Indeed I never saw a chillier, less inviting looking habitation, or one that seemed to repel confidence in it more subtly. The road ran straight at it and then curved round the low wall that bounded the domains.
The soft, summer breezes of the first few days had given place to keener, chillier air. The fog ahead told of the close proximity of the Farallones. Heavier wraps had replaced the soft fabrics of the Hawaiian saunterings. But warmth and gladness, coupled with a strange new shyness in his presence, were glowing in her fresh young heart.
"It's the way of the North," almost sighed Roy. "Nothing goes on schedule in this part of the world." "Why should it?" grunted Norman. "When your journey may mean a year's delay in getting back, what's a few minutes more or less in starting out?" It was far after nine o'clock and the sun was dropping behind the southern hills the air chillier and the fog deeper, when Paul finally appeared.
It was the close of a chill October day, and a bank of angry clouds hung darkly in the western sky, while the autumn wind blew across the prairie; but colder, blacker, chillier far than prairie winds, or threatening clouds, or autumnal day was the shadow resting on Ethelyn's heart, and making her almost cry out with loneliness and homesickness, as they drew near the house where the blue paper curtains were hanging before the windows and Eunice Plympton's face was pressed against the pane.
Heap on more wood! the wind is chill; But let it whistle as it will, We'll keep our Christmas merry still. It was Christmas Eve, and the night being in a reminiscent mood, was chillier than usual. Adam piled up the logs till the whole room was full of the warm glow. "Let us hang up our stockings," he said, with an attempt at gayety. Robin spread out her hands with a gesture of comic distress.
There was "heroic gaiety" there: only, as usual with gaiety, it made the passage of a peevish cloud seem all the chillier.
Heavy mist covered the face of the river, and somehow the rapid seemed stilled to a deep, pervasive murmur. As he pushed his boat off, the morning fog was chillier than frost about him; but his heart got lighter as he rowed toward his night-line, and he became even eager for the pleasure of handling his fish.
For a moment John Baird paused before speaking to her, as he had paused before ringing the bell, and in the pause, during which he found himself looking into her soft, childishly blue eyes, he felt even chillier than at first. "Mrs. Latimer. I think," he said, baring his head. "Yes," she answered, "and you are Mr. Baird and have come to see Lucien, I'm sure."
Now he walked back, leaving the lights ablaze, and feeling as if the flat were empty. "I'll get out of this," he said to himself. Then the sheer loneliness of his situation rushed upon him in full. "Left me!" he muttered, and repeated, "left me!" The place that had been so comfortable, where he had spent so many days of warmth, was now a memory. Something colder and chillier confronted him.
You, with your pretended fear of death, wish to meet it in battle as eagerly as we do, and your most renowned men are those who have sent most to death." To this strange remark I had no answer to make. The air out at sea now grew chillier. The Kohen noticed it also, and offered me his cloak, which I refused. He seemed surprised, and smiled. "You are growing like one of us," said he.
