"I am glad you have come," he began to say. "I wanted at least a word with you before I went on." Then his smile died out, leaving blank amazement which a breath's space later was alarmed questioning. He recalled later how for a second he stood and stared. Latimer's face was white and damp with sweat. Its lines were drawn and sunken deep.
He knew, too, that women cannot hurl projectiles without looking like viragos and fools. The weakly-feminine might burst into tears or into a silly rage and leave the table. There was a distinct breath's space of pause, and Betty, cutting a cluster from a bunch of hothouse grapes presented by the footman at her side, answered as clearly as he had spoken himself.
She would now, she felt, give life itself for the privilege of being back there and able to refuse the reckless plan of escape the captain of the Seamew had submitted to her. She did not for a breath's length blame Tunis for the misfortune that had overtaken her overtaken them both, indeed. She had accepted his plan with open eyes.
If I get it he'll get better and help me. Breath's hot, sir, but it don't smell nasty and fevery. P'r'aps it's only being too much in the sun, after all." "Thank you, Samuel," said the doctor, in his quiet, grave way, and he patted the man gently on the shoulder. "Thank me, sir? Oh, here's Mr Landon, sir." "Hullo, there!" said the professor, hurriedly entering; "what's the matter?
The tall mahogany-cased clock struck three, then four. The lawyer finished his cigar and lit another. He offered a fresh one to his guest, but the offer was declined.

This is a better smoke than I'm used to gettin' at the store down home.
"Sing me to sleep, daddy," commanded the autocrat. "Sing! I can't sing, kid." "Yes, you can. Sing 'Nellie Gray." "Too hot, girlie. My breath's all gone. Go to sleep." "Please, papa; pretty please!"
"Don't interrupt him, George," uxoriously suggested Lady Tamworth, "your father hasn't done talking yet." For George was getting terribly impatient; he knew, from sad experience, how much the admiral was given to prosing. However, the oration soon proceeded to our captain's entire satisfaction, after his progenitor had paused awhile for breath's sake in his eloquence.
It was Lord Westholt, and what more natural than that after an exchange of greetings the two should ride together on their way! For nearly three miles their homeward road would be the same. But in a breath's space Mount Dunstan realised a certain truth a simple, elemental thing. All the exaltation of the morning swooped and fell as a bird seems to swoop and fall through space.
He fought to drop into a clinch, for one breath's respite, his huge hairy arms slipping hungrily out about Denny's white body, but even as he snuggled his body close in, that fist lashed up between them and found his chin again. It straightened him, flung him back. And once more, before the certain annihilation of that blow, he ducked his head in between his shoulders.
Well, don't you know, when there's an epidemic, they rush 'em to the cemetery the minute the breath's out. No market for ice in an epidemic. Same with Embamming. You take a family that's able to embam, and you've got a soft thing.
