"Many thanks for telling me about Jesus and His love for me. Sing " The sentence was never finished, but Paula's sweet voice rose, as once again she sang the sublime words: "There is no night there." "Is she dead?" I said, as we looked down on the still white face. "Her eyes are open now," said Mlle. Virtud tenderly, "in the City where there is no night!" It was a snowy, blustery day.
She had enjoyed her waltzes even at that charity-ball at the Pavilion, to which she had gone so unwillingly. The March night was fine, but blustery, when Mrs. Tempest and her daughter started for the Southminster ball.
You'll excuse me if I take him off your hands. I'll try to do it as quietly and neatly as possible." The big, blustery voice ceased and Michael, looking at the sinister gleam of dull metal in the hands of the men who accompanied the county sheriff, knew that the crisis was upon him. The man, impatient, was already pushing past him into the room. It was of no sort of use to resist.
It was too early for the throng of beribboned nurses and howling infants who usually haunt its benches. One or two pedestrians hurried across the garden, evidently taking the route to make shortcuts to their destinations, and not for the pleasure of lounging among its blustery attractions.
"There was a terrible storm in February but can you really keep a secret?" and then, as he nodded his head seriously, she went on. "It blew down a narrow piece of the paneling in the long gallery it is next to my room, you know and I heard the noise in the night and lit a candle and went to see. Some of the window panes are broken, so it is very blustery there in storms.
Muffled in thick cloaks, we faced the blustery night again. Behind the farm-house stood horses, saddled and bridled in an obsolete manner. Our small cavalcade wound up a hillside path, which, in the darkness, the beasts felt out for themselves. One became aware of cypress-trees on either hillside, immensely tall, to judge by the thickness of their trunks.
When Jimmie Higgins stepped off the train at Leesville, it was a blustery morning in early March, with snow still on the ground and flurries of it in the air. In front of the station was a public square, with a number of people gathered, and Jimmie strolled over to see what was going on.
There had been a shower that afternoon, one of those gusty, blustery, desert demonstrations which had wrenched the tents and torn hundreds of them from their slack anchoring in the loose soil. After the storm, with its splash of big drops and charge of blinding dust, a cool serenity had fallen over the land.
It was eight miles back; nevertheless he set out, of his own free will; tramped the eight miles, that wet, blustery day, and returned in five and one-half hours, bearing on his back a heavy load, over 100 pounds of most acceptable firewood. Sixteen miles afoot for a load of wood! But it seemed well worth it as we revelled in the blessed blaze.
This was possible if you had the right sort of influence and your passport the right sort of visés to accompany a Bescheinigung, according to the form of "31 Oktober, 1914, Sect. 616, Nr. 1083," signed by the German consul at Rotterdam, which put me in the same motor-car with Harvard, 1914, that stopped one blustery, snowy day of late December before a gate, with Belgium on one side and Holland on the other side of it, on the Rosendaal-Antwerp road.
