He lit a candle, feeling that the doing so would impress his patient, and went round the room; not with catlike movement this time he wanted the other to hear him.
I'm not to be bribed." "Have you really a warrant for my arrest?" "I've carried it since Friday. It's no use, Mershone, the game's up and you may as well grin and bear it." Mershone was about to reply when the door opened and Diana Von Taer came in with a swift, catlike tread and confronted him with flaming eyes. "You coward! You low, miserable scoundrel!
Two deputies helped him in. He turned for a last look at Ginger. Her pale little face was twisted, but she waved a gay farewell. In a far corner of the lumbering machine Fred could see two catlike eyes glimmering. Slowly his gaze penetrated the gloom, and the figure of a battered man shaped itself, his two hands strapped to his sides.
In Joan's eyes, used to the obvious, clear beauty of Pierre, Gael was an ugly fellow, but even she, artistically untrained, caught at the moment the picturesqueness and grace of him, the mysterious lines of texture, of race; the bold chiselings of thought and experience. The colors of the room became him, too, for he was dark, with curious, catlike, greenish eyes.

He felt vital, joyous, confident. The Senestro was smiling, his eyes flashing with anticipation. His muscled body was a network of soft movement. His step was catlike. "What will it be?" inquired Watson.
Gawtrey himself did not seem to know much of the early life of this person, or at least he did not seem to like much to talk of him. The footstep of Mr. Birnie was gliding, noiseless, and catlike; he had no sociality in him enjoyed nothing drank hard but was never drunk.
This patch was the Lorimers' cottage. In spite of the haunting melancholy of his song, Thayer looked out at the cottage and at the storm with a feeling of supreme content. Lorimer hated storms with a catlike fervor; it was an old-time peculiarity of his, dating from their student days in Göttingen.
For the first time in his fighting history, men saw White Fang lose his footing. His body turned a half-somersault in the air, and he would have landed on his back had he not twisted, catlike, still in the air, in the effort to bring his feet to the earth.
