"And this Cunnel Cunnel " "Colonel Doolittle?" "Uh-huh. Will he help me, do you s'pose, to get my Little Hawss cured of his lameness?" "You may count on that." "Who else is comin' here to see you?" she inquired, as they left Little Hawss wistfully agaze at them across the old log fence. Layson, for no reason he could think of, felt a bit uncomfortable, as he replied.
Softly lighted, the whole colour of the place, with its vague values, was in cool fusion an effect that made the visitor stand for a little agaze. It was as if in doing so now he had felt a recent presence his recognition of the passage of which his hostess in turn divined. She had scarcely to say it "Yes, she has been here, and this time I received her."
Then the talk stopped dead as Istra Nash stood agaze in the doorway pale and intolerant, her red hair twisted high on her head, tall and slim and uncorseted in a gray tight-fitting gown. Every head turned as on a pivot, first to Istra, then to Mr. Wrenn. He blushed and bowed as if he had been called on for a speech, stumblingly arose, and said: "Uh uh uh you met Mrs. Ferrard, didn't you, Istra?
"Thou scrawled'st 'I mean' in rocks and men, in trends and streams; the prophets raved, to sages' ken Thou shewed'st dreams; Thou shrouded'st dark the How and When in starry schemes, and trends and streams." "The jungles blare, the glebe-lands low and bleat for Thee; the generations rage and go, agaze for Thee; creation travaileth in woe, with groans for Thee, agaze for Thee."
Talmage's distinction than that, like Elliott F. Shepard, he can be more kinds of a fool in a given time than any other man in his profession. That were indeed distinction enough for one man, well calculated to cause the world to stand agaze! Notoriety and fame have, in this age, become synonymous if not exactly the same.
He drew a breath of crisp air into his lungs, held his daughter closer to his side, took off his hat and stood agaze while the brisk wind, strengthening for the moment, blew the folk around him free of steerage odors, waved his long grey hair about his forehead and flapped his long grey coat about his legs until its tails snapped.
"Charlie, you must not!" cried Flora, returning half into the room. "Bah!" retorted the staggering boy, pushed out among them and with profane mutterings stood agaze. Out across the Square and the ever-multiplying flow of people through and about it, and over the roof of the French Market close beyond, the rigging of a moored ship stood pencilled on the sky.
It was as if her heart-strings had snapped asunder. What was it? What was it? She lay back among her pillows, trembling in the dark, afraid of she knew not what, her wide eyes agaze at the ceiling's shadows. And then after a long while she fell asleep again and once more dreamed. The wind soughed through her dream again, pitifully, wailingly, as it had often soughed outside the dugout.
To see them forever forward and agaze at the lit shores of Spain and the Islands of Desire, roused in him the faint savour of expectation. Which, however, did not prevent him from finding Naples squalid, and Rome, where he arrived in the middle of the tourist season, too modern in a cheap, second-rate sort of way.
Meanwhile Morris had returned to the dining-room to find Jessica standing agaze there. She had just come in; for, chancing to be in her bed-chamber, which was just over the secret hallway, she had heard Gering shoot the bolts. Now, the chamber was in a corner, so that the window faced another way, but the incident seemed strange to her, and she stood for a moment listening.
