As she put it on she heard a babel of voices in the class-room beyond, and she felt something like stage-fright as she fumbled at the hooks and eyes; but a clock struck the hour presently, and she went in then and climbed on to the throne. At first she saw nothing, but after a while she was aware of a group of men who stood near the door regarding her. "Carina."
The sailor stood for a while bewildered, leaning against the wall; then he stooped slowly and picked up his cap. But the moment he caught sight of Carina his embarrassment vanished, and his rough features were illuminated with an intense emotion. "Come, little miss, and help me," he cried, in a hoarse, imploring whisper.
Her husband had reached her side and taken her listless hand before Marina had noticed his approach; but there was no smile in her eyes as she raised them to his only a look of unutterable misery. "Is there no hope?" she questioned. Her fingers, weakly folded about his, were burning. He controlled himself with a great effort. "Yes, carina, every hope.
The strains produced in bones by muscular contraction produce hypertrophy of the part of the bone to which the muscles are attached and thus we can understand the origin of the carina of the sternum in flying birds, and its absence in flightless forms. In bats and in pterodactyls also the sternum is produced into a carina along the median line.
It was a hideous picture indeed, and Mr. Holt would have given years of his life to be rid of it. It was on the sixth day after Atle's visit that the pastor, sitting alone in his study, called Carina to him. He had scarcely seen her during the last six days, or at least talked with her. Her sweet innocent spirit would banish the shadows that darkened his soul.
It is the tied bird of all these fowlers." "Alas, alas! But I cannot understand," Molly wailed; but the other caught her the closer. "That you do not understand, Carina, is your salvation. It proves you immortal. Now go. No! kiss me, kiss me!" They were parted at last; and though they did meet again, they kissed no more.
If you had lived in Ravenna instead of Venice all your life, carina mia, you would know how infinitely absurd the idea seems of there being anything between the Marchese Lamberto and a stage singer, or of its being possible for him to regard her in any other light than that of a singing machine." "I dare say you are right, caro mio.
"Because, because . I can do nothing but tell you the truth, carina; because my heart is not free to present itself at Miss Van Siever's feet." "It ought to be free, Conway, and you must make it free. It will be well that you should be married, and well for others besides yourself. I tell you so as your friend; you have no truer friend. Sit where you are, if you please.
Cesare and I are the only ones here who will make you look human. It is a pity, as you are really carina." He patted her shoulder again and pinched her ear, and Cesare passed his arm about her waist. She struggled to free herself. "Let her go!" cried the other men, and, flushed and dishevelled, she took refuge on the throne. The pose was resumed, and the room settled down to work again.
Her fresh young face was almost white now and her eyelids trembled from time to time, while her lips moved though she was not conscious of what she wanted to say. "Ah, Teresina!" he exclaimed, with a nicely adjusted cadence of passion in the tone. "What are you waiting for, my little angel? It is time to love when one is young and the world is green, and your eyes are bright, carina!
