor mother! She had not been compelled to enlarge the garage; but Jack's throat ached when he thought of that conversation.
Not only vision but sense pushed backward and inward, revitalizing what had been; until she ached with suspense and yearning, shrewdly evaded dangers, surmounted obstructions by action at once bold and wary and tasted the transfiguring rapture of the end attained.
Then she became conscious of shooting pains. Her head ached, there was a roaring in it. This was followed by a delicious drowsiness. "Try and take a little of this. The doctor does not think you are badly hurt. Fortunately the horse did not fall on you." Again it seemed as though the voice came from the distant clouds.
His head ached with dull persistence, the pain fostered in some way by his own bewilderment. To study the land ahead was like trying to see through one picture interposed over another and far different one. He knew what ought to be there, but what was before him was very dissimilar. A buff-gray shape flitted through the tall cover grass, and Travis tensed. Mba'a coyote?
Officials and detectives came and went during the evening, and looked about for traces of the robbers, and before night a description of the stolen things, and a most minute one of Joe, were posted outside the police-stations, and all round London for miles. A reward of twenty pounds was offered for Joe, and my heart ached to know there was a hue and cry after him like a common thief.
Bobby raised himself to a sitting posture. His head ached terribly he was stiff in every limb: a burning, almost intolerable pain gnawed at his thigh and at his left arm. But consciousness had returned and with it all the knowledge of what this day had meant: all round him there was the broken corn, stained with blood and mud, all round him lay the dead and the dying in their thousands.
Manifestly she had risen in her vocation, but he knew that her salary alone had never supplied the costume or the rings, and his heart ached. That night he sat at the Duchess of Huddersfield's table facing his fiancée, and for the first time he wondered if sang-froid or perfect equanimity were all that a man such as himself might desire.
