Alfred lay in fear of her step, ten times harder than Harold's in his most boisterous mood, coming clamp clamp! up the stairs; and her shrill voice the same tone in which she bawled to her deaf mother, and hallooed to her girls when they were hanging out the clothes in the high wind coming pitying him ay, and perhaps her whole weight lumbering down on the couch beside him, shaking every joint in his body!
Mr. Clamp wiped his bald head, on which the perspiration was beginning to gather. His stock of pious commonplaces was exhausted, and he saw no prospect of calming Mark's rage, or of making any deep impression on the blacksmith. He therefore rose to depart. "Good evening," said he. "I pray you may become more reasonable, and less disposed to judge harshly of your friend and brother."
Jack saw the hand clamp upon the weapon even before Sudds rolled over. "What's up, Jack?" he whispered. "Behind Wash quick!" No need to tell the hunter to be quick. He was on his knees and the gun was at his shoulder in the twinkling of an eye.
If they all go on in this way, I sha'n't have a cent left. Everybody tries to cheat the widow" "And orphan," interposed Mr. Clamp. She looked at him quietly; but he was imperturbable. "We must begin to collect what is due," she continued. "Did you refer to the notes from Ploughman?" asked Mr. Clamp. "He is perfectly good; and he will pay the interest till we want to use the money."

The fearful struggle in the mind of the lonely woman in the chill and silent room, who shall describe it? She denied admission to the servants and her husband, and through the long evening still sat by the darkening window, far into the dim and gusty night.

I hoped to find you in a more complaisant humor. There are topics which cannot be discussed with the square precision of legal rules, thoughts that require sympathy before they can be expressed."

This nerve plexus ... which one was it? How important? How were the blood pressure and respirations doing? Was the Black Doctor holding his own under the assault of the surgery?
The air was so still by times that you can hear the rustle of the stars and the shifting of the northern lights; but the cold at night caught you by the heart and clamp it Mon Dieu, how it clamp! We crawl under the snow and lay in our bags of fur and wool, and the dogs hug close to us.
Zuilika, with a faint, startled cry, bounded bolt upright, like an imp shot through a trap-door; but before the little henna-stained hands could do more than simply move, Cleek's arms went round her from behind, tight and fast as a steel clamp, there was another metallic "click," another shrill cry, and another pair of wrists were in gyves.
