He came on two more quick, long strides, thrust his face forward and cried in a voice that rang out commandingly above the crash of the wind, "Drop that gun! Drop it!" Old man Adams had no intention of obeying; he had played poker himself for some fifty odd years and knew what bluff meant.
He can only gaze at Hanne, until Cerberus takes her in his giant's arms and bears her out. She is so light in her summer finery she weighs nothing at all! "Mazurka!" he bellows, as he returns, and goes commandingly along the ranks of dancers. At the end of January, Pelle obtained a place as laborer in the "Denmark" machine works.
One night, after loafing a week, he came home with fever spots in his cheeks and a curiously bright, strained look in his eyes. Fanny gazed sharply at him across the supper-table. Finally she laid down her knife and fork, rested her elbows on the table, and fixed her eyes commandingly upon him. "Andrew Brewster, what is the matter?" said she.
She admired him humbly, like a girl, like a little girl. With the most formal deference he helped her into the carriage. "Drive towards Shoreham," he commandingly directed the driver, and took his place by her side. Yes! He was mature. He was a man of the world. He had had every experience. He knew how to love.
One of the priests spoke sharply, commandingly, to Ee-pay, and the latter nodded not agreeably it seemed to me. "The old boy doesn't like these other chaps; priests, I take it," whispered Vic.

Still again both seemed yoked together, and an unseen tyrant driving them; the lean shade siding the solid rib. For be this Parsee what he may, all rib and keel was solid Ahab.
He felt that no one lived, outside the prize-ring, who could beat him on an even footing. "Take his gun away from him," Wade told Dorothy. "It's the second time you've disarmed him, but it'll be the last. He'll never carry a gun again. Take it!" he repeated, commandingly, and when she obeyed, added: "Toss it on the bed." He stood his rifle in a corner near the door.
If you spoil his pleasure with that hint of nut-crackers, I'll never forgive you." "I hope I know better," Guthrie smiled, coming to himself a little. "I am sure you do," said she, and turned from him to take her chair at table. "Then we'll bring him tomorrow," Alice said, seating herself. "This afternoon," said the visitor commandingly.

They looked at each other in confusion, and loosed their hold, but were still so agitated they could hardly rise. Olof handed her the shoe. "Quick put it on, and we'll go back." She put on her shoe, but stood still, as if unable to move. Olof flushed angrily. He was vexed at his own confusion, and with the girl as well. "Come!" he said commandingly, and gave her his hand. "We must run."
