A group of Italian women, chattering and gesticulating in, apparently, unheeded unison, lingered near the shack where Brian lay, agonizingly conscious of nerve and body, irritably weary of the inevitable doctor at his bedside. Kenny charged them with a look of indignation and shooed them to retreat in maledictory Italian. Inside Joan was busy at the stove.
He knew by her voice she was ill, and his palpitating heart was wrung so agonizingly that he was constantly in tears. Now he was waiting for Jinnie, and the sound of the buffeting rain and the booming roar of heavy thunder thrilled him dismally. To hear Jinnie's footsteps at that moment would be the panacea for all his grief. Peg came into the shop, and Bobbie turned slightly.
There was a touch of horror in his voice, though he was evidently making an effort to control him-self. "I can't I can't remember." "What's your name? You remember that?" Tembarom put it to him. "N-n-no !" agonizingly. "If I could! If I could!" "How did you get in here?" "I came in because I saw a policeman. He wouldn't understand. He would have stopped me. I must not be stopped. I MUST not."
When dressed, the three girls went up to show themselves to the elders, who were in grandma's room, where Tom was being helped into an agonizingly stiff collar.
The sea, moved to her uttermost depths as she had not been in twenty-five years, resented fiercely the presence of the Columbia on her disturbed bosom. Madly she cast her from her; with feline treachery she drew her back again, and sought to tear apart her mighty timbers. Groaningly, agonizingly, pluckily, the Columbia bore all and revenged herself on her passengers.
Not able even to stand alone, awkwardly, agonizingly unable to mount his restive horse, his life was yet so strong within him! And on one side of him rolled the dust and smoke-cloud of his advancing foe, and on the other, that which covered his retreating friends.
Thank God! thank God!" and she threw her arms around me and burst into tears. I felt like one turned to stone. Was I mad, or were they? What had I seen in that one steady look of Annie's eyes? Was she really well? I felt as if she had already died! Agonizingly I waited to see Dr. Fearing's face.
Finally I made up my mind what she really meant by "her trouble," and I went back to her side. I found her moaning louder and more agonizingly, now: and in my turn I had my moment of panic. "Rowena," I said, "I'm goin' out to do something that has to be done. Will you stay here, and not move out of this room till I come back?" "I'll have to," she said. "I guess I've walked my last."
A glance told him it was empty; but he felt with his hands in all the dim corners, agonizingly whispering her name. There was no evidence here that any struggle had taken place. Running out to the outer room toward Charley's bed, he fell over a body lying on the floor. A touch told him it was the boy. He disregarded it, until he had made sure Natalie was not there.
"If I had only been regularly introduced to you, and all that," responded Mr. Magee, "I could make a very flattering reply." And a true one, he added to himself. For even in the faint flickering light of the station he found ample reason for rejoicing that the bit of cambric was no longer agonizingly pressed.
