He was sniffing hard at the trail, turning sharply from side to side, his flews in the snow, while his nostrils avidly drank in whatever it was they found there, as a parched dog drinks at a water-hole. "Mush on there, Jan! What ye playin' at?" cried Willis. At the word of command Jan plunged forward mechanically.
I know not what manner of man thou art in the flesh, sir, but figure thee bearded and blackavised, and of a lean tortuous habit of body, that moves ever with a swish. Every morning, I swear, thou readest avidly the list of male births in thy paper, and then are thy hands rubbed gloatingly the one upon the other.
Was it a sharp foreboding of some such resort to savage violence that had tortured her into sending the appeal for help? With this, I fell to dwelling afresh upon the wording of her message, hungering avidly for some hint to give me leave to claim it for my own.
Garvan Spasso they had had no trouble in inducing him to come along was staring avidly at the screen as though he could still see the ravished planet they had left. "That was a good one; that was a good one!" he was crowing. He'd said that a dozen times since they had lifted out. "Three cities in five days, and all the stuff we gathered up around them. We took over two million stellars."
And to the Free Trader it was the extra and invisible crewman on every ship that raised. But there were deaths and deaths And Dane could not forget the gruesome legends Van Rycke collected avidly as his hobby had recorded in his private library of the folk lore of space.
He was to guard this plaything; particularly from the bearded intruder who was snatching so avidly for it. There was a sharp growl, a flash of fierce white teeth, a bound. One of Lad's snowy little forepaws was on the fallen pistol. And the rest of Lad's sinewy body was crouching above it, fangs aglint, eyes blazing with hot menace.
But it is one thing to meet casual peril, and quite another to fare forth in the dark among six savage men, all of whom are waiting avidly for the chance to murder. A braver warrior than Milo Standish might well have hesitated to face sure death in such a form, for the mere sake of saving a man whom he feared and hated, and whose existence threatened his own good name and liberty.
He had expected it to vanish at the sight of her. But her kisses had only hidden it. She came to his side after a pause and whispered gently, "Perhaps it would have been better if you hadn't come, dearest. I've become almost used to being alone." He embraced her and for the moment the sadness was hidden again. Rachel's hands crept avidly to his face, holding his cheeks with hot fingers.
Gibney questioned him and listened avidly to the horrible tale of privation and despair, McGuffey appeared to report a brisk fire under the donkey and to promise steam in forty minutes; also that the Maggie was hove to a cable length distant, with her crew digging under the deckload of vegetables for the small boat.
"Ghost stories are more comfortable in daytime," said Felix. The Story Girl began it and we listened avidly. Cecily, who had heard it many times before, listened just as eagerly as we did. She declared to me afterwards that no matter how often the Story Girl told a story it always seemed as new and exciting as if you had just heard it for the first time.
