Taken utterly by surprise, with his mouth full of berries, he was bowled over like an overfilled bag under the force of Neewa's charge. So complete was his discomfiture for the moment that Miki, watching the affair with a yearning interest, could not keep back an excited yap of approbation.
Then Balance cried out with an exclamation, in answer apparently to a something I could not hear, "What, man alive! slept in the passage! there, take that, and get some breakfast, for Heaven's sake!" So saying, he jumped into the "Hansom," and we bowled away at ten miles an hour, just catching the Express as the doors of the station were closing.
"Don't tell me that young fellow's all there," said Colonel Horace Mant; "because I know better. Have you noticed his eye? Furtive! Shifty! Nasty gleam in it. Besides dash it! did you happen to take a look at the hall last night after he had been there? It was in ruins, my dear sir absolute dashed ruins. It was positively littered with broken china and tables that had been bowled over.
"We may see lions when we are trekking." Diana put her head on one side, like a small, bright-eyed bird. "We can see those in the Zoo, beloved." "Well, and you can see Norway on a cinematograph." Diana turned away with a low laugh. "Clean bowled. Good for you, O wise Hypatia!
Big and strong and swift, with fists like a blacksmith's, Kurt bowled over this assailant and that one.

But he told himself that he so rejoiced, and endeavored to be glad that he had not soiled his hands with riches which never would have belonged to the woman he had loved had she not earner them by being false to him. Early on the following morning he sent off his letter, and then, putting himself into a cab, bowled down to Onslow Crescent.
Joan began to sing as the car bowled up Fifth Avenue. Movement always made her sing, and the effect of things slipping behind her. But she stopped suddenly as an expression of Alice's flicked across her memory. "You'll catch Alice up, if you go straight back," she said. "Alice-Sit-by-the-Fire!
I'm as fond of you as ever I was, but you must know well enough if you make a bolt of it now there'll be no end of a bobbery, and everybody's thoughts will be turned our way. We'll be clean bowled the lot of us. Jim and I will be jugged. You and Jeanie will be left to the mercy of the world, worse off by a precious sight than ever you were in your lives.
