Fringed with darting flames the cavalry drove on headlong into the unseen; behind clanked the flying battery, mounted gunners sabering the dark forms that leaped out of the underbrush; on on rushed horses and guns, riders and cannoneers a furious, irresistible, chaotic torrent, thundering through the night.
By Romulus and Remus, what is happening to Rome? That falling star last night portended, did it, that a highwayman should dare to try to enter Caesar's palace! Ho there, decurion! Bring four men!" The decurion clanked in. His men surrounded Sextus at a gesture. "I ought to put you both in cells," said the centurion. "But you shall have a chance to justify yourself, Narcissus. Go on in.
A mail bag was dumped out of the mail car, another thrown in; some express packages were unceremoniously deposited near the door of the station by the agent; the conductor ran to the telegrapher's window to receive an order; ran back, signaling as he ran; the engine bell clanged, the drivers clanked, the wheels ground, the passengers sighed, and the train departed on its way.
The bolts were drawn, and the chains clanked, as the bridge came rattling down across the gloomy pass. "On! Spare not the spur!" and suiting the action to the word, the knight drove his spurrowels deep into his horse's flanks. With a single vault the steed cleared the ditch, and as he came down upon his feet, stood front to front with a horseman in armor as black as night.
I clanked into the hall like a captain of horse. The night was sharp with the first touch of autumn, and a huge backlog lay on the irons.

You wait and see." The young man got up and went back along the path toward town leaving the fire blazing in the wood. As he went through the streets the skates clanked in his pocket.
"Come on, let's get out," said Scott. They clanked out, leaving Douglas alone with Peter, and he fell into a long sleep. "If you break the heart of a thoroughbred, she doesn't even make a good cart horse." Mary Spencer. Late in the afternoon, when Douglas awoke, Judith was sitting beside the bed, chin in palm. Peter was not to be seen.
There on the great iron-studded doors he found, as he had been warned, the Roman parchment pronouncing him accursed, its sonorous Latin periods set forth in a fine round clerkly hand. He swung down from his great horse and clanked up the Cathedral steps, his attendants following. He had for witnesses no more than a few loiterers, who had paused at sight of their prince.
Heave away again, lads, and keep a steady strain on the hawser. It wants half an hour yet to high-water." The men again threw their weight alternately upon the levers, and once more the great pawl clanked once, twice, thrice; then a long pause and another clank, then a further pause.
Why see another day? why drink again the bitter cup of life when we may drink the waters of oblivion?" He walked through Pump Court slowly, like a prisoner impeded by the heavy chain, and at every step the death idea clanked in his brain. All the windows were full of light, and he could hear women's voices.
