The chief was among the first to return to the village, and as it was he that Tarzan was most anxious to interview, he lost no time in entering into a palaver with the black. The fellow was short and stout, with an unusually low and degraded countenance and apelike arms. His whole expression denoted deceitfulness.
And I sat there, perforce, by the campfire on the shore of Lake Temescal, and saw Vesta, Vesta Van Warden, kneel and remove the moccasins of that grinning, hairy, apelike human brute. " Oh, you do not understand, my grandsons. You have never known anything else, and you do not understand. "'Halter-broke and bridle-wise, the Chauffeur gloated, while she performed that dreadful, menial task.
With flexible wrists he swung the felt-covered mallets that brought up such resounding tones; at times his long, apelike arms would reach far asunder and, rolling his eyes, he touched the extremes of his cymbalom; then he described furious arpeggios, punctuated with a shrill tattoo.
What did beauty matter, now that it lay dead in the soul of the world, under the filth of battlefields, and the dirt of hate and cruelty, and the law of the apelike man? At first, in the beginning of the war, our officers and men believed that it would have a quick ending.
Through a curtained oval sidled a figure. Black and tall, its long and gnarled arms swung apelike; its shoulders were distorted, one so much longer than the other that the hand upon that side hung far below the knee. It walked with a curious, crablike motion.
The tramp watched him go with laughter. It was silent laughter. In the most quiet room it would not have sounded louder than a continual, light hissing noise.

He went expertly, swinging from car to car with apelike clumsiness and surety. Two cars back.
She knew that she was not mad, that she was utterly sane; and the conviction of sanity only intensified her awful discovery. She passed a trembling hand over her face, and felt the skin corrupt and green. Gazing into the darkness, she knew that her stare was apelike. She had felt, then, the fullest significance of horror.
A moment of madness, of blindness. But why do you take pleasure in tearing my heart as you do?" "As if I were thinking of you!" "Whether you are thinking of me or not, I am here, I see what is going on, and your coquetry pains me terribly." A slight flush rose in her cheeks at that reproach. "I, a coquette! With whom?" "With him," said the Irishman, pointing to the superb apelike bust.
His short-cropped, bristly black hair had been shaved off; the head was now bald. That head was destined to hold the mighty brain of Master Scientist Raymond Cram. On the second table lay a twisted, distorted thing, an apelike body with which fate had played grotesque pranks. It was hairy, of middle height, and its dark skin all over was wizened and coarse, almost like the bark of a tree.
I should rather call him an inverted idealist, for, with high hopes and generous expectations, he entered into the world, and lacerated by rage at the cruelty, foulness, and lunacy he there discovered, he poured out his denunciations upon the crawling forms of life whose filthy minds were well housed in their apelike and corrupting flesh a bag of loathsome carrion, animated by various lusts.
